Seems a lovely person, big smile but a streak of toughness. From a sporting perspective, I reckon others have achieved more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Problem is people have lost the art of debating without reacting. Anyways Emma Radacanu gets it for me. 19 years had the courage and character to bounce back from digs and critics after Wimbledon, to go to NY and win the US open. The weight and expectation she had on her shoulders and triumphed. Wonderful young woman with an incredible sporting personality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think if you get to any final and play as well as she did all tournament there’s a level of expectation, and even if there wasn’t her mentality of expectation would have been heavy and she wasn’t phased.

We have waited forty odd years for a British woman to get one. One or two I said. Irrespective of what's gone before, if she wants to be judged on a par with her peers, then those who have achieved more this year (and previous years) should be more worthy. I'd have sterling above her- Rudy's list shows his success. All that said, as it's a public vote now, she will have a great chance. The thing as a whole is all a bit bollocks though, particularly with such a short list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Escobarp Posted December 13, 2021 Share Posted December 13, 2021 Anyway fury shouldn’t win because of some his statements in the past which are outdated and have no place in society. but it’s irrelevant really as he will never win it even without saying those things because he’s a gypsy. But that’s ok. Apparently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swimmers are a different breed, serious serious weirdos. Google Peatys diet then look at his physique, it defies logic. It shouldn’t work but it does. The training and dedication they put into training is on a par with cyclists. Freaks. As much as I love Fury, one fight a year boxers just don’t do it for me, I know the training is different for HW’s but if Canelo Alvarez was called Craig Atkinson from Barnsley he would have walked this. 3 fights 3 wins this year so hopefully he wins the international award. Sterling I think has another level that he doesn’t quite hit, Foden was better than him last season and again this season consistently. But yeah Radacanu or Peaty for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter Winchester White Posted December 13, 2021 Site Supporter Share Posted December 13, 2021 I'd like Fury to win it just in case he turned up and smashed the shitty trophy over someone's bonce in an alcohol fuelled rage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
