Boxing Sheep NEW GAME 22/06 PM me answers by 3:30pm

First topic message reminder :

Anyone ever play sheep? Basically I'll ask a series of "mainly boxing" related questions and the aim is to answer with the most popular answer. So for example if I asked name a heavyweight champion and 7 people said Ali they would get 7 points. If 5 said Louis they would get 5 points and so on. Whoever gets the most points wins. You would PM me your answers. I've seen it played on other forums and it seems to work well and passes some time.
Seems to be a bit of interest so we'll go again.

I have included the odd non boxing question to jazz it up a bit.

Name a boxer from Scandinavia
Name an active counter puncher
Name a retired counter puncher
Name a fighter who quit in a fight
Name someone who defeated Antonio Margarito
Name an attractive TV character
Name a character from the sitcom "Friends"
Name a U.S state
Name a fight where a Brit beat an American for a title
Name a 606 V2 boxing member whos name is boxing related

Everyone welcome please PM me your answers in an unnumbered list by 3:30pm if you want to play. Remember you are looking for the most common answer.

He is the guy who said Ezzard Charles had never won a title. He should be disqualified for that alone.

And I get stick for getting some beardy Americans the wrong way round.

Union is shot though, as his answer to the boxing movie question proves,

Listen Adrienne, there are other Champions on here you know. I am the inaugural winner and therefore the best.

Bit like saying you're the inaugral winner of Strictly, not sure it's that much to be proud of Tino......

There should be a game of sheep for questions specifically about 606 posters.

i.e.

Easiest to wind up
worst dress sense!

That had to be the funniest answer I had read yet, was laughing at my desk like a saddo yesterday

oh yeah. only just realised i wrote that. i'm gonna blame on the fact that i was working at the same time. i was just trying to think of someone who didn't win a title but still has a really high rank in their division. kind of forget about heavyweight. whoops

only 5.7 stars, i'll give it a miss!

I want to congratulate you on your victory. I want to, but I can't. Well done JamesWardCox. Whoever you are.

We having another one pp?

If so, can I remind you that this is a boxing forum, and questions about films and film stars are off-topic and therefore not allowed.

I don't know, Natasha Kaplinsky has had a great career post Strictly.

Aye, me too buddy. jammin is now my favourite poster and will forever be known as Adrienne to me.

Not sure anyone is disputing the existence of the film, Union. Merely pointing out that your answer was crap. Paul Newman, Kirk Douglas and Jon Voight would have all been correct answers but they would have also been rubbish answers.

Now now Sean. You're always harping on about encouraging new members etc. Well done to jamesedwardcox!

I'll try squeeze in one more Union. Mainly boxing related but I'll have to go off topic a bit to keep it fresh. Running out of questions mate...

Ok i'll do one more but with a shorter deadline. Questions will be up soon.

Where's the 'throwing your toys out the pram' emoticon when you need it......

Was only joking mate, have your film questions if you wish. It was my own fault for giving my own answers rather than those I thought you plebs would come up with. Lesson learned. I won't be Devon Lock-ing it this time.

Don't like the way we buckled to Mod pressure to get rid of film questions tho......they were my best scores!!

Yeah got a PM from Union warning me of my future conduct etc so decided it best to leave out the film ones.....

Actually shocked that in among boxing questions that some general knowledge questions are subject to reprimand!

Can union and Sean stop writing in red, its not allowed for the rest of us so stop it!

My dictatorial reputation precedes me, I was only joking about the film questions!

You are right, sorry

Couldn't resist. But seriously, no more.

Ha I know. I put in some random other ones instead. Don't worry films will be back in another edition..
