'My husband is a HUGE fan of yours and respects you immensely. Over the years he has often come to me with your mailbag'

Hi bread i love your mail bag so much that when my husband is screwing me i call out BREAD BREAD, what can i do?

[Smash]

'I think the eras before this era were better in terms of peak talent'

apparently i dont read the mail bag

[Smash]

'But as of right now Terence is past due on his bill and the entire world now knows his true colors'

Dont mess with this woman

[Smash]

'But there is still no proof that he screwed the WBC'

i think he has admitted that himself, he screwed the wbc because he believed they were screwing him

'I saw you on Pro Box TV doing the Roach vs Pitbull and Foster vs Fulton fights. Bro, you need a job. You called both fights exactly how the judges did. You had the right score both times. And you called a draw in Roach vs Pitbull at like the halfway point. I found it interesting that you weren’t card counting. You just said your score and went onto the next round. The Foster vs Fulton fight was easy to score. But Roach vs Pitbull was tight and you didn’t actually know who had won until the producer told you that you scored the fight a draw. You’re one of the best people in all of boxing. Salute Breadman'

So the foster fight was easy to score and the other one was real tight, ok then

I think Bread is being unduly harsh on Alicia Keys.
I would love for her to clinch me as tight as Haney bear hugs his opponents. Just for fun I'd break free knowing that she'd pounce on me even quicker and hug me even tighter
I'd never heard of Keri Hildon but having established that she's a beauty she can have a go at efficiently chasing me around the ring and cornering me along the ropes.
Perhaps Bread is right after all, there's room to appreciate both women's 'skills'

I would love for her to clinch me as tight as Haney bear hugs his opponents.

for this thread i think i will have to correct u here, as tight as bivol bear hugs his opponents

If I was, say, say a builder doing some work on Crawford's house, I'd definitely have my lawyer draw up a watertight contract. He knew what the WBC charge for the bill was before the fight. If he didn't like it he should have said something before the fight.
On the other hand, the WBC knew he was 'problematic' after he didn't pay them for the Madrimov belt win - they could have stripped him then.

First off, "Smoking Aces" Alicia Keys is definitely my type! Go New York! "Get On Up" Jill Scott is my type too! Salute to Philly! It's a damn shame Terence Crawford didn't fight Manny Pacquiao at WW before Jeff Horn! In fact, immediately after he dominated Viktor Postol, Crawford should've went to 147 and fought Manny Paquiao! Molina Jr., Diaz, and Indongo were totally unnecessary! Unifying 140 will never measure up to what beating Pacquiao would have done to enhance Crawford's legacy! Crawford demanded Pacquiao to come to 140, and that was the worst mistake of his career! Instead of Top 15, he would've been Top 10!
