    Seriously, I'm so sick Ima never going to watch boxing again. This disgusts me. It isn't the sport I've always followed. I'm gonna stop watching it. Between the weight crashing & the PEDs it has become evil. There is no space for skills, its all about being bigger & stronger than the other guy by all means necessary. I'm through, I quit. I'll never watch this 'sport' again & I'll never post on here again. I used to love & admire boxing & boxers but .... its over. You'll find me on Cricinfo & bleating about how awful Villa are but, Boxing, never no more, man, through.

    Which is why, as a fighter, you can't just half-ass the training and prep, like Manny did against Horn. Every opponent must be seen as a danger especially on their home turf.

    It gives newfound respect to Devin Haney for what he did and to Spence when he went to beat Brook.
    Good shouts, there. Let’s not forget the chief hombre of on the road fighters: Usyk (till I find out he’s doping like crazy, too)

    Chris talked about nobody monitoring and checking hand wraps just a bunch of crazy stuff in the UK


    Great Informative Conversation/Interview with Chris

    Right on. Ppl move on and forget with successful fighters.

    As I’ve said prev., Miller’s biggest “crime” was not getting big and successful enough before his test, and obviously doing it against the marketing machine that is AJ.

    W/all the others, their fails are never raised in the public eye, especially as they’re big brands in their own right.

    Benn is a big name, owing to his dad in the first instance. He’ll get the financial backing and then boxing scene is the only place that’ll remember his PEDs, sadly.
    I agree with you totally, it's just a shame it seems Connor Benn has taken that route, question marks are all over his resume now if there proves to be no issue with the testing carried out.

    Power that seemed to appear all of a sudden and I’m sure would vanish again if he was clean

    It boosts testosterone. How does that not help ? If it didn’t help why would Benn be taking it. Nah man, you’re tripping. Sorry.

    this is what happens when you get exposed as being a drug cheat. All your other victories are put in question. Don’t believe me ? Ask Lance Armstrong.

    Chris ain’t ****tt nor his fan base! How about that for yo ass!

    I'm sure that had no bearing on the result, unless someone's hand wraps are loaded, as with Margarito before Mosley fight.

    Benn knocked Algieri into la la land, that was like a Marciano ko of Walcott.
