Re-read page 50 from the top. Adios started this little infraction. Tom and adios had been colluding to be being cheeky little cunts. Adios tried hard but failed. Just doesn't have it.

Reported. Have you not been made aware of the new standard operating procedure required?

Fuck off, you little Northern Ireland cunt.

Thanks Gloomy. Revealer of the truth. You don't require the truth syrup.

Right, I see a piss take here. Good job. Very good job. Well done.

Is that so... Never seen a report button on your little phone screen or monitor, yet you mention "report" randomly in a legitimate forum thread? You are a fucking idiot.

Trying to turn this around now in desperation are you, you flop?!? "Reported" You sad wanker.

Funny shit. A sad time for others though. Very sad. If you don't like the topic discussed then fuck off and 'adios' amigo...

This member, adios, actually reported racism, did he? I thought this clown was being random which is what he is best at on the forum with his so-called responses.

I actually like Conor McGregor tbh. When I first saw him in the UFC he reminded of that Pikey in Snatch. But he is a good fighter and while I still think Mayweather will win it will be closer than many think. But this is where the money is made. These promos and this is where McGregor does his best. He has made Mayweather look a fool. I'd be surprised if he doesn't turn it up a bit to save a bit of face.

People will get sucked into paying, and you have to acknowledge McGregor's ability to sell it with his showmanship. He is the best and Mayweather is playing to it well. Each to their own though. I paid $50 to watch Robert Whittaker win the UFC interim middleweight belt on Sunday. But I have followed his career from the start. I have paid to watch McGregor too but in the hope that he would get belted

Certainly a close fight. Could have gone either way I guess. Horn was the aggressive fighter for most of the fight and 'owned' the middle of the ring. Pac-Man needed to finish him or at least knock him down in the 9th but couldn't do it. Ref said he was going to call it off but didn't and Horn finished stronger in the last 3 rounds. Great achievement over a legend regardless of who you thought had won. Pac-Man had the greater vocal support. That was quite noticeable.

Chris Eubank will fight the winner.

Yeah, he's talked about wanting a stake in the company. Not sure how that would work being a competitor in it. He has pretty much achieved all there is to achieve as well except fighting inside Croke Park for a UFC title. We'll need to see how he goes in this fight and his goals and motivations after it but the UFC have been supportive of him to do this under contractual obligations with them so I'm not sure he'll have that "fck em" approach. More than likely it'll be cross-promotional stuff.

Yeah, no question it is about the money. $100m going into Mayweather's pockets, reportedly, and McGregor not much less than that. McGregor will more than double his worth with this one I reckon. I think this bout benefits the UFC more though. It is gathering attention from people who believe MMA is a mug's sport. It certainly isn't that as most who detest it don't understand the number of disciplines required to be world class at it, but a few boxing purists here anyway are scathing of it. A decent performance by McGregor would I suppose legitimise the sport of MMA in the detractors' eyes and that is what I think Dana White is looking forward to the most from this, besides the obvious attention and coverage this is getting which enhances the UFC brand. I'll probably watch this at the pub myself, not sure I can be bothered about the undercard either.

Yeah, I know. I don't know what to think about this fight tbh. What does it prove? Does it do anything for boxing which I think as a sport and interest is waning. Certainly won't affect MMA. Conor McGregor is the best boxer in the UFC but if he wins or loses, does it matter? I will be watching it though.

Mayweather is old and not as strong as McGregor, but he has the skills to keep him at a distance and use his jab to score points. I don't think Mayweather is capable of finishing anyone of note anymore. McGregor is training to last the distance. He will have the stamina. If McGregor can't finish him in the first 4 rounds Mayweather will outlast him and win.

Mayweather is a seasoned pro man, been there done that. McGregor will have too much respect for him after having a right go the first few rounds.

It will go the distance, McGregor and Mayweather, but Mayweather will win. McGregor will put on the bigger and more dazzling hits but Mayweather will put more on overall. People will argue it and no one will be none the wiser, but both will be set for life.

It has just starting to become getting out of control, re-active rather than solely pro-active as was previously. The warning signs have been there.

Points have been made; This is different from the conflict with the IRA. The IRA sought independence. Radical Islam's goal is to create a caliphate and to destroy the non-believers - women and children included - and by whatever means possible.

Al Qaeda and ISIS are borne out of the result of opposing Western Democracy, yes, but they kill each other too, and it is also borne out of a need to be the purest of the Islamic faith so-to-speak, and that is to revert to medieval philosophy and tradition, and who believes the 'truer' version of the religion.

Absinthe - is that still available with LSD in it or is it banned in Europe?

Now a car has rammed into a police car in Paris on Champs-Elysees. Unconfirmed yet whether it is terror related but looking that way.

Was born in '78 and only a kid during the most intense of the IRA's activities. Got a grasp of what was going on in the late '80's and early '90s but as you say reporting of it wasn't prolific especially over here. What you describe is pretty bad. Hope things don't get as bad as that tbh.
