Re: Sweeney promotions looking for welterweight opponent.
Let me tell you lads , I know I'm doing an ok job when I get comments like quite a few of you boys posted. I'm a sensitive little fecker, & Apollo,s post does make you question your role. I've always loved to box & you know what. My two kids & lovely misses benefit in every way when I'm living my dream. I knew I'd not be world champ. Why go for a few wins, get beat , lose heart, give up. I've always been a tuff little git, so why not try being a good journeyman. I'm proud as, fact!

Where has Appollo Creed gone??? He has bottled it this much since the time Rocky wanted a re-match 
Re: Sweeney promotions looking for welterweight opponent.
Did the Georgian end up getting matched ?

What a knob Im glad rocky knocked you out and drago killed you now.ApolloCreed wrote:Johnny,
I like you as a poster on here but you are one of the worst active professionals in Britain or Ireland. Let's face facts - you would gladly have taken the fans' money to go in there and get beaten. We all know it because you are paid, nine times out of ten, to lose.
Don't try to be the big fella about it on here please.
Like to see you get beaten for a living. You another internet HW.
I suggest you stick to bullying kids on myspace, twitter and facebook

You also have loads of bottle and your posts show you are a thoughtful and good natured bloke. So good luck to you, don't let other people's negativity get to you. It's their problem, not yours - and as you can see you have plenty of fans and supporters on this forum. All the bestjohnnygreaves wrote:I've been trying really hard to put into words how I feel about Apollo creeds post. Still really struggling. I honestly feel I do a good job taking these fights that everyone else blows out. I've boxed the best talents in boxing & feel as though I make them all work for it. I'm no champ but by god I'm not the worst in Britain. I've only been proper stopped twice & deserved more than a few wins. Your comments put a lump in my throat , no lie. Why do I get used so often , & on massive shows if as you said I'm crap. I'm not gonna start argueing with you . That would make two pricks, instead of one, you
Spot on merman

I find great solice in this, every time someone throws an insult my way I try and remember this and it sets me straight again,
It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.
An incredible man, and an incredible speech (in full here http://www.leadershipnow.com/tr-citizenship.html)
