Also a new copy of Dark Trade - havent read it for years and lost/gave away my last copy so receiving it was a welcome surprise.

Non boxing related: Season 5 of Family Guy to complete my collection and a boxed set of the series 'Rising Damp' - the old ones really are the best!

Mwhahahaha, WTF are you going to do with the 16oz sparring gloves?........they will either end up on the back of your bedroom door in your Moms house or in the loft, either way collecting dust.

Some of the things written in the US press before the fateful night against pintor are sadening too "just a pipe cleaner with ears" etc... think they respected old Johnny after the fight though. As for the behaviour of the fans post fight, well, it makes it laughable when people whinge about "hattons lot" booing the US anthem.

RIP Johnny & Dick Owen

Incidentally does anyone have a really good copy of the dcumentery with Dick going to meet Pintor. I have one but it has a loud fuzzing noise over it, poor recording.

Fukc off Simpsons you internet faggot. What happened to the CAPITALS in your username, I thought they made you feel special?..

Constantly changing username each time you get exposed as a loser shows me what kind of half witted imbecile you are.

You have been discredited more times then I care to remember. Run along now mummy's boy

deadpan wrote:The BBBC book 2008 and a 2 dvd set - 202 knockouts of which I had the first dvd already. The cover is a right con as the fights it depicts aren't on it (including Graham-Pazienza which wasn't even a knock out).

Oh and one of those glossy 'Story of Boxing' books by Mullan and Mee which I have at least 4 copies of with different covers.

And a triple 'Likely Lads' dvd. Which is off-topic but fantastic.

I just loved Terry and Bob - Must be "Whatever Happened To The Likely Lads" the later series which was in colour - Tried to get them on DVD and was told they hadnt brought any out - How many episodes are there? - Must go into town and buy it - Havent had any boxing or F1 books for about 3/4 years now.

Got a nice old French poster of Ali in the 70's bio flick The Greatest - "Le Plus Grand".

I've never seen it, lots of old 70's names in it, and Ali of course, but I think it must've been pretty dire as it hasn't seen the light of day for years.

Got a brilliant Rocky calendar, March is my favourite, Clubber Laing - I don't hate Balboa, I pity the fool.

Emerson got me a signed Rocky poster by Sly. Thanks mate

Also got two copies of Fight Night for the XBOX 360 and also the bio of Sugar Ray Robinson that someone recommended on a previous thread so can't wait to get stuck into it.

Plus lots of poker books so not a bad Chrimbo really.

Mate, had to make sure there was nothing wrong with it, couldn't live with myself if I bought you a book and it was somehow defective. But I can confirm due to its size that I did not read it on the shtter, can you imagine trying to sneak that in??

I got a Boxing Legends 3 DVD boxset; consisting of Champions Forever, Champions Forever: Latin Legends & the Rocky Marciano lifestory.

Also got 101 great knockouts in 101 minutes. 8) 8)

I got the book The Courage and Chivalry of Audley Harrison. It came in a presentation leather-bound matchbox.

Yes this was not one of Ali's better films, his documentary films from the 70's are much better and the vintage poster to these films go for a LOT more.

You should take good care of that book; it has to be the only one is existence, so it would be the most valuable boxing book ever!!!! :P :P :P

Still game is one of the funniest shows on TV, the Christmas specials this year were a treat and last years episode with Jim Watt and Michelle McManus were superb.

Still Game is one of the most underrated comedies on TV, there was another great sitcom called '15 stories High' with Sean Lock , which is one of the best i've seen.
