MIKE TYSON on the street in front of the gym he trained at under Cus D’ Amato, Teddy Atlas and Kevin Rooney in Catskill, New York this past November, talking about his mentor (Cus) @mariolopezviva @AntonioTarver @HammerinHank_L @bigdaddybunce

"This is Ted he is a 96 year old WW2 veteran. He came into my pub today for his lunch. I couldn't help but notice his medals I just had to go and ask him about his life and say thank you for his service to our country. He became really overwhelmed and cried. He said 'thank you young man no one cares about what I have to say anymore.' I told him that I'm sure there are so many people that do. Can we all please like and share this post and show him just how many of do care about our veterans and prove to Ted he's not forgotten. I will show him this post when he comes back for his dinner next week." Credit - animal discovery

🚨🇬🇧THE MASK SLIPS: RUPERT LOWE’S 2-MINUTE ULTIMATUM TO ZARAH SULTANA Westminster just witnessed a confrontation that the mainstream media is already trying to "reframe." Standing in a stunned House of Commons, Rupert Lowe held up the Sovereignty and Allegiance Act and issued a chilling warning that has sent shockwaves across the country. Locking eyes with Zarah Sultana, Lowe didn’t hold back. He launched a forensic attack on what he described as "dual loyalties" within the heart of Government, claiming to have evidence of foreign interests compromising British national security. “Loyalty to this country is not optional; it is your primary duty,” Lowe declared over the erupting chaos of the chamber. “If you cannot put the British flag before your own agenda, you have no place in this House.” The live feed captured the moment the chamber descended into absolute turmoil as Lowe began naming those he believes are betraying the public trust. While the "Westminster Bubble" tries to downplay this as a stunt, the footage is already breaking the internet. Is this the start of the political reckoning the British public has been waiting for?

@20thCentBoxIMM I was there for that very moving and they didn't let go of each other through out proud to have been there for Johnny a Welsh hero

The classy Lupe Pintor, on February 11, 2002, with Dick Owen, at the dedication of the Johnny Owen statue in Merthyr, Wales, UK. From Welsh Warriors: The long awaited tribute to one of Wales greatest ever boxers, Johnny Owen was unveiled today by a friend of the Owen family. The friend was Lupe Pintor, the man who threw the fateful punch that ultimately led to the untimely death of the young Welshman. The events of 22 years ago affected forever the lives of everyone who knew the young man from the valleys town so steeped in boxing history, Merthyr Tydfil. Lupe had only met Johnny's father once since the terrible tragedy unfolded back in 1980; he had never met Mrs. Owen or Johnny's 4 brothers and 3 sisters. Invited by Dick Owen (Johnny's Dad) to unveil the statue, during his visit to Mexico in the summer, Lupe readily accepted the honour and visited the Owen household, Friday night (Nov. 1st), to a welcome that the anti-boxing brigade would never understand. Of course, there were tears and sadness in knowing what had brought them together. But most of all there was compassion. Johnny's family have never held Lupe responsible for what happened, quite simply it was an accident. Lupe met each of the brothers and sisters with a handshake and hugged them as he cried. A gentle and sincere man, he explained - through an interpreter - "I am sorry for what happened, I did not wish him [Johnny] harm. It was a sporting accident, sport is beautiful. I was just doing what I knew best, as Johnny was. He was a great warrior. This is a difficult moment for all of us, difficult because it is remembering what once happened in a very different situation". His feelings were reciprocated as he was told by one of Johnny's brothers, "Please don't cry, it was an accident. You have come all this way to honour my brother and we thank you. Tomorrow we shall celebrate John's life and achievements together; John would be proud". Firstly, (Saturday 2nd) a memorial service was held at High St. Chapel where Rev. David Protheroe said of Johnny, "He had a vision, a goal. He persevered and finally he achieved. Some may say, and I'm sure Lupe Pintor would agree, that Johnny did win a fight. He did win a world championship to the people of Merthyr. He won our hearts and there is no bigger prize than to win the hearts of your community". After the service everyone walked the short distance to the location of the statue, sharing their stories of Johnny as they went. Reflecting Johnny's patriotism the statue of the former Welsh, British, Commonwealth & European champion stood resplendent draped in a Welsh flag. Lupe was to have unveiled the statue solely, but when the time came he beckoned Dick Owen to him and together they proudly revealed a statue that is a fitting tribute to the 'great warrior'. The figure bears a striking resemblance to its subject and is fine in every detail; down to the leek that Johnny was given by an old lady, and wore taped to his sock for every fight. Fittingly, the unveiling ceremony was concluded with a rousing rendition of the Welsh national anthem. As Lupe and his wife, Virginia, enjoyed Sunday lunch with the Owen family, the following day, Dick said of Lupe, "He is a wonderful man. He had nothing to do with John's death. There was a chink in John's armour and that is all there is to it". The Mexican former world champ, replied, "I am so glad I came here. I feel that Johnny's spirit has always been with me. We had a great fight; it was a gentleman's fight. I don't know what the decision would have been had the fight gone to the end. But, I would have respected the decision if it had gone to Johnny because it was a gentleman's fight". Lupe spoke of his great respect for the Owen family and cheekily added, "I wish to become an honorary Welshman, maybe I can come to Merthyr to live and then they will put up a statue of me! A day for boxing to be proud. (After Johnny's death it was revealed that he had an abnormally thin skull, the terrible accident which befell him could have happened at any time).

