    One thing I really like with Boxingscene.. that I often talk about.

    Is talking with posters of different nationalities and different countries... I actually like it very much. It makes you closer to the sport discussing and debating fighters with fans from their actual countries...

    When I talk about boxing with my friends here, I find myself constantly saying... well I was debating with a friend of mine online from the UK about the Calzaghe fight... or I was talking to a guy who lives in Puerto Rico, what it's like when Cotto comes home from a fight.. or I'm cool with a guy in Australia who is a big Michael Katsidis fan.

    I thoroughly enjoy that part of this forum, whether I am arguing or BSing with someone, it's pretty cool to bull**** with people from all over the world, with all different views of the sport.

      Its pretty damn true... I mean, before I never knew much about other countries... and I still don't know a **** load, but at least when I have been here I have still learned a bit about what it is supposedly like in different countries if you get me?

      Truth is, sometimes the arguing is fun... me and LA BAD BOY are constantly arguing about ****... but we have a laugh with it too... and truth is even though we constantly argue we still have a laugh when talking about Charlie Z.

      I bet you are always saying to your real life pals 'Ah, there is this Mayweather fan from England... hes 17, hes the most awesome guy I have ever spoken too... if I had the chance to ditch all you guys and become best friends in real life with him, I would do it in a heart beat!'.

            You're a great poster Spacey... a Floyd fan that's usually calm and respectful, you defend your fighter but you are always logical with your defense. You usually call it like you see it.

                It is indeed awesome. It really makes you realize how much of a global sport it is. Especially in America, you feel like you're living in a box sometimes...

                  Floyd is my favorite fighter, but if he does something that pisses me off and I disagree I will call him out on it, just like when he started getting racial a couple of months ago, if I see no problem with certain things... I will defend it in a debate cause myself I don't see anything wrong with it.

                  Sometimes I am wrong, but if I am proven to be wrong I will say my bad I ****ed up there.

                  Anyways, without trying to sound soppy and ****... your a good poster here too... your sarcasm cracks me the **** up more than anything.
