So many great stories in boxing, I highly recommend The Boxing Register, a must have.

The Tom Molineaux story gotta read.

Tiger Flowers another must read.

When I was in my youth.
I knew a lot of motocross riders. In between races you could see them laying down & have their team wrap their forearms in duct tape trying to get the blood out of them. (basically) So they would be ready to go out for their next race. I am sure this day & age there is better ways. But that was when I 1st realized how taxing their races were.

A pro doesn't have to do that unless he is coming off a layoff. You should be in good enough shape to race until exhaustion and do it again tomorrow.
When I was racing in Salt lake City, I broke down in practice. Pro race has fence all the way around the track. Long push back to my pit. I picked out 2 big, ugly biker dudes standing next to the 6 foot fence. i said, "catch it when it comes over" They laughed and then got knocked down by the bike getting thrown over the fence. I was 170 pounds......

Maybe he will be the next Hershel Walker. Walker is still boxing at around 60.

Hershel in college vs. Hershel now:

I was at least a little interested in that one...in no way shape or form did I think Paul could've beat Floyd in a fight

I was interested in the last one, but i still feel floyd put on a “show”, this was a joke

Really? Trying to tie ocho cinco boxing to tebow? Sad flex.

nice link btw. You couldnt even get that right.

No shit. That was fuckin terrible. Both the shitty rationale and the non-link.

The race that eats its young. Only 15 people have ever finished the grueling and secretive Barkley Marathons — here's what the race is like, according to people who've tried

For McGregor that was an instance retirement package for him. Straight up about the money.
He made more in that fight than he will his whole rest of his life.
