Ie was a bit naff wasn't it? He still got beaten up by a 3rd rate boxer.
Perhaps put a decent boxer in the ring.
I understand Anthony Joshua is not too fussy these days.

If you have a degenerative brain disease I'm not sure that matters.
There's an argument that boxing is some way ahead of a lot of other sports when it comes to safety. I'm. Not sure how strong that argument is, but footballers still self assess themselves for concussion together with a physio hired by the same employer, and we've all seen riders who barely know where they are after a crash helped back on a bike by a soigneur.
Mine isn't an argument in favour of rugby (inherently injurious from the necessity of high-impact bodily contact), or football (headers should be outlawed, given what we know).
Cycling would go with all the other risky sports (mountaineering, wing suiting, skiing etc) where minor errors can have very serious & fatal consequences.
But seldom do. Statistical evidence with a sample size of one.
I'm sure statistics are there that can help people assess relative risk, if they care to.
I can help with evidence of skin lost from hip or elbow.
Or, as a British Cycling coach said to me: If you haven't got the scars you haven't been trying hard enough.
More stuff surfacing. This is from an FBI intake file. It's the first step into an investigation so none of this has been verified:

It'll pay to be alert to inaccurate documents being released - there was one purported to be from Nasser to Epstein, and the DoJ have admitted it was fake, but that they still released it along with the rest, despite their knowing it wasn't real. Expect plenty of that sort of stuff, to try to muddy the waters.
[...]You believe the DOJ?! The whole thing is a fake isn't it?
You can't write this sh*t.

In time, the name 'Trump' will be totally toxic.
One would hope so, but I gave up hoping to understand America some time ago, and have more faith in the tooth fairy than US justice to actually deliver justice.
In the meantime, I'm not going to hold my breath or try to analyse every 'smoking gun' document that the DoJ releases.
Are you a bit mixed up?
The DOJ are trying to hide the smoking gun(s).
