Yes but boxing is nothing like street fight and thus does not fulfill the role you said you want it to...?

I have considered MMA as much for fitness as anything else but while I'm a big guy and can handle myself I would get annihilated by proper heavyweight fighters.

I am well aware of what boxing is, I am not aiming for it to be like street fights, I in actual fact despise street fights as you don't know what you are getting into... especially if you are drunk. I prefer boxing, I have done it before and I can do it again

Fair enough

I'm a boxing fan and a fan of MMA - in fact I like watching almost any combat sport.

I personally love every sport that brings out pain and blood from people... hence why I prefer the KHL to the NHL for instance, the KHL has more fights that are harder than the NHL (at least that is how I feel about it).

There is just something about blood and pain that I enjoy... that said, I prefer that it is in a regulated environment so no one dies, I don't want to kill someone and I don't want someone to kill me.

So's my brother. And I might get to go with him.
For me it's Tai Kwon Do, and I've just had confirmation that I have tickets for Paralympic Judo and basketball.

I'm small and pathetically weak so I'd get annihilated by almost everyone in any kind of half-fight

To be honest, I don't see the need for the union just like I don't see the need for Corsica to be part of France.

Let Scotland go, kick Wales out and make Ireland united with those that are anti-Irish union coming to live here. England can be a great power once more

nah, keep wales. We've had for a thousand odd years, we get attached to things And technically its a part of the Kingdom of England, assuming you'd go back to the pre-union borders

I just don't like Wales so I wouldn't want Wales in any form of union that I am in

Just think of it as extra farmland!

Most Welsh people are against sovereignty for 3 million poor Europeans (i.e. us). In practical terms it couldn't work but that doesn't mean that we shouldn't be a full federal partner. Newfoundland is a poor part of Canada yet it has the same rights as Ontario or Alberta which are wealthy. Give and take.

If I were to do that, I'd have to remove the people... truth be told, the welsh get on my nerves... especially the one I met on a night out that I now see everywhere

In principal i do agree with federalism however in practice i see the Welsh government wasting resources on teaching children to speak a language that is unlikely to be spoken outside a 100 mile radius whilst the number of people speaking Spanish and French far exceeds that of Wales. Because of this, i now only support devolution of taxation and infrastructure (transport and energy), the important things should be left to the wise Westminster government.
