You're new breh...what do you mean, show you "what British fighter" you hype up. You only have 199 posts
However, you're hyping up Brook who's only win vs a legit opponent was a close SD win over Shawn Porter. You're hyping him as undoubtedly better than everyone around his weight class....and if that's the case, the Porter fight shouldn't have been close, because Porter is not elite himself at WW
I hype up fighters who have the ability.
I hype up tyson fury because he has actual skills and outboxed wlad easily.
I hype up kell brook because not only is he technically brilliant he's a hard puncher too.
I'll probably hype up ohara Davies because i watched him as an amateur he's a great talent in terms of starting late. He didn't even lose as an amateur and he came up in the London amateur scene which is very good.
I don't just hype up fighters just because they are British. I tend to hype up people that I can relate to as well. the general population will never accept Tyson fury despite him being the first person to beat wlad in like 11 years and being the undisputed champ.
They won't even acknowledge him but they'll fall for this Anthony Joshua act who has a whole pr team.telling how to act and what to say. He's not like that. He's a roadman and is around real goons. Dyllian Whyte tried to tell the public that lol. He's not like that. He's a professional guy and holds the image well but he's not honest.
I had your back when you were posting here originally......you got banned.....then you wanna come back and troll me?
I even held you down in TLR and put you in the #StonerSquad....and you come back acting brand new on me breh?
Didn't I co-sign your hands breh?
Why you wanna go against your big homie Newzz breh?

I don't think it's personal. For the next year I have put on this act and play this game you understand? Similar to Anthony Joshua.
I have to pretend I'm remorseful, I have to pretend I'm trying to change my ways, I have to pretend I'm trying to integrate into society. You understand?
I'm not even in the boxing gym anymore. I have to live a lie to stay out of prison. You think if I go into my weekly probation and act like how I really am they are going to let it slide. They will activate my sentence like that. It's a game. You have to play by their rules they've got you on a leash.
Listen I'm not remorseful. If I was in the same situation I'd do the same thing probably worse. The only reason nothing else has happened is because I stay in the house. I can't be around my old friends. I can't be outside. I can't be out in the clubs.
You understand?
Breh, like I told you a couple months back.....that's exactly what you need to do. Lay low and stay away from personal drama & non-sense. I feel you
You caught a huge break too, to even be able to be here posting right now. Take that as a sign, switch it up, and work on getting yourself back to where you need to be. Positivity is the key to life.

Tyson Fury Says He Weighs 350, Not Worried as Training Starts
Tyson Fury has labelled his battle with depression as "the hardest fight of my life" but insists he has turned a corner as he prepares to launch his comeback later this year.
Fury, the former unified world heavyweight champion, last year surrendered the WBA and WBO titles he won from Wladimir Klitschko in one of boxing's great upsets in a bid to conquer his personal demons.
Earlier this week he announced plans to return to the ring on May 13 - although he remains suspended by the British Boxing Board of Control, putting a potential roadblock on any comeback - and on Friday followed it up by speaking about his condition.
He wrote on Twitter: "I've moved on from the dark &scary place I've been living & if I can beat depression then I can beat anything! The hardest fight of my life!
"I'm starting a fresh start, letting go of the past & concentrating on the future, got to keep moving forwards, #startingfromthebottom."
The mercurial 28-year-old, who has a perfect 25-0 record with 18 wins coming by knockout, also candidly revealed he has piled on the pounds in his absence from the ring.
He added: "Talk about being a fat man, I'm 25stones or 350lbs, but getting the weight off has never been a problem! Ask (his trainer) @peterfury we done it 24 times."
In October the British Boxing Board of Control suspended Fury's boxing licence "pending further investigation into anti-doping and medical issues", a matter which is yet to be concluded and which will prevent any comeback taking place until it is.
That development came the day after he gave up his world titles. Fury also captured the IBF crown when he outpointed Klitschko in November 2015 - his last bout - but he was stripped of the belt a month later after announcing plans to rematch the Ukrainian instead of facing mandatory challenger Vyacheslav Glazkov.

I'm nit sure at all that I buy this depression talk btw...
Dude seemingly fukking around just like he did all in his career. I don't see no dramatic change in behavior or anything which would suggest he is really depressed.
Of course I can't know it for sure and maybe he is really depressed afterall but I personally don't really buy it.

