    Yes I can see your point but as I tuck into my nice pork chop that pig did not have much say in being bred to be food mate or the dog eating festival in China just taken place a nice plate of Fido not for me.
    Yep dogs tied to a shopping trolley having there heads smashed in by a pretty young girl with a big smile on her face disturbing for dog lovers, but not for dog eaters yours to ponder mans best friend or food.
    Yes mate that's why equating torturing animals for entertainment with eating them is a nonsense argument. We live in a western society where it's now the norm - in my experience - that we refuse to eat/buy eggs if the animals value of life hasn't been respected let alone if it's been killed in an inhumane manner. There's no hypocrisy there whatsoever. However, what animals we should/shouldn't choose to eat/wear is a totally different argument.
    Mate breeding animals to eat the harsh truth its not nice really but if your a meat eater its the price you pay as a farmers son seen the lot birth to death most of the propulsion really no fuck all about this, there have there nice prepacked meat from Tesco and are really clueless what goes into producing there food.
    Remember mate you dont lullaby to sleep theses animals you have to slaughter them not nice mate I have experience as some of my friends are Farmer Slaughter Butchers.

    I understand that mate, it's why people that eat meat still value the life of the animal. The best possible living conditions, feed, as little stress as possible when slaughtered. Not torture. Not disgusting barbaric living conditions. Comfort.

    Millions and millions of people today only buy free range eggs, chickens, only eat cows, pigs, sheep etc dependent on the animals welfare.

    It's not just tree hugger hippies that care about this stuff, people from all walks of life have great compassion and respect for the animal they're eating.

    There's no hypocrisy whatsoever between meat eaters and human beings intentionally abusing animals for fun.

    As much as I love a good pork chop there's no justification in killing animals.

    We are all selfish and just overlook it so we can satisfy our fat guts.

    How can anything be humanely killed?

    Humanely in our eyes?

    How about the boxers that beat or cheat on their wives etc is that not worse than fighting dogs?

    It's a bit off to immediately think of dog fighting when you think of McClellan.

    Imdint agree with it myself, but we have murderers, rapists, paedophiles, burglars, drug dealers, contract killers and all sorts in boxing, many of whom have been great fighters.
    If God wanted us to be vegetarians, why are animals made of meat ?

    G-Man was my favorite fighter when he passed. Funny to me that the stigma/stench of dog fighting persists with him, yet Roy is rarely criticized for his involvement with cock fighting. Not condoning or condemning either, just saying it is crazy to me that bull fighting, cock fighting...etc., are barely recognized while dog fighting receives universal scorn.

    I agree that he likely was injured going in to the Benn fight (Nigel was a brutal puncher) from Kronk wars (watch the video of him sparring Toney) and the Jackson fights. I do think the trainer was shit, not only for not stopping the fight, but also for Gerald's lack of preparation. The ref also shares blame, for basically holding GMan back so Benn could recover in the first, and then for allowing Benn to head butt and rabbit punch throughout.

    Gerald was too one dimensional to be a p4p guy for long, but he definitely could've upset Roy or anyone else who ever laced up a pair of gloves. Not saying he would be favored, just that he had the punch and style to beat anyone.

    That sounds like an invitation for the thread to go off topic for a few pages.

    I'll start

    It's not fair to include Tyson because he wasn't a rapist, he was set up

    Monzon's wife slipped.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
