The fact that it has chosen not to determine bouts by knock-outs would suggest otherwise but the fact that it qualifies under rule number one and partially qualifies under rule number two means I can give boxing dispension. Boxing is also not boring, unlike other games and pastimes that are played in long pants.

Ray French introduced the oxymoronic concept of the 'possible certain try'. Pure Colemanballs.

The Rugby Football League are in the process of reviewing the video that you are referring to. We do not condone behaviour of this nature and have contacted the player’s employer, Hull F.C., who have confirmed that they are dealing with the incident under their club rules.

Bouts are determined by knock outs just ask khan and chisora
Many fights go to the judges but there is no other way to resolve a bout
Boxing is most definitely a sport, any suggestion otherwise is ludicrous

| Quote: cod'ead "Golf is not, never has been and never will be a sport.
There are two simple tests for what does and does not qualify to be a sport
1) Is it played in long pants?
2) Does it require the subjective view of a judge or panel of judges to decide the scoring (and ultimate winner)?
If the answer to either of the above is "yes" then it quite clearly is not a sport.'"
No there isnt. You are trying to appear clever but coming across as an idiot.
You may not like golf but trying to come up with some stupid test to not call it a sport is ridiculous, especially as your argument as been so easily disproved.

| When's Ray French going to call it a day? The French and Davies combo, they're like a Granddad/Grandson combo. Gives me real earache.

| I can't see what the fuss is about - a minor delay, no rugby was missed and an army of golf fans weren't left up in arms; good bit of juggling by the BBC.
That good work didn't continue in the commentary though - French and Davies are woeful and neither of them sounded like they had much of a clue what was going on, other than French constantly reminding us that one player or another is a 'powerful lad.'
I do like Clare Balding though - her jolly hockeysticks enthusiasm for the game is very infectious.

39110_1363272058.jpg Dropkick Murphy..we actually saw and heard a mass of bouncing and scarf and flag waving to Dale Cavese that drowned out anything we could muster.. It stopped us singing our own celebratory songs, it died out seconds later when we accepted we couldn't be heard over the Wigan lot
Celebrations muted from us, job done from them. Most fans who slag them off are jealous their own club's support is nowhere near that good
-
sally cinnamon..Why not discuss Wigan? It's a rugby league message board. Wigan are the most famous brand in rugby league
-
Tre Cool..Saints fans are hopeless unless it's a cup final or grand final. Wigan fans are so much more loyal and passionate
-
the flying biscuit..Wires havent been massively succesful over the years, but I've spoke to Brian Bevan And he spoke to me and i wouldnt swap that for Wigans History, ever
-
Ande..on the TV i could only hear the Wigan fans with about 10 to go
-
Saint94..Every team is in your feckin shadow, we all know

| Lets turn this around...
The rugby is on before the Golf and overuns by going to extra time.... I'm pretty certain they would delay the start of the golf coverage.
No rugby was missed. Some people just moan for the sake of it.

Any game that takes five days to complete and has breaks so that the participants can have "lunch & tea" could never be classed as sport.
