didnt forget them mate they just were not world champions.....if i went through all the london british champions id be here all day..... could of added mo hussein,gary mason,kaylor,jimmy batten etc etc etc right back to john gardner....im not going through all the british champions as well as world champions....think i proved my point thats good enough just a little footnote to this post from 2 of the names.....a good advert not to have ex boxers working as doorman.....both mo hussein and gary delaney both killed men with 1 punch while working.... delaney is currently serving a life s

kirkland might have been from nottingham but he did his fighting out of the royal oak gym in canning town under terry lawless........ incidentally my list also forgot a few other london world champions.... maurice hope....and one chris eubank

shea neary won the wbu title.....if we are counting the wbu i can probably add at least another 6/7 londoners to the list ! herol graham never won a world title.....and jim watt/ken buchanan were scottish !!....... this has gone from manc/liverpool.....to manc/liverpool and the north east.......to manc/liverpool the north east scotland......in fact anywhere north of watford ....and you still cant compete with london incidentally you forgot froch and clinton woods..... im even trying to help out myself

[quote name='maxhardcore' date='26 November 2009 - 10:57 PM' timestamp='1259276223' post='1337031 The population of the 32 boroughs of london is actually just over 7 million.....if you take east london alone with a population of around 1.5 million you cannot compare the amount of WORLD FAMOUS sportsman.....to hartlepool !!....sorry and all that,you make a good argument and yes for population hartlepool probably adds up ok....but we are talking about sportsman who have competed at world level.....i stick my neck out and say when it comes to football and boxing no other area in britain

What a strange question....not that i know of why...and what a " quare " question is im not sure
-
Why wigan....because the 2 lads i was originally having the debate with were from the manchester and liverpool areas.....manchester and liverpool being a similar sized area to london id say thats fair......but if you want to chuck the north east in as well thats fine......so world champions ?? If you think michael gomez or brian/jack london were world class fighters thats up to you.....im not blinded by the smoke mate im dealing with FACTS.....i named a whole bunch of boxing world champions out of london ....name me the same amount or more of world champions from manc/liverpool areas and t

only because he never played for west ham.....theres quite a few i left out ....could have chucked tony cottee in,teddy sherringham........all back to jimmy greaves and trevor brooking,the list is endless....
-
Thats a fair point....but then if you want to just go by players instead of teams....then sorry but east london win hands down,in fact my west ham wins hands down half the england team either started off or made their name at west ham.....dafoe,lampard,carrick,johnson,james,ferdinand,cole x 2.....the list go,s on right back to paul ince !....even john terry is out of east london !....if it wasnt for west ham england would never have won the world cup for crying out loud Also west ham field week to week a higher number of english players than any other premier league team....not as many as b

Had a few northern lads doing some work at my home last week...had a bit of banter and debate about who has had more sporting success london or the north.....we went through 3 main sports Boxing.....undoubtedly London Cricket....not a fan myself,but conceded it to the North so the decider was footie..... We worked it out like this London.....North chelsea - man utd arsenal - liverpool spurs - man city fulham - everton west ham - wigan All these are pretty evenly matched and all from the same local area.... i chose 4 lo

In that case common sense says you hold your hands up and say " no more ".....i,ll help anyone out but the first sign of piss taking and not making use of the help then f**k em there out ! We must have sent billions over the years to starving africans if they cant get it right by now then f**k em and anyone who looks like them. Us english are the first to send out planes with aid for other countries.....i dont see anyone rushing to help us when we have a problem....like everything else we are here to have our pants pulled down then made to feel guilty about it !
-
Absolutely....its near 30 years since that prick geldoff started brainwashing us with the feed africans nonsense.....all these years later they are still standing around eating flies,sooner or later you just got to say no more.......especially when we have problems of our own....when it comes to raising money for foreigners we are the number 1 gullible fools worldwide.....what a farce it is when we have a problem in our own country these " feed the world " idiots are too worried about running round after africans than helping out our own.... If someone is willing to set up some sort of fun
-
ill second that Its worth remembering this country gave 7.1 billion pounds in aid to foreign countries last year whether it be starving africans or what.....absolutely right charity begins at home....shame it takes a tragedy for that to be realised !!

Not a bad book......maybe Ed would enjoy a read himself at the moment i doubt he,s too busy.....shame he didnt take a few tips from his own book,might have saved 130 odd dogs !....again.

You think the english are c**ts fair enough....thats your decision stick to your decision....dont edit it before anyone sees it !...... We had our controversial incident ( maradona ) did we get sympathy off the irish/scottish etc ....no.....now you have your own controversial incident dont think your getting any sympathy off us.....i dont call that fighting i call that fair.
-
The irish male called penny....who thinks the english are c**ts........( i saw your post before you edited it )......... Yes we played brazil with 9 first team players missing and lost 1 nil....id say thats quite an achievement on a world scale.
-
It never ceases to amaze me how bitter the irsh/scots/welsh are towards us english when it comes to sport.....i remember following barry mcguigans fighting career,ken buchanan....even colin jones and being 100 % behind them....whenever the irish/scots/welsh have played in world cups ive been behind them....ryan giggs is one of my all time sporting heros...... Yet when the boots on the other foot it seems they all hate us english when it comes to sport...i just dont get it ! Personally i dont think video technology will ever come into football and rightly so....in the eyes of the powers in

Have to agree.....100 lb at 18 inches is just wrong no matter what breed/s it is.

Was lucky enough to have good seats and was probably only 20 feet from hayes corner and every person within the same distance i was clearly heard haye say to adam booth " ive cracked my hand "...( exact words )...personally i dont think it was a break or crack but he did clearly hurt his hand.... I dont think haye should have got the decision myself but no doubt he landed the cleaner more telling punches and was never in trouble himself.....had haye showed a little more confidence in himself i think he would have stopped the russian.... As for carl froch fighting haye ..... froch wouldnt l

............the classic line " I only bred them for myself as i wanted another dog..........................but now ive chosen my one the other 7 are for sale for 350 each "

Well that was a pointless exercise then wasnt it........... Its a funny old place the internet.........only on the internet could somebody come out with stuff like this and not end up with police/nspcc on their doorstep !

i dont think you can compare some silly bird with a wealthy father to somebody who had to work hard to make the most of their talent to create wealth........

Dont mean to be rude but you sound like one of those deranged women who sit writing letters to jailed serial killers explaining how with the proper treatment you can " change their ways "....... Do the dog,your kids....and ultimately yourself a favour and get rid of the dog......the mere fact you are on here asking what to do about this dog you describe above that lives with 3 children tells me you really need to get a grip of yourself before something happens YOU will have to live with......
