    MS: First of all, boxing is a totally unique sport. Boxing is the only sport where a boxer has a license to kill. If a man hits another man, and the other man doesnt get up, no one goes to jail. Inside the ring, theres no difference between boxing and war. The ring is the theater of operations, with a Geneva Convention called a referee. Everything else is a childs sport. Boxing is controlled aggression. When we (Jones Jr.) fought John Ruiz, we went in there to break his nose, get him to breathe through his mouth, target his chest with shots; essentially reverse CPR to slow his heart rate. Tarver was lucky he didnt have his jaw broken, because that was the goal in training Bernard. I consulted with surgeons as to how to break a jaw. We called Tarver a cobra, because cobras only have one type of attack. I had Bernard Hopkins reading about mongooses, an animal particularly effective in killing cobras. So what Im getting at is that all the other sports pale in comparison. Boxers literally have to look out for their lives.
    lol, that guy is crazy. Trying to really hurt/kill the opponent. Ruthless!

        Cos it sells pay-per-views and tickets to the casual fans. It's a business as well if you didn't know......

                  Yeah right, Did you see any of the press conferences? Joe looked like he went back to his hotel room and started throwing **** around because he couldn't think of anything good to say when B-Hop was making him look like a meat head...

                    i don't think so, i'm not a 100% but i haven't seen or read anything on shilstone being with roy in the rematch, i know that he helped jones drop weight to fight tarver their first fight, but i've look and couldn't find anything saying that he was with him in the rematch.................

                    can you provide any info??? i've looked, can't find anything backing that up.

                    all i get is that he helped roy moving up to heavyweight and helped him drop back down to fight tarver the first fight............

                    source???????????

[details]
                      Calzaghe is a great talker these days but he falls short when he tries to qualify things with his past resume of confrontations, characters, ect.

                      Joe is not being underestimated by anyone, but he's so wound up you would think he's getting laughed at.. Makes no sense to me..
