    Guys is just me that has noticed that in the last few months the amount of fights called off because of injury has gone crazy.
    Strained back,knuckle damage,rib damage, in growing toenail,bacterial virus (common cold to you and i)you name it we have it as an excuse.
    Is it boxing or tiddlywinks guys.

    It's nothing new.

    Boxing is a grueling sport and guys get injured.

    Things happen.

    Stuff like that happens, it's normal. Pisses me off as well and I'm pretty sure it pisses off the boxers too so just hope they reschedule, looks like Mosley's wife doesn't want to.

    its a phyiscal grind to be a boxer, something i wouldnt know about that much so I can't really knock em for it as long as its a reasonabl reason. But like i said in another post, boxers are pulling out more than porn stars lately

    I've heard a few guys say that.

    Tyson for one.

    Ali said the fight is won not under the lights but in the gym and on the road.
