Fu(k off! You know I haven't! WTF's your point? I was training for it, have lots of reasons why I couldn't which if you're really interested I would list, and you may just surprise me by not being a BS-type and giving it, 'Those are just excuses' crap.
(Main reasons: herniated disc through wrestling, sudden surprising onset of pneumonia and acute adult asthma, not enough ground experience, NO available shows, baby on the way, trainer left the country, working one full time and three part-time jobs... now there are more, will that do you?)
So it's still down to 1bad65 and now you to say what your point is convincingly!
Lemme pre-empt you a little: I haven't fought pro-boxing - but I know that if my great aunt stepped into the ring with Klitchko people would be going, 'What the ****,' and talking about her and the promoters turning the game into a freakshow, bringing it into disrepute, dangerous behaviour and wasting everyone else's time! And would the fact that I've done two years hard boxing training (and I've been to boxing gyms and know that we sparred full-contact more than the average) within my MMA training lend my opinion any more weight? No, because I've never 'stepped up'?!
George Bush had no experience of leading a country before he took over, yet you gave him the benefit of the doubt!
Judging by the MMA bout he was in that was on youtube, and by footage of him at BS throwdowns Anthony has very poor skills and is seriously out of shape, regardless of the calibre of his opponent that day. I don't need to have fought competitively to know that. He shouldn't have been able to pass a medical, and he shouldn't have been allowed in the ring. He's just another potential fatal accident on the borderline of an already shady business with dangerous disreputable tuppenny-promoters 'stepping up' everywhere it seems in the States.
If I was as bad as him, I would take it as my responsibility and obligation to others to NOT 'step up'! Big fat
Nah. See above.
And as for your comment about going to his kwoon and beating him being a one-way ticket to Widehole Penitentiary, it just goes to show how much you guys have let Abel's nonsense get to you and cause more hyperbole posturing: all it would take to prove his 'worth' is going and full-contact sparring him even if he wouldn't agree to some kind of sanctioned match.
This has no bearing on what I think of Abel, or what I think of Anthony as a person (he may be sound, I've no idea - and nor do I particularly care) what I think of this joke of an eighty page thread, but I can't help but think that as Abel isn't going to lose anything by ducking he must be laughing his ass off.
