ATG pre fight brawling champion.

Following Chisora/ Haye I thought I would dedicate a thread which does the much loved and remembered pre fight brawl phenomenon justice.
The over reaction that we have seen in the media, with subjects such as morels being discussed and words such as disgrace being thrown about like confetti has hidden the fact that pre fight brawls are as much apart about boxing as gum shields and boxing gloves. Its a time honoured tradition that has been practised by the very best of this sport.

At the end of the day these events happen at the end of a tough training regime with both fighters at the peak of their physical and mental prowess. Both fighters are ready to rumble there and then so anything can set them off. Lets all get off our high horse and applaud Haye and Chisora for showing passion and bringing something to talk about in the heavyweight division.

I found this on youtube....

enjoy!

And remember...never take your eyes off your opponent, even when you bow.

Berbick-Holmes will always be the holy grail of pre / post fight dust ups. Let's be clear about this; there are surreal sights, and then there's the sight of 'Larry Big Pants' executing a WWE-style flying kick off a car bonnet on to a hapless Trever Berbick, as well as about twenty unsuspecting others.

Agreed - but Tyson is the king of the ridiculous - for everything...

In olden times, people would have removed a microphone from his vicinity. In the cruel, modern world - we shove it under his nose and wait for the customary lunacy.

Its like Bedlam Hospital - but without paying the penny to get in.
