Its been a while (six months in Australia actually) I can't believe what I've missed! Finally it looks as thought a certain Mr Hatton came good as I promised over and over again that he would! I was so pleased for him. I imagine some of my American friends who post on the site were eating suitable amounts of humble pie! Bring on Pretty Boy - Gatti was terrible, as much as I love him he got it so wrong!
Better yet, this shows just how long I've been away, we finally found out how over hyped our friend from the the Far East was when Eric took him out - that also gave me alot of satisfaction.
As for Tyson.... well
It drives me mad, I spent ages on this website calling fights which I always get wrong and then am faced with a barrage of I told you so..... I go away and call Hatton over Zoo, Eric and the massive humiliation of Tyson and can't even brag about it....gutted.....its great to be back!
Let me say, welcome back to you despite not knowing you that well beforehand.
At least you didnt come back in good old "automatik" style and say, "remember me" as if ur really important. :D
Anyway a lot of shit has happened, people have come and gone in the past six months. Actually, having said that i have only been a member for 3 months. Welcome back anyway.
i was there mate, so i cant say im totally impartial but honest sometimes it drives you nuts the constant excuse making.
i do agree hatton fought an ugly fight but nothing overtly illegal, it was a rough fight from both men.
hatton was just younger and out hearted Kostya.
if the dethroned champ doesnt moan then i reckon we should accept it. there were no complatints for kostya which showed his class too. it was a pasisng of the baton almost. both men showed gr8 respect and that somethign to admire.
Was a great night for British boxing and its great to have a real linear champ inthe UK again. its been a while since lewis.
This all said though there are some real class acts on here, as im sure you too are aware.
dont wanna embarrass by naming but they know who they are cos i always take the time to chat with em, cos they are worth chatting too if you see what i mean.
its not all as bad as i painted in the first post :cool:
WELCOME BACK DUDE, AS FOR THE HUMBLE PIE ISSUE, ACTUALLY NO MOST DIDNT.
most tended to bitch on aimlessly about how dirty hatton is, and how he would Never get away with that in an American ring, err hello Tyson bit holyfield and was allowed to continue it was only the second time he did it it was called off) and despite Zoo doing his fair share of naughties himself what a pussy hatton is for hitting someone low back (after receiving several himslef) and that hatton is a wrestler cos he had a gamelpan to nullify zoo's right hand and based on this one fight cos thats all they have seen. :rolleyes:
zoo was then suddenly labelled shot to shit, despite the fact shot fighters generally dont go 11 rounds, have a cracked jaw and fight so long they piss blood for a week, they get ko'd.
Zoo was not shot when he fought mitchell so therefore he should not be ddmed as such vs RH. These were the very same folk of course who predicted hatton would get smacked all over the ring in general. :eek:
To be honest a lot of humble pie was baked, but not much was consumed and if it were then it usully came with a large belch of EXCUSE!, a few showed their class by congratulating ricky but on the whole it was a pretty piss poor effort from some people.
the good guys always rise to the top of course, and that whom i usually end up chatting too.
anyway hope you enjoyed oz mate, it sa nice place was there at xmas.
great to see you've clearly been keeping the british end up! love the ref to lots of humble pie was baked...very good. And yes as I am sure you can vouch for Oz was fantastic.
