Re: Introduce yourself to the NEW POSTERS here...
WOW I got to this thread late!
My name is Carlo. I live in the suburbs of New Jersey and watching boxing has been a part of my family for god knows how long. I've been a part of this forum for a year now and it's easily one of favorite places to be.
Ali vs Frazier III gave my great grandfather a heart attack because he was Frazier's biggest fan so I can add that to a list of family diseases: hypertension, diabetes, and boxing!
I'm 24 years old. I used to be a Environmental Health Specialist but I quit that job and now I'm a volleyball coach for my old college.
My favorite boxers are Pacquiao, Pavlik, Cotto, Ali, Leonard, Tyson.

I actually just read something about Air Traffic Control Officers. They are apparently the highest paid positions you can attain without a college degree. They're up in the 6 figure annual salaries. I don't know if they require a degree where you're from but that's a great job if you can get it! GOOD LUCK!

Im also probably P4P Saddo's biggest Hatton and Calzaghe hater
Just wondering, why do you hate Hatton and Calzaghe so much? People from England aren't supposed to hate their countrymen. I think AL also dislikes them very much and he's also from England. That's like Puerto Ricans not liking Cotto or Filipinos not liking Pacquiao..I'm curious..

Cheers, I originally wanted to be a pilot but found out because of my eyesight I couldn't. All you need is 2 A-Levels which take 2 years to complete, I've just finished the first year and completed my exams, 1 year to go. However I'm taking a gap year once I finish next year, I need the break. So therefore you don't need a degree (I wasn't planning to go to Uni anyway). It would be great if I got it. Great job and great pay = happy days ;D

Re: Introduce yourself to the NEW POSTERS here...
A little late but ah well. My name is actually shomari. Live in sacramento, cali (love long walks in the park, moonlight dinners blah blah lol !!) Work for the state of california doing social work. Actually started off only really betting on boxing (and any damn thing else for awhile) stopped while i was semi-ahead but loved the sport. Continued watching wanted to get back into betting so i browsed the net for info to help influence my picks lol !!! Went to a couple other forums they were'n't bad but this was the best. Found out i really acutally knew nothing about the sport and wanted to jump from being just a casual fan, stuck around here learned and the rest is ....you know. Now i love boxing so much that aside from just friendly wagers (where i almost always bet on the underdog reguardless of who's fighting) got so wrapped up in the sport that i replaced betting with actually watching. Shit in the past i didn't even watch most of the fights just cared about the result, so i knew a little but no where near as much as i do now. Happily married to the best woman in the world (a lot say that but my baby is the best) three kids, usually can be found high and broke.

I think the reason guys from England are anti hatton & calzaghe on here is because they're big boxing fans and they see that Hatton & Calzaghe have maybe had an easier ride and are hyped more than they maybe deserve. But theres also a sort of mentality in the UK with most our sports stars/music stars etc, we love them on the way up but once they get to the top we turn on them (imo the tabloid newspapers dont help). I think its ok for english guys to hate Calzaghe though as he's welsh lol only kiddin! Me personally i'm a fan of both of them, i understand they maybe not as good as theyre hyped but they've done a lot for the sport in the uk and are both great fighters. Volleyball coach that must be 1 of the coolest jobs ever!!

Re: Introduce yourself to the NEW POSTERS here...
Hi Guys, names Sanjeeva, I'm 33 and my friends call me Sanj. Been member of the board for a while, but mainly lurking. Would love to get more involved but never really get the time. Live in Nottingham, England at present (train at the same gym as Carl Froch) but will be moving to Australia soon.
Me and my bro have been into boxing since I can remember, watching all the big fights with my dad and his mates. Have had a few jobs including Investment banking and the army, but currently working as a doctor. Hope to get into the medical side of boxing or refing in Australia.
This is a great place to chat about the sweet science with like minded fans and it certainly would be great to meet up for a beer and a fight. Planning on getting out to the US for a lot more fights, so would be good to put a face to the forum members.
Am a fan of old masters (Ray Robinson, the original sugar) and the modern greats (PBF, you may hate him but any true boxing fan respects his skills).
As soon as I get a regular place will be starting to collect all the great fights.

Good to see you step into the light.
I've often wondered how many people like you are around.
Anyway good stuff and good luck with the boxing. :)
