Off topic(ish): There are some top US boxing fans.

I just thought I would share this with you.
As some are aware I do frequently post on a US based (much smaller) forum with some dedicated fans from around the world. Absolute no policing is needed and it is great.
I think there are only 3-4 British posters there and I am the most regular off them (sad I know), so I often get asked advice on UK/European fights for bets.
Its an excellent forum and I have no qualms about offering my opinion - anyway, I had an e-mail from this poster today who was thanking me for my contribution and how I have earned him a few pennies with my tips off late. He has offered to buy me a sports (baseball I assume) cap or a T shirt of any Sports Team I might not be able to get in the UK as a thankyou.
Not really my style, but I thought a damn nice gesture. I also was send £20 from a different poster at the site for a post I made there on Lewis vs Tyson. I basically said if Tyson is heavy put your money on Lewis mid/late rounds. Someone won big and thanked me.
I didn't ask for any of this, I thought they are gents.
