Dear god, Iran Barkley and Saoul Mamby fighting on the same show in Idaho in a couple of weeks. I think it's safe to assume that there is no commission in Idaho. Anyone who buys a ticket to this should be ashamed of themselves and the promoter needs locking up.

Barkley should be nowhere near a ring, he's already in a bad way and Mamby is 61!

Mamby says boxing is soft compared to a stint he did as a New York cabbie. He's all right, he keeps himself in great shape and tuck ups well; Barkley, however, is risking a Jerry Quarry.

Disgusting really, i'm guessing this might be on Native American owned land, therefore not under the commission

Jesus Bennie, are you seriously advocating pensioner boxing. I'm frankly shocked. No matter how well he tucks up, the guy is older than Mum-Ra's grandmother he should not be allowed to box professionally.

I agree, 61 is really pusing it!

I was at an amateur show here in Chicago a couple years ago and two 60 plus year olds got in the ring to fight.
The crowd thought it was great that these two wanted to have a go at it.
The referee on the other hand didnt agree.
He climbed out of the ring and said there was no way in hell he was gonna be a part of one of these guys getting hurt .
