    :cool:

    That was beautiful! Second punch was a classic! And I love the fact they tried to press charges against him! Swift justice on his part!

    "His " woman? She's hardly a possession.

    It's written by the mirror, a complete rag. I wouldn't focus on the text tbh...
    The most important part is the video and it's fantastic to see yobs getting what they deserve.

    She is his woman. Got a problem with that? Say it to his face.

    Watch out, the PC brigade are about :rolleyes: If it said "his wife" would you have complained that it should have just said "a wife" or "a woman"?

    There's no woman in the clip, anyways :confused:

    I suppose "White Knight takes down Thugs Threatening his Beautiful Wife" makes a better story than "Thug attacks other thugs in unprovoked attack." :rolleyes:

    Unprovoked attack? Did you even bother watching the video? Within the first few seconds the boxer was struck first.

    The story is well known now since it went viral and major outlets reported it as a boxer who was surrounded by men who were hassling his wife while he was in the toilets.

    It's pretty clear that there was nothing unprovoked about it if you look at the video. Are you being contrary for the sake of it?

    If nothing else, the video shows the class and self-control he showed. There was no brawling or scrapping like a thug. One hit, guy goes down and he leaves him alone. Thugs start swinging arms in and kicking unconscious people in the head. The exact opposite of what this guy did.

    I don't know what video you're watching, as bad as the footage is it is quite clear that the boxer was not struck at any point.

    The first guy went for him alright, but there appears to have been no contact made between them until the boxer retreated a few steps and the boxer hit the guy walking towards him (8 seconds) ; again, the second guy he hit didn't manage to get his strike in. The boxer hit him at 10 seconds. And then he hits another guy three times in the head in a row at 18 19 and 20 seconds, with no obvious provocation and absolutely no counter-strike (or even an attempt at a counter-strike)from his opponent.

    Well, that means it's all true then, doesn't it?

    In fairness, a video can't really fill us in on the background of what happened here.

    Whatever, I'm just saying that the story attached to this short video could be a fabrication. Nevermind :)

    EDIT: and there was no Wife in the video either!!!!
