ICB Where did you learn to play chess mate?

I'm not here to take sides or anything, because honestly i don't care.

but to be the neutral man in this situation, ICB you're contradicting yourself a bit. You say your personal life doesn't need to be shared in your defense of not posting a video of you boxing. Yet you talk about your matches in the Ask the Trainer section. I don't think anyone is asking what clubs you go to or where you live or anything. I don't see a crossing of the line into personal business, especially since this is a boxing board, and that you have shared your experiences with us verbally (well with text).

Again, i really don't care about this situation, nor do i care to see a video of one of your fights, but figured i'd mediate a bit here.

Alex_W wouldn't tell us his gym either :-\

Ok i put a picture up of my first Amateur fight, im the one in blue and your lucky to even get that. I fought at 154 pounds then and thats all im telling you end of, in future if its gonna cause this i won't even bother mentioning it.

Time for everyone to eat a little crow, apologies in order maybe? That's what should happen when you question a man's truthfulness and he pulls out the here's a picture of my back trump card.

What type of picture you call that ?

We can't even see your face, nor your club name printed on the front of your vest. I expected better from you Adam. I always respected you on here. Yet I'm disapointed with you, I have to say :-X

Now you're saying you were a chess prodigy and studied grandmaster games? :confused:

It seems a bit strange to me, especially when you said you can look many moves ahead, when in a 15 min online game top players wouldnt bother to calculate many moves ahead but would just play quickly according to positional factors like I mentioned above, there simply wouldnt be time for advanced calculations.

Also you never responded as to what openings you used which kind of makes me think you don't know the names, which simply wouldn't be the case if you studied chess.

I think the jury is out on this, but I think a chess computer was used, just my opinion of course, you could be some kind of autistic child prodigy who happened to be a genuis at chess but it's more likely imo that you own a copy of Chessmaster :detective:

YOU EVIL BASTARD! ;D

I dont hate you, I find you odd but I dont hate you.

Uhh i think your the one unable to detect a bit of giggle, notice the winks at the end of my posts ? and my sarcasm ? you take the piss out of me, i take the piss out of you thats how it works i thought ;)

The "young mans game" was sarcasm it wasn't supposed to be about boxing or anything, i notice you'll always the one to pick me or suggest im not an "Amateur boxer".

But i can assure you i am, so please do not assume anything about me because you haven't got a clue. Im totally different in real life i don't even take most of this forum seriously, its just a bit of a laugh to me, and to learn more knowledge about the game.

---

OK let me try and clear this up for you. Yes I am assuming you are not an amateur boxer, its my prerogative to assume, you make assumptions, we all make assumptions, its allowed, you assumed that you would be a better choice to front Bunceys boxing hour because you've actually boxed, that one bit you on the arse didnt it? You told us all that you lost your first bout yet now you are unbeaten, you post profusely on this forum yet somehow your fights, the leadup too and any evidence of are conspicuous by their absence.

If you do compete you've only been at it five minutes yet talk as if you've been at it for years. You remind me of Meuneok on the training board. One minute he's a fat bastard, the next he's some fountain of nutritional knowledge who somehow managed to cram a lifetimes worth of knowledge and experience into one Summer, however unlike Meunouk who was only too willing to show us pictorial evidence of his exploits ;D you have tried to fob us off with a picture of the back of 'someones' head.

I'd love to be wide of the mark on this, sadly though Im probably not.


Your whole 'setup' smacks of bullshit. You called me on it, you got it.

Just my opinion :-\

What does it matter anyway. The Guys got a Solid opinion on everything to with Boxing.

Didn't you guys read his post on Marvin Hagler....
































;D I had to slip that one in there....

But Seriously, Ice DOES have a respectable opinion, and to me thats all that counts.

Prove it then. Show us that you are indeed an amateur boxer. It could be video footage, factual knowledge that can be checked, whatever. Can you prove it?

---

Im not showing or telling anyone my personal business, and i've already said that on another thread. I don't have to prove anything to anyone on here.

I know myself and to be honest i don't know anyone on here personally, and i certainly wouldn't trust anyone on here in real life. I only tell people certain details about myself on the internet and thats as far as it goes.

The only people who know full details about me on the internet, is friends i know personally who i have known for years. And to be honest what the hell has this got to do with me and CGM ? everyone's on my back in the last few days wanting to know this and that, sorry but you can all stick it where the sun don't shine.

---

I was really surprised when you put pictures of your Girl on here, because I know how protective you are and that you don't tell much about yourself, so that was a shock that you posted her up on the net

two things one i never said i lost my first bout thats BS, and secondly the Steve Bunce thing was a joke and thats about it. The other stuff isn't worth replying too and i haven't got the time to go back and forth.

Lastly i still think your a tosser ;)

I'm trying to wade past the absurdity of this all.

I have one question though, why would you be so secretive all the sudden? You had a picture of some dude in a hat as your avatar not that long ago. Before (or after) it was your girl! Why would you post a picture of your girl but not be willing to post more then a picture looking up the back of some kid's shirt?

That seems awfully contradicting. I wouldn't give you shit for not posting information that's your right I guess, but when you've been open before and now are calling us lucky to get a picture of your back? Yet we got a picture of your girl?

Its all very strange really.

Nobody should need to hand out personal information, but I think when people make claims about themselve they should be able to back it up when called out. The inability to do so is bound to raise suspicions.

You did though ICE, I wont name names but other people have commented on it too.

It wasnt a joke, you can pretend it was but I along with everyone else and more importantly you know it wasnt, you were pulling the same stunt all over the place 'Ive boxed so I know better' If you'd ever boxed you'd know that......'

Im affraid a teenage boy who plans on supporting his family by selling old playstation games calling me a tosser carries little weight.

Sorry, was probably sarcasm again on your part. Something you couldnt spell five minutes ago let alone understand, now all of a sudden your a master of :rolleyes:

ICB and Memphis?

Both interesting characters.

But which one is better?

There's only one way to find out.












FIIIIIGGHTT
