Social Trump threatens Bruce Springsteen

He wrote it on a napkin at a restaurant, it had a meaning we can relate to, and even though they're one of my favorite bands there just had to be a comeback song instead of some introspection.
Great stuff. I like boxing. I watch it hours on end. My favorite is this one. He really put his heart into it. Amazing stuff. My #1 fight of all time.

 
Can Trump threaten Bon Jovi as well? Because fuck those guys. ;)

great, painful fight to watch being as I love Alexis and those fights took so much out of him. I still don't see how people put some other fights of the 80's over the first one, yes, there were many but I can't think of any that had two great champs at the top of their game who went to war like that for almost 15 rounds for the first one. The second one wasn't as good but was still a firefight. Truth was, probably both guys were finished after their two fights. Pryor only fought a few more times himself.

If I could have gotten his corner..........

either way, I believe Alexis goes down in history as the greater, more accomplished fighter, he was just a tad too old and a tad too slow and and small. Reverse the situation and Pryor wouldn't have finished the fight himself. A guy who suffered flash knockdowns all the time? I still really don't know how he took Alexis' big shots, probably the hardest he was ever hit even if it was by a guy who originally was a 126 pounder. Alexis starched bigger men like Rooney and afterwards, Billy costello, his power was still there. Pryor was so amped up maybe that's why, of course some people insist the bottle helped him but I don't think there's a drug in the world that'll help you take a punch.
 
I've never been a fan of Springsteen, but he's a lot more original than BJ.
Bon Jovi had some ok tunes but I was never a fan either. Bruce was the real deal, Bon Jovi was kinda a pop artist. Probably a nice fella, i wouldn't know, but he never seemed authentic artistically. As rich as Bruce is and as much as he has sold out, there have been times when he showed what he was made of, risked things financially and didn't always sell out. Unfortunately, he seemed to like selling out a little too much for some fans. I couldn't afford to see him the last time, literally couldn't afford even 200 dollar scalped tickets, not with car problems at the time, yet I did make an effort at the last minute, and it ain't because i even like live shows. I just don't know how many more times Bruce will be around and I kicked myself for missing Prince the last couple times he was here.
 
@mozfonky Yep. Killed them both. Two HOF fighters. Punched their guts out. They were pissing blood.
i'll always wonder what would have happened had Richard Steele not stopped the action when Alexis had Pryor in the corner. I always hated richard steele because he seemed to play favorites and do shit like that all the time. Like in the Hagler Hearns fight, trying to get the fight stopped via cut and not letting hagler fight inside even though they weren't clinched up. Glad that fuck retired, the fans hated him.
 
we in the middle of WW3 yet we talking about beef ,
 
Aaron Pryor was a master.
he was but generally too wreckless and a daredevil, that's not the sport to take stupid shots and lose your head. There's no way a dujuan Johnson or an Akio Kameda should be putting a great fighter down like that, he had several moments like that and he just seemed careless. It's not like he had a great chin, he didn't. Bobby Joe Young somehow put him down with a punch to his shoulder.

Nah, Pryor won it. No Drugs. They were both coked up.

Some people still think pryor was boosted. I don't personally think it made a difference, thought it was sour grapes from the fans who wanted Alexis to win but that talk will never die all because of that crooked corner man. Basically ruined Aaron's best moment.
