    I haven't been here that long but wasn't those ridiculous threads started mainly by Saddoboxer? It seems that the Pac fans like Julius Rain, Bruce Lee, C-Lo are more moderate and has good knowledge on the fight game and aren't the ones to start up threads like that. In fact after Saddoboxer was banned I hardly ever see any ridiculous threads and this section bombarded with Pacquiao threads.

    Expletive-boxer had many forms...like a petty doppleganger.And his exit was a breath of fresh air.Their are indeed very level headed Boxing fans who are huge on Manny,C-lo and company being amongst them.hmm Hey you know whats funny,when you hit spell check, S**doboxers name comes up as "Sandbox" Tell the cat

    Please note that this isn't aimed at any one specific person! I've enjoyed being a (very small) part of this forum for awhile now, and one of the things I have always loved about it is the tolerance and respect shown by the people that have been here forever and a day. I know people get excited when their favorite fighter is in action - I do! - but I hate seeing people resort to calling each other stupid or idiotic just because there's a difference of opinion.

    Can't we all just get along?

    Get off your pedestal


    But really, I haven't seen any rampant disrespect floating around. I'm guessing Saddo's is one of, if not the most, respectful boxing forums around.

    If you are going to make such a bold claim then you have to at least name names so a flame war will start

    Exactly. It's been a while since we had one of those epic threads on the off-topic board. C'mon Collins, name some goddamn names! We demand blood.

    I guess I should have specified that I wasn't referring to vaginal blood .
