Cinco de Mayo is on a Monday

Lets see how Mexican His Excellency is!!

His first name is still Terence.

Yeah. Luckily the guy who got headbutted seemed ok, considering. And at least he got one good ramming of the dude’s head into the door. Also @SmilinLikeRashad you are a fucking potato and this video refutes your claim of the headbutt viability. Lol

Oh, you can “nut” ( headbutt ) a guy as they say in Britain but not from way outside like that. That guy looked like a spastic goat for Pete’s sake.
Headbutts should only be used during close-quarters combat while too near your opponent to get off punches. Then it’s time to use headbutts & elbows.
But one should know how to properly headbutt before using one. A lot of guys bust themselves up worse than their opponent or even worse, knock themselves out. Lol.

That’s what happened to Mikhail Gorbachev.

Yeah, I wasn’t saying the usage in the video Rashad responded to was good. Just that they do have a place, in close.

He let him in far too close. Watch doorman (who do this stuff professionally), they never let them close. Always fence them off.

3 masters of boxing, such beautiful fighters to watch. It’s sad Bivins doesn’t get the credit he deserves and Charles is a top 5 p4p of all time

Hopefully his excellency can make Ring the bible of boxing again.

@billytully Remember Billy Costello, if so what can you tell me about him ? Another guy I vaguely remember, but became a fan of because of the EXCELLENT book Black Lights The Black Lights: Inside the World of Professional Boxing by Thomas Hauser | Goodreads

Here he is against famed trainer Ronnie Shields. Costellos fight against Saoul Mamby was a battle

Wtf Michael Benson was the best boxing aggregator. He is so good Barry steals his Tweets and passes them off as his own words. lol

Gees Your Excellency, you are raining on Barry’s parade.

I am going to have to look into this. lol

Benson (Bendo) can’t have gone totally, surely? :exploding_head:

I think Bendo is just continuing his posting as a Ring Magazine Representative. I recognize his posting style.

His Excellency must now employ Michael to post in his own style, for Ring.
