Re: Is it me or do the new posters seem to know nothing about boxing?
Actually I'm probably the most knowledgeble person on here. I've never been wrong about anything ever, not one prediction wrong and all my opinions are always well thought out, balanced and researched.
It's not just here either, I know more about stuff than anyone I've ever met. Everyone I meet is always wrong and their opinions suck.
I see myself as analagous to Lancelot in that I travel the world, well geeky internet forums at any rate looking for an intellectual (I'm no good with a sword :P) superior.
To date I've not met anyone capable of holding my jockstrap but I will continue my search, hopefull of eventually meeting someone with the same brilliant mind as myself.
Edit. Damn X just got one over on me on the Greatest Robbery thread, guess I've met my match. Typical I've been bested the moment I trumpeted my own trumpet. :-[

Re: Is it me or do the new posters seem to know nothing about boxing?
An all-CAPS-typing-douche!
Anyway, It's an astute enough observation, but it's every fight that brings a new batch of sh!+-talkers. Granted, I'm no oldtimer myself, as SADDO is concerned, but I lurked long enough and I'm well versed in this sort of thing as a generalization.
Rest assured, any bum that pulls a fluke will bring out bumfans en mass.

IMO, this is the most knowledgable boxing board on the internet, and new members help keep it that way by sitting back and learning like I and so many others did. Come up off your soapbox dude because....you haven't shared the abundance of knowledge that you claim to have with us yet. You make some good post and I wonder how you got your CC/SC ratio and then I see some more of your post where you are just ignorant to no end. Hope no new members take this jackass seriously.
I hope you weren't talking about me seeing as how i started the topic, because if i offended you that wasn't my intention..if you'll notice i didn't name any particular poster..i just made a statement and that was that..
by not naming any names i let the age old statement of "if the shoe fits, wear it" speak for itself..and those that got offended must have felt like the topic was posted towards them... so again if you were offended then oh well..that shoe must fit nicely, that is if you were offended... ;D

Offended? No way. I joined 3 days before you ;) Completely disagree with the post and fail to see what it would accomplish? :thumb:
Re: Is it me or do the new posters seem to know nothing about boxing?

I'd have to agree with that and those threads have created a Sal cult group!! OR it could just be that rather than cuss you,people just sad click? Not me though,I'm part of the cult group of fans!

sal is a mentalist plain and simple
....but he is a loyal fan and though he bangs on about the size of gloves a little too much he is pretty funny at times ;D
Re: Is it me or do the new posters seem to know nothing about boxing?
Agreed completely Sal. Not to boast, but we seem to be better then most forums in terms of knowing how to state an argument without resorting to personal insults. Boxrec has to be the absolute worst at that as some people there seem to have a genuine hatred for other members. Then there is boxingscene but I like that site so I'll cut it some slack. Don't know to much about Eastside and Doghouse.

Ive been here over a year and picked joe by UD . But i can see what they saw in lacy, brute force and calzaghe hadnt exactly stepped up his competition in quite a while.

See i thought I knew a lot about boxing. Within my first 5 posts, Britkid came flying along and in the nicest way possible put me in my place. This forum is definitely full of some of the most knowledgable boxing fans i've ever encountered, one day I hope I'm close to guys like Britkid and the like.
Same here.
My first day on this forum I filed away a 'note to self' that I should never EVER argue with Britkid concerning boxing.
I respect his boxing knowledge & his considerate way of correcting me if I'm wrong.
Which I've never been. 8)
My only critisism of him is that he keeps my Morrison/Mercer wound fresh by his constant posting of pictures like these...
