Great thread, probably my all-time favorite at B-Scene.
Some more (apologies if some have already been listed):
- you justify taking a three-hour drive just to attend a clubshow because you heard of one of the fighters on the card
- the only time anyone at work talks to you is about an upcoming fight or a major fight that just occurred
- you talk your family into going to so and so for summer vacation, with your only reason being you want to attend a fight.
- you associate any given day with a fight that happened on or around that date.
- you can vividly recall the exact sequence of events that led to the Lewis-Tyson press conference brawl.
- there's never room left on your TiVo hard drive because you just can't part with any of the fights that are saved.
- your grade school kids have P4P lists
- those same kids enjoy a 45 minute drive on the weekend that leads to an hour of training in a hole-in-the-wall of a boxing gym
- Kassim Ouma's name is often brought up in dinner conversation
- You look at your $130 cable/satellite bill and say to yourself "That was a good PPV card last month"
- Discussion of GSP prompts you to talk about Gary Shaw, when the conversation is really about George St. Pierre
- Any mention of South Korea conjures up memories of Roy Jones Jr. suffering the most controversial defeat in Olympic boxing history
- You hear a song on a radio and can immediately recall the last time it was used for a fighter's ringwalk.Comment

-when one or more people are in agreement you call it a unanimous decision
- when you go for a jog you imagine you are Rocky, and your going to kick Ivan Drago's face in.
- If you trip up and fall over you call it a flash knock down.
- You get your girlfriend to try and hit you, parrying her wide ass slaps with your Winky like defence (I've done this)Comment
