guys important we gotta make a difference here

[J !]

it saddens me to see there is more and more insults being traded and less and less boxing discussed.

This place at times is turning into a war zone and we could do without it, if people put as much thought into their boxing analysis as they do their insults (though i do admit some are funny) the this would be the Bible of boxing websites.

As it is, its pretty thin on displays of boxing knowledge at times and i know some of you guys are better than that.

I think we need to up the ante here people lets talk more boxing and less insults and verbals.

If the knowledge that some of you have could come to the fore it really would help attract some more high brow posters, maybe even fighters and trainers. I know it happens on other sites, so how cool would that be you could actually discuss careers and fights with the people involved maybe even some of your heroes.

At present this aint gonna happen cos there are too many people giving each other ****. Its a shame you can help Rick and boxing scene here or you can keep this petty bollox up til all you have left is a bunch of guys taking the piss out of each other.


its up to you guys, but I for one am getting pretty tired of wading through 1700 posts to find one that might be boxing related with any substance, come on guys you can do this

Agreed...I can't count how many good threads get turned into a **** talking thread, because someone wants to insult or stir up old beef..

[boxernyc]

I absolutely agree. Sometimes there are just no threads without any of this bashing. I come here to discuss and learn, not to see people engage in petty arguments over the same crap that they have been talking about for months. It has really soured me on the board. I haven't been here that long and I like it here but it is getting ridiculous.

I also agree that the people who have deep boxing knowledge need to use it more. I myself have not followed long enough to give a lot of insight, but I try to when I feel I can. Those who have been following for a while could make this board great by offering up knowledge that would help us all learn a thing or two.

well guys I can tell you that thsoe who have responded already would be amongst those whom I feel have knowledge and do try and raise the standard.

Im not saying we cant have fun and a bit of good hearted banter never hurt anyone, I know ive been guilty in the past of "letting people have it" but Im gonna try and stop raise above it and try and impart what I do or dont know in some cases.

I think its apprent its pissing Rick off and without being smarmy or ass kissing he puts a lot of work in here and deserves better on the boards.

At least we got a nucleus of guys here who know thier stuff and we can help turn it aroudn guys, its just takes a bit of discipline and little thought.

thanks for "singing from the same hymn sheet" to coin a phrase lets see what we can do team!
