    One of those guys looks like Jonny Nelson! Has some kind of knee support too!

    Now we know about the roots of Sam Peter's great skills and technique - he mastered the rabbit punch to perfection...

    They smoke weed because it calms them down and makes them strong? I wonder what Angelo Dundee would have to say about that one.

    Very interesting link, thanks for that.

    If these guys utilized an effective jab they wouldn't have to wait so long for each other so they can try to counter. In other words, why do they fight a more "single KO punch" type strategy?

    Basically it's a whole new angle on the fight game :good

    I would think that the herb would def. calm them down a bit but it would also slow their reaction time you would think. :huh

    I'm thinking it's more along the lines of tradition, i.e. letting the community turn it into a longer event, but also necessary respect for that "thing" they call a glove. Remember how many punches were thrown in the old days of tiny gloves, or before that, the days of bare knuckles?

    Those guys would be insane to throw too many combinations given what's coming back at them.

    I'm guessing it's an African sativa strain. That would also explain why they are calling it hemp, since sativas have thinner leaves like wild hemp plants.

    Probably it's a clear "up" high, not "stoney" at all. :rasta
