You are not possibly suggesting that boxing judges could be bent? Nearly as bad as GGG vs Canelo 1st fight, where GGG definitely won but one judge had it Canelo by 8 rounds.Sandpit said:
Even marking that last round as 10-7 doesn’t get you Tom a draw, Fury was way ahead on every commentator’s scorecard.FrancisUrquhart said:
Like the way they managed to get the first fight as a draw, despite Fury outboxing Wilder for a good 9 rounds.MaxPB said:
Nah, dodgy American judges. One might give it to Wilder anyway.tyson said:Sandpit said:
So what do you reckon, Wilder or Fury tonight? Betfair have them 2.04 and 2.12 respectively, too close to call.Casino_Royale said:I see this has turned into Coronaviruschat.com again
It's either Wilder on a knockout or Fury on unanimous- I cannot see any other outcome.....
Let’s hope this is just as epic a fight as the last one.1 -

Well if Sanders wins Nevada tonight it will be the first state that he will win that he didn't last time.
That will definitely break the log jam and make him the favourite.1 -

The thing I find most annoying about boxing PPV vs UFC, is UFC stack their big PPV cards with lots of really top quality fights. Boxing it seems most of the time like the undercard is whoever is cheapest to fill the slots.Sandpit said:

I guess the more disjointed way that boxing is governed and promoted (and all the massive egos involved) makes it more difficult to organise everyone around the same event.0 -
2011 was to be our year. However, someone with a quintessentially Irish name, Alain was selected to referee against France. It was not that he was biased but Sam Warburton was red carded in the 19th minute when anyone who didn't have a quintessentially Irish name like Monsieur Alain Roland would have shown yellow. Yes it was a very careless off the ground tackle and Warburton should have seen ten minutes in the bin. Eventually a very poor France proceeded to the next round.ydoethur said:

The IRB had censured refs for failing to red card players for tip tackling all tournament. Every player who tip tackled during the tournament got a multi week ban.Sandpit said:
The commentator on the night called it one of the most controversial decisions in the history of the World Cup. Even today the Italian only got a yellow for a similar offence.Alistair said:
It was a text book red. Complaing about it isnlike being an England fan complaining about Cueto correctly being called in touch.Mexicanpete said:
2011 was to be our year. However, someone with a quintessentially Irish name, Alain was selected to referee against France. It was not that he was biased but Sam Warburton was red carded in the 19th minute when anyone who didn't have a quintessentially Irish name like Monsieur Alain Roland would have shown yellow. Yes it was a very careless off the ground tackle and Warburton should have seen ten minutes in the bin. Eventually a very poor France proceeded to the next round.ydoethur said:

Welsh Rugby Union fans are the pineapple topping on the wonderful pizza that is Rugby Union.
They've become increasingly bitter since 2003.
Or at least, since the extraordinary talent that was Johnny Wilkinson who kicked you through the semi final and final retired?
How many finals have the Welsh been to since 2003? Or indeed since 1987?
However, five Six Nations trophies to England’s three and four Grand Slams to England’s zero wave hello.
Not that I am bitter.

He's definitely the favourite now!speedy2 said:Well if Sanders wins Nevada tonight it will be the first state that he will win that he didn't last time.
That will definitely break the log jam and make him the favourite.
My current view is that unless you see at least one, and possibly two, of Biden, Bloomberg, Buttigieg and Baemy drop out before Super Tuesday, then Sanders is the nominee.
Indeed, even if one drops out, I think he remains favourite.
That being said, I think the internal pressure on the four moderates to come to some kind of arrangement is going to be absolutely enormous. Buttigieg, for example, will probably be offered DNC support for a competitive Senate seat in 2020.
So, I'm going to go out on a limb and forecast that neither Baemy not Biden contests the Super Tuesday states.0 -

Incidentally, if it does kill 1-2% of humanity, that means the virus is exactly following the plot of US drama series The Leftovers, where 1 in 50 people suddenly and inexplicably vanish. The series documents the strange and profound effects this might have on those that remain. It’s quite good.

I have perspective. See my earlier post today.
I reckon our best bet is just to accept this is going to happen, and tell people with the bug to stay home and take their chances. That way we do not savage the economy or crash the NHS.
In the end it will be the inevitable choice, if this does become a massive pandemic. And we will survive just fine.
In the meantime, this is the biggest news story in the world. Not commenting on remarkable developments is a bit daft, on a political betting website.

Furthermore your comment insults the intelligence of posters on this forum
You need to get a sense of perspective or lose creditabilty
I have perspective. See my earlier post today.
I reckon our best bet is just to accept this is going to happen, and tell people with the bug to stay home and take their chances. That way we do not savage the economy or crash the NHS.
In the end it will be the inevitable choice, if this does become a massive pandemic. And we will survive just fine.
In the meantime, this is the biggest news story in the world. Not commenting on remarkable developments is a bit daft, on a political betting website.
I hope you and Mrs Big G remain fit and well and go cruising for decades to come!
And now I have some grim domestic shit to deal with. Later.
Indeed there is nowhere left we want to visit to be fair
I really do believe that cruises are quite disgusting...and if any good comes out of the Conavirus it is to hit this sickening business that caters for geriatric Tories hard0 -

Or just maybe it is possible to travel from China to Iran?Luckyguy1983 said:
That isn't what I take from it. What I take from it is how the heck does the disease pop up somewhere like that? Assuming it can't teleport. It's a conspiracy that needs a theory. Were the Iranians experimenting with the corona? Do they really have it or are they just using a fake outbreak to control society more and crack down on dissent? Is it an American bio weapon they are trying out on their enemies (in which case look out for it to hit Russia soon)?RobD said:
Erm, how do they know they are there if they are "UNTRACEABLE"?FrancisUrquhart said:Paging our local worrywart...

@Philip_Thompson
I am not a troll...I think that cruises represent the worst aspects of decadence...they are polluting hulks of metal where people consume vast quantities of resources...long haul trips to hunt wild animals are worse...but both appear top draw a certain type...0 -
