I genuinely thought they were the same
Kronkpride's been around forever. He was either doing his weird numerology/spelling super-posts or bigging up a very overweight boxer called, I think, Chaucey Welliver. He does videos as well although I've never watched one.

I guess they're both very right wing Christian types, but Henry's more of a guy who has social problems but isn't unintelligent because he writes quite well, whereas Kronkpride seems sectionable.
That numerology shit was batshit.

I can't believe people treat it like it's an actual science.

On topic (very much so) I remember replying to a thread that Henry started asking whether anybody had read the interview with John Fury in Boxing News or Boxing Monthly, I forget which one but one of the Brit magazines. Henry said it was too expensive to get but he was interested to see if John had said anything good. I couldn't resist it and, in telling Rufus some of John's gems I also slipped in how surprised I was that John was so vocal in his support for Jeremy Corbyn. Henry (as well as, as I recall, coneye, who wrote a long post about how he wasn't surprised, confirming my belief that he bases most of his posts on his imagination) bought it hook, line and sinker and completely threw John under the bus and became a far less vocal supporter of Tyson.

I might have admitted that before, but I think it's am amazing how much effort he spent defending John Fury for gouging out someone's eye and then, based on a lie I told as a joke (an obvious one, I thought), completely disowns the bloke because he might be a bit left wing.

So you bullshit in a post , and people believe it , so what is it there ignorant , or your a liar , personaly i take things at face value and don't question everything said , simply because i can't be arsed once found out there liars just don't respond to them , , and i believe this is my LONG POST .

Quote,,,i was'nt He seems to see himself has Irish ,, But realisticly , who the hell , would take much notice of what John or Tyson think about politics , , not excatly Rhode scholars are they. They speak from there heart not there Brain Un quote

Jeez that was exceptionaly long , and i do believe it would be true , The Furys do see themselves has Irishmen , there not excatly Rhode scholars either ,,,, So what i gather you say you bullshitted,, a lie which i might add that was not totally unbelievable , it would'nt suprise me at all if John was a supporter of Corbyn and then want to have a go at someone for believing it ,, you sir are a complete FOOKWIT.

So, there you see Jamamb playing along with the joke, enjoying the windup too (I didn't ask him to do that) and then YOU chime in basically writing like you read the article too.

That's quite funny, I think.

I've heard him refer to his Irish background on a few occasions , nothing wrong with that , But i do know quite a few lads who are English born , or Australian born with Irish background , who are very very involved with Irish history and politics , I'm not saying John said anyhting ,or is involved with views one way or the other Billy Liar alias Cyclops said that ,, IJUST WOULD NOT BE SUPRISED IF jOHN TOOK A POLITICAL LEANING EITHER WAY , i've met lots of people with Irish backgrounds who are very passionate about it . Personaly i'm from Irish stock , both parents , and i could'nt give a monkeys about it all , because I'm not Irish , i am an expat Englishman

Actually no, I don’t know him but would guess he feels more Romany than Irish. The way he speaks, etc. They’re very different. He tried doing the back door like Khan did in 2004.

I know, that's quite a stark choice to make when he could have gone to Dublin and boxed for a club there without the political ramifications.

Saying that, Holy Family is a great boxing club with a fine tradition. :bow:

Why would he feel more Romany than Irish when he's not Romany at all?

His Irish olympic plans fell through because he couldn't find record of his father's birth in Ireland. I'm not sure why it had to be his dad seeing as his mother was supposedly born in Belfast. I wouldn't be surprised if neither were born in Ireland to be honest.

Take a joke, Coneye.
When you try to belittle people its not a joke , its a form of bullying , and i hate bullys , so yes if you were in front of me , I would take a deep breath , suck it in , and then put into action something my first ever trainer told me , he said a good left hook is a great equaliser , and after that i would say to you , Take a Joke ,, smart ass . your smart mouth i'm afraid just would'nt wash with me , so i suppose i'm lucky we are not facing each other , because a lifetime of experience has taught me ,, smart mouths , think its ok to belittle and bully others with there tongue , but are the first to cry if they get a crack across the kisser , , now thats the end of this for me ,... Go rope someone else in with lying posts , then come back months later to tell everyone how cool you are cos your a smart ass .
