@uscfan981 No British bulldog????? Scandalous!!!! 😂😂😂

@AdamsBoxingShow Guys like Naz & Eubank Sr were hated by a high majority of UK fans while they were world champs because of their arrogance…I personally loved both, not over the Hitman Hearns though 🥊😉😂

[Matt Wride @WrideMatt]

@AdamsBoxingShow He wasn’t well liked because he was too good and too confident.
UK fans go for humble people, people’s champion type athlete. Carl Lewis was ahead of his time 💨 And he knew it 😉

[Matt Wride @WrideMatt]

@AdamsBoxingShow Carl Lewis was a superstar over here after the 84 & 88 Olympics.
I’m not gonna say he was well liked but EVERYONE knew him.
100, 200, long jump, relay, beast!!!!

[Matt Wride @WrideMatt]

@AdamsBoxingShow I remember Tyson winning title when I was 6, I remember MJ winning slam dunk contest as youngster too but best of the time for me was Spud Webb winning dunk contest. Blew our minds as kids over here!!!!

Carl Lewis was a huge 🇺🇸 star in UK during 1980s too

@curtiswoodhous8 💯

@AdamsBoxingShow He was 18…on the undercard of Leonzer Barber v Nicky Piper 🥊🥊🥊

[Matt Wride @WrideMatt]

@AdamsBoxingShow Don’t know who was better, but in terms of pure excitement Naz up a lot higher. Carried KO power in each hand and could turn lights out on tough men.
I watched Naz box in the flesh when he was fighting at 118lbs, he couldn’t have been older than 19. Lightening quick crazy power

@theRealEnzoMac Robin Reid says Froch is better than Calzaghe and he lost to them both.
Most experts and arm chair pundits disagree with him but he fought them both 🤷‍♂️

[Matt Wride @WrideMatt]

@afowler06 I was at this fight, brutal. Great undercard as well 🥊🥊🥊
I sat by Kovalev bodyguards, wow 😮 Not a group to mess with, units!!!!

@thatway255 @BoxingShrew I’ll pray for you brother 🙏

[Matt Wride @WrideMatt]

@thatway255 @BoxingShrew God the Father, God the Son, God the Holy Spirit….Jesus is the son, therefore Jesus is, well you get it 😉

🔥🚨LATEST: This singer said these record execs told him that he couldn’t mention the name Jesus if they signed him and he put the camera on them and responded by singing gospel.

If I'm honest this has been a hard season for me lately. I've been struggling with trusting God's timing. I was reminded when reading Psalm 37 today that I am to be still before Yahweh and wait patiently. That Yahweh is good to those who wait for him and seek him, and it is good to wait quietly for God’s salvation (Lam. 3:25–26). This quiet waiting involves hoping in God’s word while the soul waits more intensely than watchmen awaiting morning (Psalm 130:5–6).

I was reminded that prior to preaching to thousands, for a season Peter went back to fishing after thinking he failed Jesus. That Paul sat in prison cells, Lazarus lay in a tomb, Jonah prayed in the belly of a fish, Hannah wept on the steps of the tabernacle, Joseph was locked in the captivity, and Moses stood in the fields of Median herding sheep. All before God made moves in his timing.

Times of waiting, while hard, remind us of the confidence we should have in God’s timing and character. When direction seems slow in coming, we're called to wait for it, assured it will come when the time is ready (Hab. 2:3). Yahweh himself waits to be gracious and show mercy, and those who wait for him are blessed, for he is a God of justice (Isa. 30:18). Rather than taking matters into their own hands, like I often am tempted to do, we are instructed not to repay evil but to wait for the Lord, who will deliver us (Prov 20:22).

Hoping for what is unseen involves waiting with patience (Romans 8:25), and through the Spirit and faith, believers eagerly wait for the hope of righteousness (Galatians 5:5). Waiting involves expectancy and hope regarding events and contingencies still in the future, it's the outworking of a spiritual posture directed at trusting God’s promises and timing rather than our own understanding.

Knowing all of this, writing here on X doesn't make my season of needing to wait any easier, but the consistent, inspired, inerrant testimony of scripture nonetheless gives me something solid to trust in. I am fickle, impatient, and finite. God is trustworthy, forbearing, and infinite. And his timing is right even if I don't know how or when things will happen.

🚨🇬🇧BREAKING: UK Police just arrested a crying 5-year-old boy while taking away his father.

Starmer's police dragged the terrified child into a car, then pepper-sprayed and the father and the man filming everything.

What the hell is happening in Britain?
