Too many long ass letters . Ruined my buzz

Didn’t Bread just criticize Richard Steele’s stoppage of Meldrick Taylor in one of the recent Mailbags?

Now he won’t criticize Steve Willis for his actions, saying it was just an honest mistake.

That seems like double standards to me. How is it ok for a referee to start a count, then stop it, then do nothing as the A-side fighter just goes to his corner to get assistance?

Listen to bread defend the establishment. Nah that was bullshht. Roach landed a punch and tank took a knee This guy saying that tank rolls that shot. Nah it’s on camera you tool. Breads actually defend it. Wtf. Psylie needs a mailbag because he calls things out and questions it.

'Another thing, there is a stereotype in the UK that people from the north (where I'm from) are tougher than people from the south. It's associated partly with the weather being worse the further north you go. I'm trying to think of the toughest British fighters and it might hold true – in general, most of the ones that come to mind are northern or have an immigrant background like Chisora who I think was born in Zimbabwe'

An incredibly silly remark. In truth, boxers from the UK predominantly come from East or South London, Liverpool, Manchester, Glasgow & Belfast. Because those are the mean streets, In recent years there have been a few good fighters out of Sheffield & Nottingham, purely because of Brendan Ingle, & a few out of Southampton but overall, fighters come from bad places. Boxers won't come out of Ripon or Harrogate,

Should have been a knockdown. Tank actually lost the fight, but his drawing power saved him. Comical that some were calling him an ATG, and even more comically, they probably still are. Nobody told him to wear braids.

""So here is what I saw. I saw Lamont Roach try to land a right hand. It looked as if Tank rolled the punch but it may have grazed him. Then Roach threw two jabs and they seemed to glance Tank’s eyes. After one of the jabs, it appeared that one of Tank’s braids sort of flicked in his eye. It seemed to aggravate Tank’s eyes. At that moment, Tank backed away, took a knee and then walked to his corner. Steve Willis began to count. Then Willis stopped his count. Tank got his eye wiped then the fight continued""

no thats NOT what happened LOL WOW tank got raked by a roche right hand took a jab and then a knee RAN to the corner and the corner guy wiped his HEAD LOL hard to believe people cant even get the basics right in front of their eyes must be unconscious BIAS im thinking or something!!!! LMAOOO

Bro, nobody called tank an ATG. He might barely sc**** the H.O.F... He's a damn good fighter though
