Can we Ban or Suspend Posters For Calling Fighters "Bums" ?

Lol.nope sweetie I'm not. Sorry you catched feelings.

Catched is not a word You answered my question though.

Yeah sorry I look for quality posting and not childish name calling on my Sunday morning. You got me good

It's a phrase in boxing. Fighters , trainers using it all the time. Before harping on about this term, how about you concentrate on racist remarks and the actual sport where we see WBA have 2 "world" champions at the same time and fighters not receiving prompt care e.g. Magomed.

The racists on this site get handled with fairly well IMO

But then we have guys calling Manny "Pacjuice" like come on, are there any grown people on this site?

I agree they shouldn't call fighters bums but that's the way many people talk and if they all got banned there would not be many people left to talk boxing with.

don't ban em, just put those posters in the ring with whoever they're calling a bum and see what happens.

quite a few went on my list after pac became a 'bum' for being ko'd by jmm (not only was it an insult to pac, but also cotto, margarito, barrera, morales, etc., so i ignored those gimps because i don't have reading time for them)

Fixed it to suit me.

Nothing wrong with giving out a warning, and if they keep it up a short vacation

That's the type of language you hear everywhere though. You would end up banning boxing writers, trainers, fighters, managers, promoters as well as fans.

It's a bit weird when someone on a forum calls a world class athlete like kovalev or hatton a bum. It's ok when fighters do it to other fighters cause relative to them a certain fighter might be a bum.

I don't think banning more people will solve anything, when you have a discussion forum some guys while always try to provoke rather then discuss. It comes with the territory.

Also i don't think people should be banned for racism if it's funny but i guess most people don't agree.

LOL @ Anybody who makes a thread commenting on post quality in NSB.

Calling dudes bums is the least of our problems.
