:clap: agree there .
Could still make the program alright without the effin and jeffin.
The production team must think it Makes them look extra tough , but it just looks childish .
In the army, squaddies swear a lot - except for officers of course - it is just a fact of military life. :yay:

It was 6 women and a 56 year old man, he should of been able to control himself
Agreed as that was the idea of the trial , but the programme makers obviously know his background and it must be doubly harder for him .
Enjoyed it tho .

Had a polish bloke in our factory a few years ago that we taught to swear before we taught him the queen's English .
Best one I heard when someone was pissing him about was
" What do you Fvck off w@nker " all in one sentence .

Swearing's an army thing, it's not a put on thing for effect, squaddies do actually swear like that.

It's odd that he really did lose it, he was still wound up in the truck on way back, he's such a macho person , needs to lose the attitude if he's going to get far in this.

I doubt it, one of them received an award for bravery for capturing an IRA sniper by using himself as bait so I doubt he's going to be intimidated by a boxer.

I forgot! I heard he made a recovery so who cares - I would still put my money on him taking Bellew tomorrow. :yay:

Anyway, I was reading up about this programme and John Fashanu choking out some DJ and telling everyone 'it's showbiz' :lol: So what's the chances of 'Fash the Bash' vs 'Bombaaaaaaaaa' in a final showdown? :box:

John Fashanu ripping combinations into the head & body of Joey Essex - something I never thought I'd see! Cannot stand that Brendan Cole, arrogant prick.

I would say they are more wary than scared. He would hospitalise any of them with one punch.

He seemed to push someone, one of the women I think it was, rather than punch them last night. It was rather odd, he was shouting, "I've got a body, hit me in the body you c**ts" and then he pushed one of them over. Not sure whether all this psycho stuff is an act or whether its real Boomer, he can get a bit emotional at times but I'm not aware of him being a loose cannon outside of boxing.

True, I don't think he's got the right mentality for this though, I know this is only just a snippet of what the real SAS go through but special forces training isn't about being a physically hard bastard, it's about being mentally hard as well and Bellew seems to fall short on the latter, as you say he can get emotional at times.

Fash must be getting on a bit, but in his prime a real strong athlete, a hard man too, a self centred, tunnel visioned guy.

I always remember Vinnie Jones after being asked about his hard man image that he was a complete pussycat compared to Fash.

It showed a clip from next week and it looks as though Cole is calling someone a prick - more likely to be Anthea Turner than Boomer or Fash!
