This is not the 1950's any more mate.

People may charge me, possibly quite rightly, of lacking a contemporary view of boxing in the 21st Century. But even I accept that the ending of a challenger needing to dominate a champion to get a points win, is a good thing. And virtually everybody was saying as far back as Holyfield/BoweII it was a good thing.
Did you just call me mate like we was friends or something?

We're still rivals Britkid

And sometimes I wish it was back in the 1950's when fighters had guts and actually fought the best with our without titles they fought the best.
No, he called you "mate" like you were a dude.

He may have a point.
