Boxintalk days .... anyone remember...
Does anyone on here remember someone called Dan something from old old boxingtalk days. He was an absolute numptey fomr London who thought the to be punched on the temple ment to be hit on the centre of the forehead - amongst other stupid things... something tells me he loved (probably literally) Mayorga, was that his username, something mayorga ? mayorga is dangerous ? maybe?
I think this dates back to before Spud, ben carey, Galaxy, Payne et al came to boxing talk.

Re: Boxintalk days .... anyone remember...
Can't help you with this but it has got me thinking about old users, long forgotten!
I remember, think it may have been on Seconds out, a lad called Jimmy! He once got a NIGERIA 619 EMAIL I had been sent and started comnmunicating with the crooks, he would then post the emails the next morning, it ran for months, it was truly the funniest thing ever on the forum!!
Always liked Lighsoot and Gav, great ruckers, better than some of the trolling we get these days!

Re: Boxintalk days .... anyone remember...
I was a poster there back in the day, when you were North Wales, and good old sp3nc3r – what happened to that guy, he was a quality poster.
Also, mayorgaisdangerous was Dan, I remember when the US forum on boxingtalk got a picture of him and photoshopped it with make up. Happy days.

Re: Boxintalk days .... anyone remember...
of course, spender. He was a good poster, very cynical, like a watered down version of galaxy.
Also remember the photoshop picture with him with rosy cheeks.
Good old days, british forum had about 6 posters at one point, but 6 consistent posters that'd post all day.

Did anyone ever post on the original www.boxing.com forum? I remember a main poster neilyoungrocks. That was circa 2000/2001

I don't know the bloke, but I was reading the others sports forum yesterday and he's supposedly recently joined this site as MachoManthepocketrocket wrote: I remember, think it may have been on Seconds out, a lad called Jimmy! He once got a NIGERIA 619 EMAIL
I used to post on BoxingTalk, but I joined with Spud, DWP, Sooty etc. Don't recall this Mayorga geeza, so he was probably before my time.

Re: Boxintalk days .... anyone remember...
Remember "Farmboxer"? i think he was on boxingtalk?
He was a Wladimir Klitschko fanatic from some hillbilly part of the states who was a professional piano tuner and once appeared live on stage with Johnny Cash.
I always thought that was a good cover story for a super hero, a mild mannered piano tuner.
i digress...

Brilliant!!!!! Cheers bud
Re: Boxintalk days .... anyone remember...
I made the same journey in terms of Secondsout,BoxingTalk etc. Don't recall Mayorga either. Half the time I struggle to remember who was on what forum. Some posters that I rated have disappeared over time. Anyone remember Ulysses or Grey Fox? Think the latter actually resurfaced on here recently for a couple of posts before disappearing again. Remember having some good debates with him as disagreed on a couple of occasions but always respected his opinion.Chambers2 wrote:I don't know the bloke, but I was reading the others sports forum yesterday and he's supposedly recently joined this site as MachoManthepocketrocket wrote: I remember, think it may have been on Seconds out, a lad called Jimmy!

There's a poster called FarmBoxer on Eastside who's a prick, so it's probably the same oneKhaosai-Galaxy wrote:Remember "Farmboxer"? i think he was on boxingtalk?

Pocket,
Are you still doing the Hollyoaks tours around Chester and getting a free hair do ?
The gym invite was back in the Wincobank days - but I'm sure it could still be arranged.

Re: Boxintalk days .... anyone remember...
Was it KG who replied to a 'Grim Reaper claims two more victims'(Two elderly members of the British boxing community) with the rather amusing 'they need to stop Robin Reid doing this shit'? 
Re: Boxintalk days .... anyone remember...
What happened to 'The Real McCoy' who used to post on here and always wrote in the third person?
