Does that include all the real men you lost to in the ring as opposed to the 7 stone junkies, drunks and kids you and your ever so brave colleagues usually like to throw their weight around with? The police are bullies, and like all bullies they are cowards.

What a pathetic comment and Howard who I know personally will probably ignore it - what kind of society do you actually want to live in? one without the Police? because with your obvious lack of a fully functioning brain you wouldnt last 5 minutes and more importantly would your loved ones? You might have had bad experiences or whatever tall tale you want to tell and have these ridiculous conclusions you want to draw. But to call an officer a coward when you havnt the slightest idea as to what their work entails on a day to day business is pathetic and you need to grow up you sound like a 14 year old with an attitude problem??!!! Everyone has good and bad in ALL walks of life because unfortunately that is life and sometimes the system fails however the majority of the time it works. Would you really want a key in your hand to let out all the paedos, thieves and scum housed in our prisons - put there by the police you find so easy to slag off? I bet you wouldnt. Grow up you silly silly man.

Ooooh - thats a bit uncalled for - what about a 'real man' like you going in and showing him how it is done?

I've seen Teddy today and he says he would do just that.

Teddy is not 'The Truth'.

From your previous posts, you both sound like a pair of melts with a gangster/hardman fetish.

Tell 'Teddys Toupee' to get on with it and show Howard how it is done... No-one will be holding their breath though.

Sure I have read a couple of those books - thankfully I can put them down and get on with my life and my reading doesn't get in the way of my boxing posts on here, especially when it comes to a respected, tough pro like Howard. Neither of you know him and I doubt neither of you would say any of that to his face so have some respect.

simon fox wrote:Are you sure you wouldn't melt though Teddy?

I'm not sure that you have enough conviction to actually speak your mind to another man. I know you can 'say' whatever you'd like on 'the internet' but when a brave man is disagreeing with you; do you think you will stand your corner or will you get off to shag 'tight asian pussy' like some others names withheld who hold strong opinions about people they have never, or are likely to meet?

My problem was you calling me a prick. Fortunately I don't give a flying one what you think about whether I'm a prick or about my boxing. Introduce yourself if you see me at a show (if you go to shows) and you can tell me all about why you think i'm a prick.
