That's the brutal truth from Cacace , hard to accept but true . -
very sad
was just reading about another sportsman a jockey who also died today after a fall a week ago i read that 60 jockeys a year get paralysed im shocked if thats true they dont get smacked ini the head day after day but its pretty dangerous too it seems with many broken bones and KO's as well from smacking the earth at speedComment

Massive respect for Cacace & for all boxers. 99.9% of us keyboard warriors haven't got the guts to do what they do. The death of John Cooney brings home the risks these men face. Slag them off, by all means, for technical inadequacies & for laziness or indiscipline, but NEVER call a fighter a quitter or a bum. You don't know, you haven't been there.Comment

I loathe Ryan Garcia, but I don't want to see him, or any man, get damaged. I would love to see him humiliated &, if possible, stopped in R1, but I never want to see any fighter get damaged. So far as I'm aware 'wastoid' isn't a word, but, fair play birdsong, I'm sure you're more plausible in your first language.Comment
