*What about the upcoming bout between Haye and W. Klitschko? I am in support of Haye, because teh division needs life breathed in in desperately, but I disapprove of the way he is conducting himself to the brothers, I mean, Wlad's basically giving him an undeserved shot, so he should be grateful. Still, I think Haye will make the most of it, since the best opponent either has beaten in [[Juan Carlos Gomez]], and will outspeed a KO Wlad, hopefully. I don't think he can win a decision in Germany, hopefully he'll go to Kiltschko's gut, something I don't see too many fighters do. I heard that Rogan is 38? I got the June issue of [[The Ring Magazine]] today, and it features Rogan, so I'll be able to read more about him. I like Hatton, I think he's a very cool dude and he's The Ring Magazine champ, making him the true, legitimate, and only junior-welterweight champion. I'm just not sure if he'll be able to deal with the speed of Pacquiao. I was wrong about the Malignaggi fight, but you know what they say, you are only as good as your last fight. In this one, Hatton will be impressive going in. I don't think it's out of the realm of possibility that Hatton will win, but I guess we'll have to see it Saturday. (In my case, I 'll have to see it when HBO shows the fight before the live broadcast of Antonio Tarver-Chad Dawson II.) After that, we should discuss it.--[[User:Jedi Kasra|Jedi Kasra]] ([[User talk:Jedi Kasra|talk]]) 17:34, 29 April 2009 (UTC)

Hi Jimbo, could you let me know why you adjusted the titles of the individual tournaments and also what specifically it is about the article you feels requires clean up? Thanks Notjamesbond (talk) 08:43, 24 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hey

I wanted to talk to you about these last few months in boxing, and the next few months. Is that alright?--Jedi Kasra (talk) 19:10, 24 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  • So I suppose you missed the Haye-Barrett fight? I saw the whole thing on Youtube, it was very cool, and I'm glad that Haye weighed in at 215 lbs, in my opinion he should not go above 224. Holyfield only weighed in above 220 once, and that was the second bout with John Ruiz, where he weighed in at 221. I am dissapointed in the fact that The Ring magazine did not choose to rank Haye, rather choosing to rank unbeaten Ukrainian Alexander Dimitrenko. They said in this year's May issue that they'd rank Haye as soon as he fought at heavyweight, but they didn't! I don't understand why, according to Boxrec.com, Dimetrenko KO'd one Luan Krasniqi in the third round, on the same day Haye KO'd Barrett. What I don't understand is how The Ring could consider that more of an accomplishment that Haye knocking down Barrett five times, kayoing him in round 5. Anyway, I really like Haye, I prefer him to Chris Arreola, and I feel he can inject excitement back in the heavyweights, but I just feel that he should take his time, like Evander Holyfield, did when he first campaigned for the h'weight title, and fight more contenderd until the Klitschkos have no choice but to fight him. Opponents for Haye are out there, he could fight Dimetrenko, Ibragimov, Maskaev. Former unsisputed cruiserweight champ O'Neil Bell recently announced his desire to campaign at h'weight, Haye could take him on. Holyfield was ranked #1 by ing magazine and the WBA and WBC for TWO YEARS after beating James Tillis, and Tyson ducked him, for whatever reason, fighting Frank Bruno, Tyrell Biggs, Carl Williams, and James Douglas. Still, Holyfield kept busy, trying the approach of beating everybody so Tyson has nobody left to fight.--Jedi Kasra (talk) 21:06, 25 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • I would like to see Hatton fight the winner of Pacquiao-De La Hoya, which I believe will be Pacquiao, but Iwould also like to see him fight WBC junior-welterweight champ Timothy Bradley, who beat Junior Witter for that title. He's got more sting in his punch, I believe, I didn't not see him beat Witter, but I did see him beat Edner Cherry, so.--Jedi Kasra (talk) 21:15, 25 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • How goes everything, man? Been a while. Who are you backing for the Hatton-Pacquia fight?--Jedi Kasra (talk) 15:26, 28 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • By the way, I know I live in Virginia in the US, but because I have DISH network, I can get a Setanta Network channel. I enjoy watching the Steve Bunce Boxing Hour, it sucks that there isn't a show completely dedicated to boxing here in the US year round. Yeah, we have seasons of "Friday Night Fights" usually on every week, but a season usually lasts from January to September, and HBO and Showtime have their cards typically twice per month. Anyway, I have heard a lot about a boxer named Martin Rogan. Have you seen him fight, and just how good is he?--Jedi Kasra (talk) 15:32, 28 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • What about the upcoming bout between Haye and W. Klitschko? I am in support of Haye, because teh division needs life breathed in in desperately, but I disapprove of the way he is conducting himself to the brothers, I mean, Wlad's basically giving him an undeserved shot, so he should be grateful.

Hey, I'm unable to log on to Playerhistory - it says my account has been disabled, so that's a bugger. Anyway, I had a look through Hugman's PFA book and found that he played for Wimbledon in the FL and have included that in the article. This and this also look quite promising as sources to include. Merry crimbo to you too, make sure you have fun on your travels. Mattythewhite (talk) 11:14, 24 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Jimbo

An anon user has changed Oli's appearance/goals data for Grays from 111 (21) to the frankly implausible 111 (47). Normally I'd just revert, but I noticed that neither set of data even remotely matches Soccerbase, which gives 86 (12). This seems to be because Soccerbase has no data for Grays for season 04/05. Are you able to confirm what his correct Grays stats should be.....?

Cheers!! -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 18:49, 4 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia!

I hope not to seem unfriendly or make you feel unwelcome, but I noticed your username, and I am concerned that it might not meet Wikipedia's username policy for the following reason: Can be interpreted as a claim that you are Jimmy Wales online - undue assertion of authority. After you look over that policy, could we discuss that concern here?

I'd appreciate learning your own views, for instance your reasons for wanting this particular name, and what alternative username you might accept that avoids raising this concern.

You have several options freely available to you:

Deletion of the Up the U's page

Please explain why this is a 'non-notable football chant'. It has been sung by fans of Colchester United for years and has even been recorded and released by artists who are fans of the club (and backed up by members of the football team itself). If you can explain your objection to this article, then I can edit it and improve the article.

I have raised this question on the Up the U's talk page 3 days ago and have not recieved a reply. If I do not recieve a reply by tomorrow, I'll remove your request to delete the page. DarthJoeyJoJo (talk) 09:28, 16 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
