Decent goal from hockey practice.

Stupid censorship. In the middle part of the link with the stars it needs to be nextf*ckinglevel, but with that lone star also replace with an u.

Does Punk lack impulse control?

maybe. according to that report he wanted to fight Miro.

the comments are pretty funny.

Here's a follow-up to what
@SeanRossSapp reported earlier about CM Punk not being made aware of his suspension by AEW.

From what I gather, AEW has not directly contacted Punk about his suspension, but he was informed about it by his lawyer.

classic AEW and Tony Khan

OMG Tony fired CM Punk!

You team Liam or Chris tonight SMB ?

I don't care about boxing, but there were some arbs on this so whatever result is most likely to result in a rematch.

Good luck !

this is pretty uncomfortable to watch because Tony isn't very good at this, but credit to him for actually going out there and addressing the crowd.

Was a good fight. I was pleased for Eubank Jr. because he gets a load of stick and it can't be easy being the son of Chris Eubank

thoughts on his language? he "terminated" Phil Brooks!

he can't really say fired. That's Vince's gimmick.

and Trump's.

good one. Tony did the right thing. Phil couldn't be allowed to act like a jackass with no repercussions. this sets a clear line in the sand

true. terminated sounds quite brutal though

it's terminated with cause!
For sure Tony did the right thing.

it's a shame though. CM Punk is a generational talent who sadly can't behave and doesn't fit in the pro wrestling environment.
It would be like if Novak Djokovic got fired from ATP because he kept getting into fights with other players. When Alex DeMinaur made some snide remark about Novak, the Serb took a note and then brutally owned him on home soil next time they played. That's how you handle things, you don't get into fights with co-workers and go after your boss.

oh my! Germany beating USA in basketball!

Announced: King Kenny will face Anthony Taylor on the undercard of KSI vs Tommy Fury and Logan Paul vs Dillon Danis, Oct 14th in Manchester.

will there be good liquidity for these?

KSI vs Tommy is bound to have some pretty good liquidity. They're not as good at promoting as Jake Paul though so won't be that level.

well done Swedes

I'm not even upset Sweden's chances to make Euros next year are gone, because it's been apparent for a while, but how a team with so much offensive talent can be so crap I'll never understand. Coach has done good things for us, but it's time to go now.

that was a bad home defeat last night to Austria

calling edy

what's your opinion on this? are you a fan?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V-VV1y3Uvyo

also ask aaron did he go to the Rev Pro 11th anniversary show? thanks edy

he didn't. He hates travelling to London, and pretty much won't do it for things that are not Taylor Swift concerts.

Jericho is such a workaholic. Friday the Fozzy concert, Rev pro show on the Saturday and then All In on Sunday. Probably recorded a bunch of podcasts over the weekend as well.

MJF

I take it arrong has been talking about NFL in your chat today.

I can't believe these rumors ended up being true. I'm more surprised than I was for Stan/Donna. Some funky clips of Taylor in this thread.

is MJF your favourite now?

he's shoulders above anyone else who has come around in the last 15-20 years. He's not in my fave five of all time or anything, but on air fave for now? Sure.

The times we live in. The article is about the precautions his team is taking to make sure he doesn't fall (and lose lots of votes).

I also looked up axios to make sure it wasn't a Breitbart type of publication, but according to wiki it's leaning left.

Matched on Barcelona when it was 2-2 and the goal had not been given

so is KSI vs Tommy Fury a professional fight or not?

https://www.cbssports.com/boxing/news/ksi-vs-tommy-fury-logan-paul-vs-dillon-danis-fight-card-date-rumors-ppv-price-complete-guide/
The fight was originally listed as an exhibition as it will not be sanctioned by the British Boxing Board of Control, but the bout listing was recently changed to professional on BoxRec.

It is listed on BoxRec as pro. Does that mean it's pro then? Betfair doesn't have it on the exchange, but this could be because it was originally listed as an exhibition. Or they are super strict and needs to have it sanctioned by British Boxing Board of Control? (it is not clear to me if they have sanctioned it or not).

it's not sanctioned by BBBOFC
https://bbbofc.com/schedule

so what made BoxRec (and are they important) change it to professional?

who has sanctioned the fight? someone must have to make it a professional fight

The Professional Boxing Association?

yes

they have it listed on their site.
https://www.pbaboxing.com/

they were the sanctioning body for KSI vs. Joe Fournier too. they're very new from what I gather. maybe you can get the fight listed on BF Exchange now because it's classed as professional?

they say they've been around since the late 90's. BF looking into it. I'm afraid BBBOFC not sanctioning it could be an issue for them, but we'll see.

they sanction both celebrity boxing and professional boxing. From what I understand, on this card this KSI vs Fury fight is a professional bout, every other match, including Logan's fight, isn't.

indeed. KSI wanted this fight to count on Tommy's professional record so he got his team (Mams Taylor & Sauerland Bros) to get it sanctioned as a pro fight. his team delivered on his wish

they're not gonna offer. PBA not official enough for them and they pointed out there was issues with KSI's latest fight sanctioned by them where KSI was originally declared winner and then the bout was declared a no contest six days later.

including swifty if her kelce wins !! beautiful couple

great to hear from you wisey and thanks for the response :)

I'm cheering for Seahawks though

NFL phorum here dead these days

49:ers looked really good in the first 5 weeks, but now looks like injuries are owning them as usual.

They hit 1.2 last night very early. Vikings not as bad as their form suggests either so money backers got duly punished

I decided to cheer for the Seahawks this time. Pete Carroll is like 70 years old and is still trying hard for success. go Hawks!

Let's go Hawks, let's go !!

are you #TeamKCC Toad?

I like Swifty and Kelce so I'm fond of KCC, but I don't have a particular allegiance to them. The way Mahomes is playing mind you I can see them having a fair chance of going back to back !

what a save

Loudest team in the NFL! After doing the "Let'd get loud" thing after everyone down, although in particular important ones, against the Bills I have newfound respect for NFL fans. Takes a lot of toll on your lungs to be super loud so often during a 4 hr game.

*every
not everyone

oh dear England.

ODI done in just over 5 hrs.

England owned again after a promising start. World champs bottom of the table after 6 games.

I wonder if edy is doing the chop in Frankfurt today.
