Juan Manuel Marquez, 40, is still duckin Prince Naseem Hamed, 40, just cos Naz, 40, is younger than Juan Manuel Marquez, 40. This is why Juan Manuel Marquez, 40, is fightin Mike Alvarado, 33, who's younger than Hamed, 40, in May n this is why

by Spring Sun Mar 23, 2014 2:17 am

Juan Manuel Marquez, 40, is a fraud.

by Guest Sun Mar 23, 2014 6:49 am

Where's the proof that Marquez is fighting Alvarado because of Naseem Hamed's age?

by John Bloody Wayne Sun Mar 23, 2014 2:52 pm

Taking on spring. Brave but foolish.

I copied and pasted this 'article', printed it and shown it to all my work colleagues, friend's and family. Everyone thought it was absolutely hilarious, some actually asked for a copy for themselves so they could show it their mates in the gym or down the pub.
The boss wasn't happy though, the excitement caused by the extreme laughter disrupted an entires afternoon's work load.

by BoxingFan88 Tue Apr 01, 2014 6:25 pm

Isn't Hamed at least 3 divisions higher than Marquez?

by jimdig Tue Apr 01, 2014 8:06 pm

In springs world, weight is but a number, age on the other hand is a constant.

by irishbrads Wed Apr 02, 2014 12:15 am

why can these "such and such is ducking Naz cause he's 50 and he's 23" blah blah blah not be deleted as soon as they are posted and whoever posts it banned from the site, it doesn't add anything to the site and it ain't funny

by **seanmichaels** Wed Apr 02, 2014 3:06 am

yes it is.

by milkyboy Wed Apr 02, 2014 4:04 am

Spring (if this is the original) is kind of an institution.

Humour is a personal thing. I'm not sure I ever found spring's posts amusing but I have had the occasional chuckle at the incredulity of those witnessing them for the first time. This increases tenfold if someone actually tries to debate the topic. There's been a few guys who've proudly tried to put spring in his place. None have succeeded obviously.... Though they generally thought they had.

It's went full circle for me now and actually gives me a good laugh every time I see one. I always imagine the confusion of people seeing it for the first time.

SPRING, God love him, should be IN an institution.

About time someone did a "top ten SPRING threads" although I fear they'd struggle to narrow it down to ten

Guys,next time Spring shares his boxing knowledge, if you can't say anything sensible don't say it at all.

by mobilemaster8 Wed Apr 02, 2014 6:34 pm

Good old spring.

Had a chuckle reading this thread.

Remember his first ever post ages ago and i thought......"eh?! What the hell is this guy on about?!"

Now its just funny.

Is it as funny as Winchester though???

ah ok so this is effectively a post for a bit of fun, not meant for anyone who wants to read opinion or discuss an upcoming fight or a fighter from the past!!

the thing is with this forum is the moderation is a bit too inconsistent, i've seen guys get pulled up for going 'off topic' but then i'll see a thread were its 7 pages long but 3 pages of guys digging each other out.

there are some very funny guys on here who have made me laugh, but this "hamed is older than her cause she's younger than him" is nonsense, it might have been a little bit funny the 1st time it was posted many moons ago but unfotunately not anymore, don't get me wrong i'm not massively bothered by i just think its a bit stupid and if guys are gonna get pulled for going off topic, threads are going to get merged for being similar in the topic, then i don't understand why this left

wasn't really an insult, rather a sigh of exasperation.

Good on you anyway rickster that you can define a persons grasp of irony and their general mood simply from one or two posts, quite a skill you've got there thumbsup

Anyway thats me out of this one, made my point and as Rowley said, he likes it so it stays!

I see, I appear to have misread the situation, I always find it difficult to understand a persons exasperation over a couple of posts, and a sigh does not translate well onto a digital forum.

I will leave anon before the place becomes corybantically vituperative, I wish you well bradders with your misplaced anger and shall leave you to ponder the enigma of Spring, and hope, in time, that you come to appreciate the thread and join the fun...

Re: Pacquiao's duckin Hamed, 37, just cos Naz, 37, aint as old as Juan Marquez, 37, This is why
Post by HumanWindmill on Mon 18 Jul 2011 - 8:54

Spring, unknown age, has been missed at 606v2. This is because Spring, unknown age, has always contributed insightful posts about Hamed, 37, who is being ducked by Juan Manuel Marquez, 37, in November, and this is also why Union Cane, unknown age, Bob, unknown age ( who isn't ducking Ralphy, 25, ) Alex Huckerby, 19, John Bloody Wayne, who is fighting Davy Crockett, 225, who is older than Hamed, 37, andygf, milkyboy, unknown age, Fists of Fury, 24, who is younger than Hamed, 37, Sir. badgerhands, bhb001, unknown age and HumanWindmill, believed to be 156, are not ducking the welcome of Spring, unknown age, to the forum.

For the record, I am 46 .... and, like Andy suggests, I welcome Spring!

by milkyboy Fri Apr 04, 2014 4:16 am

46. A fine vintage bhb, though a bit corked in my case.

I too miss windy. But then I miss waingro, so perhaps not the biggest compliment he's ever had.

by Guest Fri Apr 04, 2014 4:37 am

Aye. Getting wistful is a sign of being in your forties......Jumpers for goalposts, two decent British heavyweights fighting each other ,three divisional belts,free terrestrial fights ,and only three tv channels!But if you tell the kids that today,they don't believe you.

We couldn't afford a ball. Our dad would make us slice our own heads off and kick them around the park.
