    I'd reinstate 'Brockton Block Buster' immediately.

    It shows how much attention I pay to this, I never even knew. BBB, don't know what you did wrong, but hopefully see you soon.

    Fanman never falling in the ring. Bowie would have very well retained that belt.

    There may have been a Bowe/Lewis fight by late '94, early '95 with the winner fighting parolee Mike Tyson.

    I'd reinstate same day weigh ins. The current system means we get light heavies today fighting at middle etc etc
    If God wanted us to be vegetarians, why are animals made of meat ?

    It would have been interesting, but I don't think it would have changed things that much. Tyson is a head case and he would have screwed Cus over at some point. Camille Ewald was his surrogate mother and only died a few years ago, but she didn't seem to have much influence on him.

    Tyson doesn't know the meaning of loyalty and I say that as a fan! He likes to blame everyone else for his mistakes and the long history of bad behaviour, but the fact is he's not a very nice person.

    Camile Ewald never had a say in Mikes career or probably had a clue what was going on. Cus made Mike and if he and Jim Jacobs had not died so early in Mikes career would King have really got a hold on Mike? I doubt it. King needed Mike to lose those influential people.

    Dropping the Ban on Brockton-Block-Buster.

    I push for immediate re-instatement.

    I honestly don't think it would have made any difference. Tyson is a self-destructive person and still behaved like an arsehole even when Cus was alive. He would have gone off the rails regardless.

    How about Walcott not dropping his hands allowing Marciano to counter him and retire undefeated.

    I heard a couple of rogue MODS are keeping him out, something to do with a 'bombastic personality' plus his weight, whatever that means.
    He might have to buy his way back in, whatever that means.

    That's all a bit profound.
