[orbtastic]

Changed buses/carriages.

Checking her photo, I assumed she'd boxed herself ?

Yeah, boxed under this name (note the androgynous choice of moniker).

Probably turned lesbian soon after this.

Boxing has probably helped thousands of young men stay on the straight and narrow by giving them a constructive outlet. I wonder how many did as a result of reading Julie's poxy whinging articles.

Fighting is part of being human, the fact we have advanced to the stage where we can have rules and shake hands at the end of it shows we are a long way from dogs.

Could say the same for porn, maybe the moaning moose has a point

Well if that's what the winner of those fights looks like, I wonder how the losers look.

[Glyn Leach]

She could do with a few grammes now King, shift some of that timber

[Glyn Leach]

Well she won't be getting use of my chopper, that's for sure!

Nah, tell Princess you've had a bit of Burchill and she might spark her out in a jealous rage.

[Ezzard]

Child of Thatcher...

Boxing has attracted the great writers throughout it's history so it's only right that Burchill should condemn it.

along with jane vs a certain promoter initials FW, jane vs burchill is another I would happily pay to watch

Alan Hubbard and James Lawton are usually pretty good on boxing in the Independent. I'm sure more fans will read their stuff rather than this ladies social commentary

[Scottrf]

I just had a thought, did she mean this as an insulting comparison?

[doctorboxing]

I think she has a point. Big black men seem to do very well in both.

And when two men enter a ring it gets bloody.
