winning like never before. decoys. mouse traps. chicken wings. lollie pops. shepperds. the crusher. grapples. big league. In 1935 The Dragon Slayers as they were known defeated Canterbury bulldogs 91-6, which is still the biggest win in the Club's History. In 1907, the St George district had a club in the Sydney rugby union competition. Interestingly, the team's area was referred to as the 'Illawarra suburbs'. A resolution to form a St George rugby league club was made at a local meeting held in early 1908, but the movement faltered and collapsed. St George, wearing the district colours of red and white, played in the NSWRL's Third Grade competition in 1910, and formed a President's Cup team in 1911. References were found at the time to district teams being called 'The Saints'.the perfect 11

I think that's the fight most people want to see. Cotto is brutal and if he managed to open Mayweather's brilliant defence up he would cause huge problems for him. Not sure it'd be the greatest of fights, but it'd be an intriguing one.

Cotto v Margarito will be a superb fight on July 26th, don't miss that one!

Watched the Hatton fight at the weekend and enjoyed it. Hatton controlled the entire fight and threw some great punches. Fair play to Lascano who did remarkably well to stay the distance. Fancy Hatton to get better after this fight next time out.

So Floyd Mayweather announces his retirement from boxing.

However you feel about Floyd, and it hurt me when he beat Ricky the way he did, you can't knock his achievements in the sport and how good he was. I now feel privileged to have been present for his last performance in the ring.

On the one hand I'm gutted that Ricky won't get a chance to avenge his defeat, but on the other I'm kind of glad as I always feared the worst again anyway in any potential rematch.

Here's to Floyd, a great champion!

Hmmm, seems a strange one. The dream dies for so many boxers like De La Hoya, Hatton and Cotto who would've loved a(nother) crack at Floyd. I must admit, I'm a bit disappointed I think he's got several good fights in him and I was personally desperate to see PBF v Cotto. Then again, he's announced he's retirement before, so you never know. Although his statements seem pretty final, this time.

You can't knock his achievements though. Top quality boxer and arguably the best defensive boxer ever.
