    No, there's been 3 match cancellations (below) over the last week, so I made a point of limiting my additions to that range with 4 new matches. But thanks for your standard issue snark.

    Willy Hutchinson vs. Zach Parker
    Lester Martinez vs. Joeshon James

    Well there's significantly more than January, i thought Kirk said there would be 20 fights a month and this is double that.

    It's not a snark though, I rejoined because I thought it was more streamlined this year with about 20/30 fights a month.

    If it's going 40+ every month I won't be able to keep up, which is fine. But I'm going to make observations regardless of your emotions.

    Kirk never said anything concretely, it was a suggestion. To which I responded that we needed malleability, because the number of quality fights shifts from month to month, also there's NEW MATCHES being announced daily, hence why we've needed the yellow coding for many years now. Some months are busier than others. So by limiting it to 20, we're potentially sacrificing countless important matches. For example the fight list I compiled for November of last year was in excess of 70 matches. I get the complaints. But the November Fight list I compiled in November 2023 was 51 matches. No one complained.

    This month it's 41 currently, and you're bitching. When my initial Fight List for this month was 38 matches, and you weren't bitching. Even when Pinoy handed the Fight List making over to me, most months were in the vicinity of 50-60 matches. Also never noticed you bitching. January is always a weak ass month (there 26 matches I added), then things kick into gear around February and maintains that pace the rest of the year. So in all likelihood, it'll remain in the 35-40 fights per month vicinity. Which is a far cry better than 70 matches per month like it's usually been being.

    So don't worry. Nothing is creeping up, it's still well within an acceptable range and the matches that have been added are quality and very competitive.

    To be fair, last year there were more than 70 fights a month so this year is much more manageable. Also, January was quite small mostly because there was very little going on while February has a lot more action. I too would like to keep it at about 30 fights but I am just explaining why February was so different from January.

    Yes I've always dropped out after a few months due to the size of the fight list. Call it bitching all you want, i don't care, I'm not emotionally invested in this im saying why I rejoined.

    Good luck in the league.

    I appreciate your answer, I just cba with the person running the league getting so irate because I pointed out the fight list has started increasing again.

    I'm just gonna duck out, the league is supposed to be fun, not feel like a chore and certainly not be free from observation.

    Good luck in the league mate.

    Well rest assured, the size of the Fight List this month going forward, will be the standard list size. As Fogger just pointed out, January is always a **** month, which as a longtime boxing fan and League member you're well aware of. So as usual with you, because you're a passive aggressive **** starting twat, that was just another example of your disingenuous needling. Now watch you'll pull the, "I didn't do nuffin card!" like you always do. Even your BS about me being irate is a blowing my return snark out of proportion.

    Good riddance, you f***! You're P4P the most despicable poster on this site. You're a quitter, and have been starting and quitting the League for the last decade. Simply more of the same, with an added dig in an attempt to make me look bad.

    Won't you reconsider? February was filled with tons of fights - mainly due the schedule from PBC, Top Rank and the Saudis. I doubt most of the upcoming months will be this packed. A lot of people have left the league for different reasons, and it is understandable. But please do consider, because the more people there are, the better is the experience as a whole.

    Just look at his reply above, i made a comment about the fight list increasing in size, quite a light hearted observation and he's absolutely lost his ****. I rejoined for fun, not to put up with that childish nonsense.

    You're entitled to your opinion so stand whatever you want to stand. I'm sure plenty of others will enjoy your league this year.
