Re: Terry Flanagan v Orlando Cruz
Never understand why a guy talks it up so much, to the point of being a social hero, and then goes out and literally folds up completely. Credit to Flanagan for continuing to impress. Local kid Mason Menard has climbed into his top contender spot. After a couple more tests that could be an absolute shoot out.

Re: Terry Flanagan v Orlando Cruz
I'm sure there are lots of elite fighters and athletes of all sorts who are gay or bisexual and have never come out publicly due to the crap they would receive, Cruz just doesn't happen to be one on either front. Not to stir anything up or make false accusations, but isn't it rumoured Lennox Lewis was one of them? Frankie Gavin lost to a domestic level journeyman in his last fight, I'm sure there are gay men who would or would have beaten him. Not to mention in boxing you have weight classes, which don't mean anything in the real world. Anyone around the size of a Flanagan would get the shit kicked out of them by lots of gay people on the street, who cares? Only quite small minded people make this into an issue.

Re: Terry Flanagan v Orlando Cruz
Fury not a fan of Flanagan I take it? Better to be Gavin I guess. Rather be paid and then battered around than battered for free by your pals.

Re: Terry Flanagan v Orlando Cruz
Well done to Flanagan, he could've boxed rings round cruz with his eyes closed but he chose to go for the stoppage
Cruz didn't deserve this fight to begin with. He didn't show much desire but it wouldn't surprise me if he continues to get title fights just cus he is gay. Terry can move on to big fights now, he is in a good position in a good division

I mean it's a Man/Macho Sport at the end of the day and im only saying what most of us are thinking (but don't have the balls to type it out), when it comes down to it.
Personally (if I was Flanagan) you'd have to beat me to death within those 12 rounds to win the fight.
I Remember in the late 1980's - early 1990's (only Londoners will get this) there was a Huge question mark over the sexual orientation of a fighter named "Gary Stretch" ;D
Piss poor attempt at not being a homophobe. I sure hope "most" people here aren't so ignorant. Sad what monotheism did to the world. You probably aren't even aware thousands of years ago people were more progressive than you are now.
Make up for it by showing some thought, why is your post offensive to over 60% of the worlds population? (hint has nothing to do with how people feel about homosexuals)

It's like the Steve Hughes and Chappelle jokes about gays. "They're not tough? They f-ck men". ;D

Yes and he enjoyed it.
On a serious note Cruz needs to retire he has taken to many battering's around the ring.
