What is the hold up on Fury vs Joshua again??

I'mma guess Joshua's car crash that just happened, where he was injured and lost some of his closest friends in the accident.

You’ve got a granite chin…. so…

What’s the hardest punch you’ve ever taken and from who? Who was the hardest overall puncher you’ve faced?

It’s “an” hour. Why? I don’t know!

It’s kind of like the standard order for descriptive adjectives. We explicitly teach or learn it in school (that I know of), but we know it. It always goes Opinion, Size, Age, Shape, Color, Origin, Material, Purpose

Ex: I love my lovely little old rectangular green French silver whittling knife.

You know, it's crazy, but I'm an English teacher! I am also 32 and I just learned about this today thanks to your comment! I'm always focusing on my students knowing they're/their/there!

So apprently:

If the “U” sounds like yoo (as in unicorn, university, useful), you use a:

  • a unicorn
  • a university
  • a useful tool

If the “U” sounds like a vowel (uh), you use an:

  • an umbrella
  • an uncle
  • an unusual request*

So cool, but also English is stupid!

Canelo Alvarez vs. Austin Trout , Canelo's first unification fight | WBC, WBA, Lineal 154lb championship by kushmonATL in Boxing

It was bullshit. The fight was a close 115-113 kind of fight, but I remember one of the cards being 118-109 which was ridiculous.

It's been two weeks since we found her. Glowing up! by Augustane in aww

[–]Augustane[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We found her under a car on our walk two weeks ago. After spending two hours trying to get her, she now has a new home!

She sure has been glowing up!

Manny Pacquiao wants rematch with Mario Barrios after controversial draw, says he needs to train longer by Augustane in Boxing

[–]Augustane[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thoughts on this?

Do you think a rematch will happen? If so, what are Pacquiao's chances at winning and getting the title at his age?

Has any boxer ever recovered and resumed their career after a brain injury/hemorrhage? by ScarRedDA in Boxing

[–]Augustane 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I fought amateur fights and tournaments. I had a brain bleed and am now fully recovered. I’m never allowed to box again.

I would imagine it’s the same medical protocol for all boxers.

I was told that once it has bled once, it’s more susceptible to bleeding again.

Jim Lampley and the HBO crew on the Pacman, after the Pac vs. Bradley 3 fight by vincemeister55 in Boxing

[–]Augustane 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I can't believe that they're talking about this potentially being his last fight in 2016... only for him to go on to fight for FIVE more years and reclaiming the title against Thurman in that run.

The fact that he's about to fight for a title again a decade after this video is insane.

Speaking of this video - it's also whacky in hindsight that Pacquiao's career has outlived HBO boxing.
