I thought this might make an interesting thread. Please use a bit of imagination guys.You get to spend a day in the head of a boxer of your choice. But let's be imaginative.Not something obvious like Carl Froch so you can look under the quilt at Rachael's lower section,or Vitali so you can spend every private moment crying about Lennox. Try to use someone eccentric,like Ibeabuchi going around imagining everyone to be his minions,or better still,pick a fighter and give him a completely different persona from the one everyone thinks he has. Being Margarito;Tony retires because he wants to fulfill his lifelong dream of opening and running a sanctuary for injured and/or orphaned butterflies Being Ricardo Mayorga;Turns out he's actually a sensitive soul who still lives with his mum and dreams of being an opera singer and struggling with his repressed homosexuality Being Brandon Rios;Bam Bam is actually a savant type genius,who is part of the top 2% highest IQ's in the whole world,and is only boxing to fund his ground breaking research into finding a cure for cancer. That's the sort of thing I had in mind.Thanks for looking and any ideas are welcomed.:good
Wow. This could get really interesting. Being Manny Pacquiao. Surrounded by "yes" men he doesn't realize that he can't run for office in America, but does so anyway. He goes around shaking hands and kissing babies and nobody has the nerve to tell him he's not on the ballot.
Being Wladimir Klitschko. Known for being timid in the ring, he is actually the ruthless head of an Easter European cartel which makes millions in human and weapon trafficking. Bring him a cold coffee or an ugly 16 year old sex slave and it is off with your head. As soon as the cameras turn on though, it is that big smile and Mr. Nice Guy.
Thanks. I've struggled with Khan already when I was thinking up the thread,and I thought of Bute actually being a complete pacifist with no stomach for battle who would rather do anything else other than box... But it was completely devoid of irony.:-( I said Chisora might harbour dreams of being a ballet dancer,but Valuev would be far better suited to that. He could have been all set to fulfill his dream until that fateful day when he went to the Doctor's for a "check up":shock: Now he lives a sad existence watching vids and looking at pics of him as a nimble 5'6 110lb Nuryev wannabe with Brad Pitt looks.:|
:|:| You're all big shitey *******s! This thread had ATG potential and you're only blanking it because it's too clever!:| Most of you won't be getting a Xmas card now so don't come crying to me when no card is forthcoming.:nono You probably can't read anyway!:bart
Being David Icke is probably a role only Daniel Day Lewis could handle. It would probably be like an LSD trip!
i've heard of the "easter european cartel". they dress up in giant bunny costumes and go round hitting people in the face with giant chocolate bars. and they're so powerful, that one day every year they have complete mind control over all the people, getting them to praise them at the alter and forcing them to buy huge quantities of chocolate. with the money made from this empire, they look to take over the "christmas european cartel" and have complete world domination. The *******s!
It would be even better if Vitali was in complete thrall to Wlad,and their closeness is actually a front with Wlad having Tony Montana-esque "if I can't have him,no one will" feelings about him. Or Vitali being Fredo to Wlad's Michael. "Come and shake the magic hand!!":scaredas:
