I like the fact that Stephen King criticised Kubrick’s The Shining (1980) and then brought out the 1997 TV series abomination in response.

Does how dreadful the 1997 Shining TV series, prove that Stanley Kubrick was right to go his own way in 1980?

When has it taken a tourist to appreciate something cool about the UK?

TFW you’re 49-0 at aged 32.

Is it an urban myth that Peter Sutcliffe was an exceptionally good lorry driver?

What I thought of, when I heard about that surgeon in Germany “catching” cancer from a patient.

Could the fact that Julio Cesar Chavez beat up Roger Mayweather so bad, explain why Floyd can’t read, as some sort of hereditary factor?

Which boxer do you think had the most stupid ring team? For me, it is Meldrick Taylor’s, when they told him while he was way ahead on points, that he needed to make that last round count. Taylor promptly went one on one with Chavez and lost by TKO with 2 seconds to go.

The heated blood test in The Thing (1982) is legitimately one of the most clever but simple strategies employed in a film.

You all might think this M’fer is overrated, but he has to be like the only boxer to ever retire with some level of dignity.

Dr Jack Matthews, WW2 glider pilot, first class rugby player and managed an amateur draw with boxing legend Rocky Marciano (who regularly hospitalised opponents, and was 49-0 undefeated as a professional). Proof that not all British grandads were full of shit in the tales they tell.

What do you regard as the best role of Bruce Willis that isn’t Die Hard?

In the ring Rocky Marciano 49-0 would beat people into comas and made Muhammad Ali glad he never encountered Rocky. Outside the ring, Marciano was public spirit and kind.

The Ezzard Charles second fight brought out Rocky Marciano’s sadistic side perfectly. Charles split Marciano’s nose in half, so Rocky ensured that Charles left with as little of his mental functions as possible.

What is your favourite Joe Louis performance?

What is a UK urban legend that you think has some credibility?

If you were to suggest one event that got you into your favourite hobby/sport, to another person, what would it be?

The first Las Vegas massacre, when Meldrick Taylor was left requiring a blood transfusion after Chavez was through with him.

Thunder Vs Lightning. Julio César Chávez with two seconds to go and hopelessly behind on the score board, is awarded the win over Meldrick Taylor because of last moment stoppage. Taylor who was about to win, would require a blood transfusion and resembled a car crash victim afterwards.

TFW you’re Joe Calzaghe and all your American opponents find out the hard way that just because you prefer to fight in car parks across the UK, you can still kick their ass on the World’s Stage.

Ricky Hatton looking like Joe Calzaghe’s son.

How come Ali got brain damage and Frazier didn’t, when Ali was an out fighter and Frazier an in fighter (so took more damage)?

Nathan Bedford Forrest’s tactics were so effective, that General Grant, had to change his approach multiple times and Forrest “was the only Confederate cavalryman of whom Grant stood in much dread.”

If you could have a Kubrick film made in any period, which one would it be?

In Scream (1996), Casey Becker’s football player boyfriend Steve is killed before her. This is a reference to the fact that Gainesville Ripper Danny Rolling on whom Scream is based, would remove any pesky male roommates first, to allow for more easy murdering.
