Jesus and Boxing

[Mars_ax]

well most fighters (Holyfield and Byrd for example) found strength in their faith, it might sound stupid to some but it's basically what fueled them and their records speak for themselves so it must have done something right

I'm sure it helped them or at least they believe it did, just saying, I wish the holy rollers would keep that bullshit to themselves and out of everyone else's face. That goes not just for boxers, but all proselytizing and/or preaching type christians.

I get what you mean but it's not only the Christians, plenty of Muslim fighters would preach on about how Allah gave them strength, Ali, Tyson, Hamed, and Khan all spring to mind

Oh I know, the only reason I didn't mention Muslims was because the OP was mainly referring to jesus/christians. It's kind of comical to imagine Tyson converting to Islam, he might make a good terrorist though, just promise him plenty of crack cocaine.

Jesus has got no business in boxing, not with those hands.

Faith should be kept out of all sports , if some sports men and women want to believe in a god of some kind thats up to them. But as a spectator i dont wanna here it.

Do you no what get's too me, when a boxer beat's the other fighter, and they say some thing
like this I have to thank God.? If god love's everybody doe's he love the winner more.?

I find most people that drone on about their religion pretty stupid and annoying. I donlt really care what imaginary friends people have, nor do I appreciate these people somehow believing that they have some duty or right to tell me how to live my life. They can all fuck off, as far as I am concerned.

Maybe the winner is the one who prayed more.