In 2000, Lucy Lowe was sixteen years old. She had been groomed and repeatedly raped by a Pakistani man since the age of thirteen, and by that time had already given birth to a child fathered by her abuser. Lucy was burned alive in her own home. Her mother, Eileen, and her sister, Sarah, were also murdered in the fire. The man who set the house alight was Lucy's abuser, a taxi driver, Azhar Ali Mehmood. The violence did not end with her death. In the years that followed, grooming gangs used Lucy Lowe's murder as a warning to other girls, telling them, "Look what happened to Lucy." - @celina101010

STARMER LOSES CONTROL AS MIGRANT HOTEL ATTACKS EXPAND TO 8 MORE CITIES – POLICE OVERWHELMED IN TOTAL CHAOS! Britain has erupted into full-scale mayhem as violent protests against migrant hotels exploded across eight cities last night – Birmingham, Manchester, Newcastle, Leeds and four others turned into battlegrounds with furious crowds besieging asylum accommodations, smashing windows, hurling bricks and bottles, and chanting “Protect our children”! Police were completely overwhelmed, officers injured and hospitalised as riot squads struggled for hours to regain control in the longest and most ferocious clashes ever seen. Birmingham's Holiday Inn Express on Stratford Road – housing 230 asylum seekers – became ground zero at 10:47 p.m., where a small local protest ballooned to 300 raging residents before bricks rained through windows and the standoff dragged into the early morning. In Leeds, over 400 furious locals surrounded the Britannia Hotel on Wellington Street by 11:30 p.m., smashing the entrance, tearing down barriers and disrupting traffic – mounted police finally dispersed the mob after sustained violence and soaring arrests. Starmer's regime is in utter freefall – his open-door policies have unleashed a national crisis of rage, with communities pushed to breaking point while police are stretched to the limit. The unrest is spreading like wildfire, public fury is boiling over, and the Prime Minister's grip on the country is crumbling before our eyes!

🚨 Muslim armies are mobilising in the UK 🇬🇧 Footage shows groups of muslims dressed in all black marching through the streets of Crewe ⚠️ Reports suggest the group is called "The religion of peace and light." Idk about you, but it seems ominous❗️

🚨🚨BREAKING: Muslims are taking to social media, calling for a BAN on dogs in the UK. Apparently, having a dog is considered disrespectful to Islam. What’s your message to the dog haters?
