Iv got an idea! As a boxing forum full of supposed boxing fans and "experts" should we get behind the sports biggest achiever in the last year beating an all time great while being a big underdog in the champions home country on the champions own promotion or would it be a classier, better idea to make snide shitty little comments online we would never have the bollocks to say to his face?
What is the agenda here?
Have you ever done cocaine? It alleviates depression about the same way corn syrup does diabetes. Whether his mental health was already deteriorating or not, if he's been doing this shit enough it's going to be pretty hard to separate the two things. What's really stupid here is how short a time it stays in your system, if he tested positive that means he had done it in roughly the couple of days prior. I have no agenda and nothing against Fury personally, no idea what's going on with his mind, but you can either feel sorry for him and afford the guy all the slack in the world, or accept that he had some responsibility here and at the very least wasn't at all transparent or professional. The latter stance is far from unreasonable.
ok, how many who have resorted to the bottle have overcome their demons that way also?
Its pathetic. This is supposed to be a site where we celebrate boxers.
For years you lot have bitched how boring the Klitschkos made the heavyweight division. Along comes a massive breath of fresh air who says and does as he pleases, doesn't cheat unlike Vitality Klitschko who was pulled from the olympics. He gives the division a breath of fresh air and everyone loses their shit.
He didn't take cocaine because it was a sensible sane choice. He took it to escape the shit he has to put up with. It's a lot. He hasn't fought for nearly a year but is the most talked about boxer in the world for the past year. Imagine that? Imagine if he had actually fought.
The problem most have in here is that not only will they never be able to appreciate the pressure a fighter faces at even first fight amateur level they will never know the pressure the biggest best fighter in the proffesional boxing world faces.
