Not knowing how reproduction works and not knowing that animals (of which we are included), of course, bang the same sex. Dogs are always at it, 5 minutes around some dogs and you’ll be lucky to avoid it.
It's not really reproduction though is it? Plenty of animals engage in gay activity though for sure, clearly it is a natural pursuit.

Pacquiao comes from a very religious country and is religious himself so his views on homosexuality were hardly a surprise. His favourite past time is cock fighting as well, the kind where they tie little knives to the feet of cocks and watch them shred each other to pieces. He actually has a cock fighting arena on his premises. Cock fighting is still a very popular pastime in his own country.

He doesn’t anymore, he had 1000 cocks but gave them away and turned his back on the sport, later becoming a spokesperson against the sport. He also ended his connection with gambling due to his very religious beliefs..

That's good. In any case you'd never expect a man with his beliefs to be surrounded by 1000 cocks.

Usyk now tipping the scales at roughly 230 lbs 5 weeks out from his fight with AJ.

Can't help thinking that he is taking away his best chance of winning the fight by putting on extra muscle. Joshua can move very well at that weight and packs a punch. I think he'd have been more worried about Usyk dancing around him for twelve rounds than planting his feet to trade blows. We'll see, I guess.

What was Theran even doing in there? I get they wanted a win to get the loss against Lyndon Arthur out of mind, but surely they could've found someone who would give him a few more rounds.

Is the Jake Paul fight in the early hours of tomorrow or tomorrow I’m not sure at all?

Really annoyed that I backed Ennis-Brown and he was absolutely robbed against Maxwell… won comfortably by several rounds and got jobbed.

One of the worst decisions I have seen in a long time. Just makes a mockery of the sport.

Anyone else watching this tonight? Being blagged into it by my lad, fortunately it’s a ‘normal’ boxing event without the circus act, I don’t think I could have stomached it otherwise

Looks like Sky are going it alone with this Boxxer crowd, have signed some decent fighters. I’m happy about it as I’m not paying a DAZN subscription of £7.99 after Sky just too expensive. First card below.

Seems more like a warm-up fight for Eubank Jr.

It would be nice if he would call out BJS if he wins as expected. That's a fight people will want to see.

BJS has had to have his eye socket fixed after the Canelo fight I doubt he’ll be fighting anytime soon if ever..

Yeah I’m tempted to get money on, just hard to see Warrington recovering from that pasting, plus his words about make or break don’t fill you with confidence

Looked terrible at the weigh in I don’t think he made weight easy.

Katie fantastic as usual.

What you think of Connor Benn? Thought he was good tonight, the geezer he fought was made of brick, no idea how he took so many crunching body shots without looking bothered.

Was really sloppy for the first couple of rounds but settled after that and was pretty comfortable. Granados is hard to finish, I think only finished by Danny Garcia, he's one of those that never seems to get hit flush, it looks flush till the replay and then you see he's either rolling or getting grazed. Abs of steel though.

No shit :lol: I don’t know if it’s the camera angles tonight, but it looks so much better, shots look really crisp and clean….and some of those body shots were threatening to bring my takeaway up

Evander Holyfield too and Donald Trump is doing the commentary :wenger:
Sports become a circus act. I wonder what the hungry young lads who are in the gym 8 hours a day then fighting for peanuts infront of a crowd of 250 people think of it all
