you can’t blame trump. not only was the event planned, it was pre-planned. possibly in advance, unlike normal plans.

a moccamaster will outlast several mr. coffees while looking cooler, being easier to clean and brewing a better cuppa

brain damage has always been an obvious risk of boxing. the participants were usually under no illusion there. we used to call old boxers “punchy” and now we use a more scientific term.

it’s a poor man’s sport but the opportunities have dwindled as a result of promoter fragmentation, the lack of (free) televising, and rise of other safer or more popular sports. outside of the top few, you’re fighting for peanuts. so i reckon those who’d ever given it a shot have their sights elsewhere, even mma.

i miss the good-old days of well-matched world-class talent but we’ll never see it again. and that’s probably a good thing. my entertainment is not worth the hurt and exploitation.

on the plus side you get to defy expectations when new people meet you. that’s always pretty fun
