My apologies good sir, one was merely trying to express one's opinion, and chose to type in a most quick and expedient manner because of other matters that needed to be attended to. I was held in the mind that this was a boxing forum and not some form of dissertation, but now that I am aware that such literary pedants such as yourself feel most offended through the use of colloquial language, I shall forthwith make the utmost effort to write in a more aesthetically pleasing custom for you. Or not. Dickhead
Yea it was harsh he probably thought you was being funny, he just don't know what your like. And i don't mean that in a nasty way either, and to go off topic for a minute Miles i think schools are rubbish.
I left school at 16 and my spelling/punctuation/sentences were rubbish when i first came here, now im 19 i think all 3 of the above have improved. Im not saying im ever going to be in the league of an English teacher or ETC.
But just by coming on here and typing alot and learning off other members, how to do punctuation and ETC. Its greatly improved so not only have i improved my boxing knowledge, i've improved my spelling/punctuation/sentences aswell. When you pulled me up once about my grammar and ETC, thats when i decided i needed to pull my socks up and make an effort.

You have improved. I have noticed it. You are writing a lot better than you used to. And no, you dont always need an English teacher to guide you. I teach ESL, which means second language which is a bit tougher than teaching the natives what they already know. They need to learn it all completely and anew. Which is a huge task. Language is a beast and even those that speak it dont understand most of it.
Caught me on a bad day when I've had a job interviewer calling me 'man' and talking about how his company are trying to 'keep it real'. Since I was wearing a suit and doing my best to sound articulate, I felt this might have been to do with me being mixed-race. Got home and your comment kinda pissed me off along the same lines. The dickhead bit wasn't supposed to read as harsh as it did though so sorry about that and before you pull me up on grammatical mistakes, I am dyslexic so if I read through it I can correct it, but I'd prefer not havin to proof read all my posts.
Does the entire boxing world and interest revolve around Mayweather?Does it really?And if so then why?Is there nothing else going on?Just seems so repetative and done Imo.
