No worries. He's on Eastside. I'll DM him on there. I meant to recruit him on my initial post to guys like George, and Tin, but may have forgotten him. Eastside's classic section was damn good about two years ago, but there's been a heavy influx of borderline casual trolls in the last few months. Once every good poster from there has come here (and I'm trying for it) I might abandon ship over there.
I mentioned it on another thread, but we're gonna have another guy from Eastside coming over, named Flo_Raiden. He's also very good. He already registered, just need Anthony to verify him.
And after 3 warnings, the punishment is that they have to fly to Florida and fight Esk. At five warnings, they've chosen death... they must travel to Texas to take on the Stinger. @Ring Leader I reached out to Flea. So we'll see what happens.
To my knowledge, nobody ran him off this time. I don't recall any major altercations. He had returned for maybe a month or two, then just disappeared again. The last time I recall talking to was when we debated Duran vs Monzon as the greatest Latin fighter ever. I think he disappeared maybe like a week after, I dunno why. He can always come again as long as he doesn't get hostile. Someone reach out to McDogg and let him know Fightbeat is back. And dare I say, Stafford is always welcome back too. But it seems like he is in fact gone forever, and I'm not surprised. In the S/O days, Sly was a boxing fan. But in the last few years before retiring on here, he was strictly a Floyd fan. With Floyd gone, I don't think he has a reason to post.
No. If the poster in question had a yt channel it would be much more likely to be dedicated to comic book super heroes or movie martial artists.
Whiskey, I found Sly's. You reach out - you're more persuasive than I am. https://www.youtube.com/user/horseawareness
Look at Mr. Privileged here. Most people had to start off at smallapartmentofboxing.com and work their way up.
was Hanzy even a boxing fan? some of us talk shit but i feel like some over the years didn't really even watch boxing
I’m glad xplosive is doing well. Reed recommending him has really been a blessing. I have really lost interest in boxing since long before even Steve Dave left. When Steve-Dave was here, he was the boxing mod. When he left, I ended up being the admin for the whole site. Well I hardly came in this section unless it was a big fight or someone complained. So X taking over this section works out well. He is passionate about the sport which will make him passionate about this section. Very good job X. And thank you Reed for recommending him for the help.
Yeah, he's excellent. As is Flea, of course. I'll start pulling my weight in the posting department soon - the last two weeks have been crazy busy with work so I haven't been able to muster the energy to post much so far.
Its crazy, the moment I effectively booted Mustard from General, this forum has improved within DAYS! He was the main problem all along.
Xplosive, have you thought about inviting scartissue and greynotsoold? Scar always posts quality scorecards and also some analysis in other threads, and Grey is great at fighter analysis and is very, very knowledgeable about east coast boxing and 70s/80s in general. Scar in particular could keep a scorecard thread trucking along consistently.
By ALL means, invite them! When you do, just tell them if possible to register under their ESB usernames, so I can give the heads up to the admin to verify them. My goal at this point is bring all the best from ESB over to here, where we can control trolling and it's not oversaturated with threads and idiots.
Boxing is alive all praise to fight beat and GOD without GOD you can't have forums you can choose different forums anytime but you can't choose against GOD
It's cool man I'm approving basically everyone, even if their handle is russianpharmacy69. There is a question they have to answer though before they get put through the system...."can you step to this?" Most people get it right.
