    There is absolutely nothing wrong with having Russia as a neighbor.
    Do you even know the reason they invaded Ukraine? We would done the same thing if Mexico was to allow a foreign military next to our border. Ukraine allowed NATIO to have a military base right across from the Russian border
    u do realise that pu-tin & his cronies hark back to the soviet days & they want to bring that back, now russia has the biggest landmass in the world i think, they do not need new land yet most of east europe including the baltic states are terrified of russia, this if for a reason so they all join nato BECAUSE THEY WANT TO, nobody wants to lump themselves in with the likes of the russians because they know how that will clearly turn out, they want a western style setup not put-ins playpalace, its should be obvious what im saying, oh by the way there were reasons the soviet union collapsed & noone bar pu-tin and his cronies want to go back to that

        Nobody is gonna pay to watch Usyk fight Wardley or Usyk fight Kabayel. Both of those guys are unknown outside of the boxing circle. People know Fury, people know Wilder, people know AJ. I agree that Usyk should be fighting Kabayel, but it makes no sense from a $$ standpoint and if Turki wants Wilder that is who it will be.

          "nobody wants to lump themselves in with the likes of the russians because they know how that will clearly turn out".
          ----
          When I went to the Czech Republic, I noticed a lot of churches in Prague, all beautifully maintained, looked fantastic. I asked a couple of local people if they were very religious and they answered "no, but the Russians banned us from going to church, so when they ran off, it was the first thing we did - enjoy our freedom". Enough said, Russia are not lovely neighbours.

            Given Wilder's recent performances, do you think that a fight with Usyk will draw more revenue than Usyk vs Itauma, Wardley or even Kabayel? The oddsmakers will give Wilder nearly zero odds of beating Usyk.

              Much of Europe is unifying in the effort to keep Russia from taking Ukraine, because they know that if Putin takes it, he won't stop there.

Do you want to put some perverted twist on that, in your usual way? Meantime, Russia has annexed Crimea, is trying to do the same to the Ukraine and has military bases in many other countries. Try again.

                  A quick internet search says, "Experts say the cause of the military conflict can be tied to a complicated history, Russia’s tensions with NATO and the ambitions of *****. Ukraine’s ambitions to align itself more with Western countries – including its publicly stated interest in joining NATO, which itself was founded at least in part to deter Soviet expansion – has been met with aggression from Russia, the council notes.​"

                  Here's a source for you, in case you are about to shift goal posts or make some perverted twist on that in your usual ways.



                  As for Crimea, it used to be part of Russia. Was Iraq or Yemen or Somalia or Libya or Iran or Sudan ever been part of the US. How many military bases does the US have in over a hundred countries? TRY AGAIN!

                    I'm guessing the little typo is what confused you so much and you couldn't figure out what it meant?
