Olympic boxing on

Don't give me that shite. :: Bottom line is that you are railing on jingoism wherever found as Ireland fail to trouble the scorers in any sport, then suddenly Ireland start winning a few medals and it's youtube clips, celebratory posts and quotes about 'bronze is failure' from you.

Hypocrite!

MTF :nana:

 

I never said Bronze was failure. Barnes said Bronze was failure in response to the smothering affections of an Irish journo who wanted Barnes to toe the company line and tell everyone how delighted he was with his shiny medal in 2008.

Barnes basically told the guy to fuck off.

The youtube clip was of Nevin getting dropped :dunno:

 

show me a good loser and I'll show you a loser.

Barnes is right.

 

"When the Going gets tough, the tough get going"

"Winning isn't everything, it's the only thing"

"A stitch in time saves nine"

Honestly me too, I wouldn't have been remotely surprised if they gave Shitty Gogo the "win".

 

Mommy teach you other quotes?

 

Great, the BBC go all out to show every second of Scrubby Josh or Shitty Gogo, and don't even show Chenko's semi final fight.
:fist:

 

nah, I learned those from your mom

OH SNAP

 

don't worry, when gogo and josho are working the early morning garbage run for ealing council, loma will have his revenge:ant:

 

freddie evans must have made sure the giro went thru, he's 4-1 ast the end of the first :shit:

 

Yamaguchi got Egor'd :Boo:

 

Did Evans win?

If Nevin is jobbed tomorrow......

 

big lump cammarelle on now.

 

very sloppy stuff overall from these two. bit too much man love going on. Few times both have landed something sweet.

 

Big josh on next.

 

Who is Big Josh?

Do you mean Scrubby Josh, the guy who is fighting a Kazak now?

 

::

Big josh has put in a couple nice shots, but this Kazak is quite good. If he used his range more, big josh is in trouble.

 

Did The Josuhua Gee win?

 

Conlon got proper schooled by that Cuban tonight, probably a good thing in the grand scheme of things

 

how the fuck is this tied? big josh has clearly landed the better/cleaner shots

 

final round now, level score

 

Conlon is a good lad, two Irish wins over the Cubans would have been bad, it would have damaged Brand Cuba beyond a doubt.

How is the Joshua Tree doing?

 

Ah yes, but of course, another "close win, a bit lucky there" for "Our Joss".

 

tough to call this final round

 

Big josh should win this. Ended the round better. You get me.

 

Yep...finished strong, clear winner, Ronald and Richie, the Krays of Kommentary, once they give an order, that order is not taken lightly.

 

He has the chance to emulate Audley Harrison!!!

 

More that he's a fighter who still has some way to go before he's at gold/silver level, hope he stays in the amateur programme, being a young man

by the way, was somewhat saddened to see taylor wanting to continue, possibly in pro ranks, this story doesn't really improve form her on IMO

 

Jocularity aside...that is exactly what is going to happen. He'll win the gold over a squat asiatic, then get pounded to anti-matter in the Pro's, mark my words, this is the Black Duane Bobick.