Sullivan Barrera
Message to Artur Beterbiev from Team Sullivan Barrera:
"Artur,
Yesterday, you decided to go to the internet and social media as you have tried to do in the past and paint your own picture of the IBF eliminator bout between yourself and Sullivan Barrera. Maybe your propaganda works in Russia and in Canada but not in the United States. The fact is this fight was doomed to fail from the beginning and you can only look to your fake promoter for reasons and excuses.
First, your promoter decided not to negotiate with Barrera’s promoter Main Events and asked to go to an immediate purse bid. You immediately told the world on your social media account that the fight would be March 4th in Brooklyn, New York. Sullivan Barrera started training for this bout but no contract ever came for this bout.
After your promoter won the purse bid, he then told the world the fight would be in late March or early April in New York. Sullivan continued to train for that bout but again no contract ever came from your promoter.
Then, a few days before your promoter was obligated to meet the IBF’s deadline to send Sullivan Barrera a bout agreement for the eliminator, he is quoted in a Canadian news article about a possible cancellation of the bout if you would not be able to get a visa to enter the United States. You then had to go to your social media to try and correct your own promoter’s quotes and continue to push him to make the bout happen rather than bring up possible excuses to cancel the bout.
Next, your promoter tried to tell the world that the bout would be April 21st in Miami. But following the same pattern, a contract from your promoter never came for that bout either. Instead, he tried to send improper agreements to Main Events with various dates and sites that were all contingent on “financial backers” and could be cancelled and postponed at any time which is against IBF rules. If your promoter didn’t want to negotiate with Main Events in the first place and won the purse bid, why is he trying to make side deals with Main Events instead of just sending a bout agreement?
It was also learned that even after your promoter failed to meet the IBF deadline to submit a proper bout agreement to Barrera with the actual date, site, and location of the bout, he was still reaching out to local promoters in the Miami area and asking them for large amounts of money for the rights to put on the fight in Miami. One of those promoters actually contacted Barrera’s manager and asked his manager to help pay Yvon Michel and finance the bout.
Hopefully you can see how all of these actions (and inactions) raised tremendous concern in the camp of Sullivan Barrera that your promoter was grasping at straws and was not going to be able to properly deliver on the bout. He was in violation of the IBF rules governing the winner of a purse bid and kept trying to find ways around it. As of yesterday, he still wasn’t providing specific information on the site of the bout and at no time has the bout ever been listed on the schedules of any of the main boxing venues in Miami or on any schedule for U.S. television.
While it was always questionable whether your promoter could actually promote a fight of this magnitude in the United States when he has yet to ever do so, we no longer wanted to wait and find out the hard way. Barrera was simply not going to play these games any longer. After training for weeks and spending his own money with little to no certainty as to whether the bout would actually take place, enough became enough. Your promoter got what he wanted and you can thank him for the cancellation of this bout.
Artur, you are a great fighter with a great future. You will either take tough bouts against the best in the light heavyweight division like Sullivan Barrera has done or go the way of your countryman Adonis Stevenson and avoid tough bouts at all costs. You will either be a part of the propaganda and games being played by your promoter or you will demand to be well informed about the truth behind your opponents and the bouts.
But you should know that every story has two sides and Barrera's track record should leave no doubt about his intentions to fight you and the very best in the division. While you spent all of 2016 fighting whatever cow farmers from Argentina your promoter could find, Barrera was on HBO facing off against Andre Ward and then destroyed the previously unbeaten Slava Shabranskyy.
Have no doubt that Sullivan Barrera was ready to fight you and does not care about the fact that everyone else is afraid of fighting you. But Sullivan needs to be treated like a man and not a piece of meat. If you and your promoter are just looking for fresh meat, you need to keep going back to Argentina."

No his depression was very real. I don't know why you would even question him. Hes one of them people who completely honest about everything. Hes one of those people who will be really up one minute then suicidal depressed the next, all in the same day.
And he's been this weight many many times in his career going into fight camps and he always comes in shape.
I can only assume Bob has yet to watch the Crawford/Postol fight to be talking this bullshyt.
Old b*stard is just mad at the ratings Swift and One time pulled in.
