I am very disappointed to lose the new word, Sham.

"foremidamal" - A vastly superior version.

Stop picking on me and fai die, I am working hard to build fai's confidence, he is a harmless warrior and one of the few friends I have left, and of course he mimmicks what I say but hasnt quite got the accent lol

I hope he posts more often as him and I are probably on the same level which makes me feel more at home, if he can handle that. Haha

Briggs: I’ll fight Wilder for free. Winner takes all!

Former two-time heavyweight champion Shannon Briggs (59-6-1, 52 KOs) and WBC heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder (35-0, 34 KOs) have been going at it lately on various social media networks. Wilder is scheduled to fight TBA on January 16th in Brooklyn, New York at the Barclays Center. This is Briggs’ hometown so it seems like it would make sense. Wilder says he wants the fight but has concerns on whether Briggs’ purse demands may become an issue for stopping the fight from being made. Briggs made it very clear to Fightnews.com® that it’s not. “I will make this quite easy for you Deontay. I will fight you for free. Let’s do a winner take all. If you’re so sure you can beat me there should be no issue. You beat me and I don’t get paid at all. This shows you I am not all talk. How about you Deontay?” said Briggs.

Tyson Fury: World heavyweight champion stripped of IBF title

[Kiwi]

Tyson is stripped! Extraordinary.

This is good for the young bucks. Parker should be motivated by this.

Charles Martin gets a title shot, with his last 5 fights currently boxrec ranked;
187, 248, 96, 493 and 326
His last fight was the guy Izu just smoked.

Counting Bergman, JP's last 5 fights are currently ranked;
76, 122, 51, 140, and 89

Shows how much politics is just as important as results.

Thanks for looking that up, Gothe. Glazkov isn't much better than Martin with his opponents rankings. And one of these fools will really think they are a heavyweight champion if they win. I don't know why the IBF didn't get behind the Klit vs Fury rematch. Surely they wouldn't see Martin or Glazkov as a better champ. Glazkov is top 5 in three alphabets, I think. Martin in two. Would love to hear the alphabets governing body explanations.
