LondonRingRules Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 --- On my stupid iPhone, so the link shall have to suffice for now, but he talks of 3rd world difficulties larded westerners are unfamiliar with, like the typhoon that killed 10,000 and wiped out villages wholesale. Very intimidating stuff for a 4th grade education speaking in a non native tongue to such a credentialed crowd...

Ton Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 Re: Senator Manny Speaks at Oxford This isn't really boxing related is it? ;-) Might start a thread on George Foreman grill sales :haha: Fair play to Manny for standing and delivering a speech infront of those people though. I actually visited Oxford just the other month. A beautiful little city, with such heritage and history. It's all very grand and I imagine it really feels privileged to get to be educated in those unique and beautiful buildings. My Uni life in Preston was mainly sacking off lecturers and meeting my mate in one of the on campus pubs and getting boozy! :haha: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And of course the usual political platitudes thanking everyone including God:whistle: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
