What's happening then?
We found any footage or are we going for another fight?
Finnegan vs Foster is a good option and we'll have no shortage of Conteh fights to view.

Week 6 was Chris Finnegan vs Bob Foster.

I'm the only one to have commented so far. Did anyone else watch it?

I wouldn't go that far Horse but from my (admittedly limited) experience of Boxing forums you were p*ssing in the wind with this:

A lovely community feeling for all of the many members of this forum

It's something I've yet to encounter (not do I expect to anytime soon)

Never mind here's a Image to cheer you up.

Any suggestions for week 7?

I would suggest Howard Winstone vs Vicente Saldivar I, but we haven't had an all British clash since week 2.

Great technical fight between two excellent fighters.

If you're after an all British fight may I suggest Alan rudkin - Walter mcgowan, horse? Two great Brits.

I certainly am (especially in present company) I bet you had look it up as well.

Yes that's established now I'm 'pudendum' and it's becoming increasingly apparent that you're a repetitive bore who is very brave on the Internet and takes himself F A R too seriously.

I look forward to the next installment of this fascinating discourse.

Glad to call you a pudendum any time,PIGG.

I was being sarcastic, by the way.

Saying leitmotiv doesn't make you clever. In this company or any other.

Ah, the using a youtube link as a riposte 'leitmotiv'. You've got previous with that, too.

When I say 'too', I mean 'along with having previous for being a pudendum, too', obviously, PIGG.

I've clearly had a profound effect on your life for you to be so familiar with my work, I'm pleased and yet saddened at the same time.
