    Poorly advised I'd say, no way should he have agreed to a rehydration clause.

    Super six was still more than ten years ago. Although, the bantamweight one was just four years ago. I guess that counts.

    Its killing its self
    I said years back if the corruption continues
    The Olympics will drop it and with that goes its credibility
    The corruption seeped from the fruit
    Right to the root
    Cant wait till the Olympics put ufc in boxing's place
    I will **** myself

    I'm still waiting for naked mud wrestling, female division and only up to around the middleweight division. Only problem now is you'd have all these non- biological, pre- surgery women with their junk flopping around.

    Kambosos although I tipped him to win. Still a great win happy for him and for our country. Because he beat a true great. A guy that dethroned Loma in his fight before.

    Tank vs Garcia and Crawford vs Spence this year great to see top level fighters go against each other.

    Happy For Mr Tszyu. Beat the haters, stuck it up all the jealous ****s that wanted him to fall. Said he couldn't do it, getting by on his fathers name etc. Made it all the more sweeter.

    On the weekend. Still havn't seen it. But that was a great surprise and I'm glad it happened. I thought the fight was a joke and would end via 1st or 1nd round K.O if Fury was dinkum or it would just be an exhibition.

    Douglas beating Tyson.
    Tarver beating Jones
    Green beating Jones, tipped Green and Jones was passed it though. Still happy.
    Also happy when Wood beat Mundine, also tipped it.
    Seeing Hopkins K.O Trinidad, also tipped it haha. Was great.
    Kostya on Judah, Bradley and Marquez vs Pac and Barrera on Neesham. Satisfying results.

    Joyce vs Zhang. I never liked Joyce but didn't expect Zhang to completely wreck him like he did, twice. Was awesome.

    Chris Billam-Smith pushing The Okolipus' **** in, and having a ref that gave him credit for the knockdowns, who also docked that scumbag points for holding, making it virtually impossible to rob him.

    One that has alway's really stuck in my mind, when Frank Bruno ( by hook or by crook) beat McCall for the WBC strap.


    The UK's feel good factor was off the bloody scale, and I don't think it'll ever be beaten for a heavyweight bout ever again, TBH.

    When Leigh Wood humbled Michael Conlon by knocking the cocky little ****er out and through the ropes.
