    It's definitely "nicer" than "*Insert boxers name*, bomaye!" Not sure why that never caught on...

    This thread has potential. People tend to use certain words/phrases without thinking twice about them because they're part of the sport, but I've always wondered where/when certain words/phrases gained popularity in boxing.

    Anybody know when the phrase "on his bike" was first used in boxing or around the time people started to use it more?

        The term war was started by Mayweather. It's referred to his pot shot running style.

                      You just come off as real gay from your avatar to your Khan love and the way you post. You sound real Gay. My wife had a gay friend over reading this **** and he thought you came across as gay.
