Im scappoosejohns daughter and cant help but become a member of this pretty cool site. So thank you for having me.
I grew up watching the fights with my Dad and have been taught how to throw a punch or two. Ive loved every minute of it. Boxing has brought us together at times and I've grown quite fond of the sport. I dont know too much about it but like it a lot.
When my dad was in the hospital, my brother had gotten him a little laptop. I knew that in time he would be on this site. On one visit I saw him get on here and put in his vote for the Pacquaio fight. There wasnt much I could do to communicate with my dad when he was in the hospital and I was at home, so when I got home that day I looked up this site and started reading. I saw the posts my brother and dad had made about his conditions and everybody's replies. I was so touched by how many friends my dad has here and how caring, hopeful, positive, and supportive everyone is. I want to say thank you so much and you all are a great bunch. I know my dad really likes this site a lot, and all of you.
Im here to get more info and updates etc on this great sport, be amused and entertained by polls, topics, and discussions, and be even a bit more closer to my dad... since I live in another state.
To let you all know Our dad had to be admitted to the hospital again today. So again Dad begins another round of this fight. Thanks to all for your continued thought and prayers.
Thanks again. ...And of course for our Thanksgiving evening event we all gathered around the tv and watched the Pacquaio-Cotto fight. It was great being able to watch yet another great fight with my dad and the family. So glad he's home!!
Thank you, from scappoosejohns daughter.

I have to say that I was touched by this. I think it's a beautiful thing to see and hear something that I love so much can help loved ones through a trying time. That's just amazing to me to read. And like everybody else said, welcome.
Let me know

pretty cool stuff. as a father it's gotta feel great to have your daughter enjoy in on your passion. maybe not the same, but my 5 year old daughter watches boxing with me (atleast part of it till she get's bored, lol) and she takes mma along with my wife. i'm a violent guy and my women need to be able to defend themselves, lol j/k. anyways, welcome to the board. hope you guys have a good holiday.vikingprincess wrote:XKawN wrote:how old are you, VK???

Little Floyd said Novocaine was injected into both of his hands before the bout. Novocaine is an analgesic, which is illegal in WBC title bouts.
