Favourites

glittermonkey · Post by **glittermonkey** » 07 Jul 2004, 18:08

Just to pass the time before we all discuss Warren's revealing interview tomorrow, and because over the last few days there seems to be more than a little ill feeling around, i'd like to know everyones favourite boxrec posters.

I don't mean favourite as in "I get along with him fine and his knowledge knows no bounds", i mean favourite as in "That guy's wacky reach related posts make me laugh 'till my spleen trys to vacate my body". At the least it'll give us a chance to relive some laughs and maybe give everyone a little distraction from the fact that most of the threads at the moment seem to end up in a slagging match.

Aside from Kovit, i'd pick Nasty (his love of Tyson reminds me of a man clinging to a cliff with one finger), $eif (where has the little guy got to?), and Pringle (anyone who has won fights against Ali, Superman and Professor Hawking is a true legend).

At first I was worried about the title of this topic. I thought we maybe had to discuss the sites we have in our favourites folder. Thankfully thats not the case!!

I dopnt really think I have a favourite poster. There are people whose opinions I take on board more than others for a variety of reasons. Everyone who makes a contribution to this forum brings something good or bad, thats what makes it such a fine place to inhabit!!

I miss young jaafar's "Mundine Rulzz" and "(insert name of BoxRec poster here}, R U A Muslim?" rants.

I miss the guy who used to talk about "Ali beating Frazier in the Rumble in the Jungle", too.

(Hey, they have jungles in the Phillippines, right? At least they used to, before they cut them all for chopstick exports. :()

Don Kauffman. I've laughed out loud at every one of his posts. All the funnier when people actually get wound up about it.

I hardly ever post here but visit every day and check the threads. But I must say that Eric the Vikings mix of knowledge and wit steals my vote.

As for worst, well, I know it wasnt asked but I feel I have to comment, theres one guy on here, who never really posts anything knowledgable but just starts threads that quote stories from other sites. Seems like a nice guy, but he doesnt really bring much to the forum.....other than tv schedules and his picture with boxers.

I used to visit boxingtalk's european section a lot but now its useless. You guys here have a great forum, and I enjoy reading the comments and banter you share.

There's loads of good lads on here. It's impressive how few fools actually stay the course on the site...says a lot for the regulars.

My favourite is when J has obviously had a long liquid lunch and comes back full of the joys of the world...you keep it up my son!
