    If Nick Kyrgios self imploded (or spontaneously combusted) I definitely wouldn’t want a reversal.

    Struth cobber, you’re preaching to the choir.

    I love ‘em all, Rocket Rod, Stolle,Ken Rosewall, Evonne, Newk, Cash, The Woodys etc.

    If I’m salty about anything, it’s that Margret lost to that goose Bobby Riggs.

    LOL, he can be a real 24 carat tool, can’t he? Wonder how his domestic violence case is going.

    She would have won in my view. He’s a knob.

    How about handing the WBA title to Frankie Duarte when he was robbed of a great comeback story victory from Bernardo Pinango?

    Nelson had a history of doing that against opponents he did'nt feel were at his level.
    He would'nt dedicate himself 100% in training and it would show in the fight, but when the rematch would come Nelson would destroy that same opponent.
    It happened against Azabache Martinez, against Jeff Fenech, Gabe Ruelas, and Jesse James Leija.
    Nelson would won all of those 2nd matches by way of dominant KO's.

    Fenech did get robbed in that fight

    But that was just one of many WBC robberies.

    Its a nice gesture but the WBC corruption should not be forgotten.

    Nelson was a Don King fighter

    Like Chavez was againat Whitaker and Randall II - two orher travesties

    Good points. This will just make everyone remember how corrupt the WBC was. There were so many WBC and WBA robberies. Acknowledge all or none at all.

    Bobby beat Margaret on Mother’s Day no less, and at age 55.

    Yeah, the so called Mother’s Day massacre. I think Margaret was overly tight and nervous for the match. She had everything to lose while Riggs had everything to gain.
