my money is on pikachu lol...
I'm not sure what his size is in scale, but i don't reckon he'll make the weight!
damn it!!!!! and I read his training camp went so well!!!! ;D
yeah he is doing velocity training he may come in a bit light aroung 5 Kg's but he'll be real strong.
Like several million overweight. I thought he was just a little guy??
He went to the same neutitionist as BHop before the Tarver fight ;D ;)
Re: Do your friends like boxing?
i got a few of them into it. it was quiet easy as well.
Re: Do your friends like boxing?
I usually talk to them about it and when they come around,I might put on a few clips. The only fight they have ever watched from beginning to end is Corrales v Castillo,they were shouting and stuff when that was on! A testament to a great fight!
Re: Do your friends like boxing?
I went to an amatuer fight a while back. When I was talking to a fighter after the show, it was like we were hungry to talk to each other because noboby knows about the sport. Its almost stunning to hear other people talk about fighters that aren't mega stars.
If I meet other boxing fans the conversation immidiatley becomes intense.
Re: Do your friends like boxing?
Me and my friend (who never really agrees on anything) constantly argue over boxing and ufc. He says there's more action, i say there's worse technique, the debate could go on for hours. I also find that if you find a fan of boxing they have a lot to say about the sport.
Re: Do your friends like boxing?
Well out of our group of 12 or so.....only one other of my mates watches boxing and thats only becuase i make him so i aint sat up at 2am on myself! Even he aint into it like i am though he just likes the biggest and best fights.
Re: Do your friends like boxing?
I don;t know about you guys but when I meet someone who knows even Corrales Castillo etc are,I get so happy!! Seriously,I meet peeps,ask if they like boxing and they say yes,their fave boxers are Mike Tyson,Lennox Lewis,Naseem Hamed etc etc all retired,semi retired fighters! I ask them if they know about the big fight coming up(ie Pacman Erik) and they'll look puzzled and that's when the conversation ends!
Re: Do your friends like boxing?
More fo the people I work with rather than my actual friends like boxing. I work on a building site and for a supposedly dieing sport, it's still very popular among working class men.

I suppose that in the UK at least, the late 80s into the early 90s was the most recent of eras when boxing was very popular and mainstream here, though it is in resurgence at the moment, with the return of high-level boxing to terrestrial TV. I guess a lot of people here if asked about boxing would mention those same fighters, because those are the faces that they remember seeing on TV after coming home from the pub.
