Ha. You sound like you’re promoting the event.

Kinda like me.. I can’t wait to tune in at 7pm UK time on Sky Sports.

the other zhangs a total fraud though, every fight of his ive seen just gives off a massive impression of being 'arranged', i think one of the sanctioning bodies even suggested that hes shady

Would be huge!! Sell out the Olympic stadium in Beijing.

jamamb wrote: ↑23 Nov 2018, 18:24 ya, imo hes a total fraud , i think a lot of his fights have been works, these guys are getting paid to lie down in a round or two

Be careful what you wish for.

They are only one syllable names, Candy. The ones you should be worried about are the unpronouncable eastern European names. There is a terrible shortage of vowels in Eastern Europe. Meanwhile Polynesia has a huge surplus of vowels. They should work out some sort of trade agreement. Maybe trade machine parts for vowels. Throw in some coconuts and breadfruit and pirogis and kasha or something to sweeten the deal.

I think the one syllable names is more true of the Koreas where it seems there are a pool of about a hundred or so such words of one to five letters, but mainly three to four, where you can pick any three and arrange them in any order and you've got a proper full name shared by any number of the two populations.

Chinese is a little different it seems to me. While you get many shorter names you also get place names like Changjiangkou aka Changjiang Kou and like Giangzhou aka Giang Zhou aka Canton.

I like your vowel joke very much and I too believe a good joke deserves a regular airing.

Ha ha! Do you want to air out my jokes so they don't stink so much!? Alas, people just don't apreciate my sophisticated humor.

Actually i think all Chinese and Korean surnames consist of only one syllable. Place names are different.

And speaking of sophisticated humor (like mine), here is the greatest boxing movie of all time:
