      Platitude on raising a child: You will never make the same mistakes with your child as your parents made with you. You'll make all your own mistakes.

      Maybe after having it so hard, Depression and War, they couldn't bear to bring that pain to their own children, so they over-protected them.

      JUST A MAYBE.

        - - NPR released a study showing the declining birth rates of Ukrainians already low going lower. Suspect similar results with Russians as they are part of the same larger genealogic family pool.

        Even China seems to be worried about their declining birth rates initiated originally because of over population, now vontarily by the people.

        Western nations and Civilization in freefall?

          What this nation did is forget to keep its dukes up, well actually we refuse to anymore. What we do now is show our sword hand so enemies can see it is empty. Then we sell them some land. They think of it as easy tribute, or at least i do.

          On boxing, the man who wrote the letter here writes good letters but should have sai d25 years.

              Western nations been going bankrupt of late, so need a punch dummy to collectivize resources in order to pull off regime change where nuclear weapons will be in danger of being either used, or off loaded to n'er do well highest bidders.

              We get blasted, but our overseers safe with riches beyond the pale.

                I would think the war would take its toll on both countries. How many Russian men who would be potential boxing greats have lost their lives or limbs in combat this past year? How many were drafted into the military, hundreds of thousands? Russians also tend to hang around too long in the amateurs before turning pro.

                  Russia's economy is going to collapse; only fighters who leave Russia for the west will be able to find the necessary economic structure amd infrastructure to pursue a professional career.

                  They threw away their republic and went the (self proclaimed) 'great man' route. They made their bed now they get to die in it.

                  America is heading down the sane rabbit hole always looking for one man to solve all their problems. These 'great men' are in the process of teaching Americans to give up on, and even disdain, their republic.

                  We are rapidly becoming third world peasants as self proclaimed great men teach us how to chant hate and disrupt elections.

                  Thank God for Sleepy Joe *****. He is showing us that America can run just fine, even be great, without a King Donald or King Ron to lead us.

                  But I fear it's too late, our republic began its decline into the abyss on Janurary 6th 2021 and will likely never recover.

                  We lost faith in ourselves and now want a great man's c-ock to suck so we can feel safe.

                  Just my personal opinion. LOL

                    Our problems and solutions don’t rest with one man. Our unfortunate dilemma is also part of our strength—a two party system that can’t get out of its own way. Can’t agree on anything which bottlenecks progress and stifles growth. Today we have more agendas than ever. No one believes in a win-win outcome, it’s all a zero sum game. Every aspect of our lives are divided. Even boxing. Look at NSB, every rivalry is an us-against-them battle of attrition, tribal warfare; Mayweather vs Pacquiao, Fury vs Wilder, PBC loyalists versus fighters under other promoters, Showtime vs DAZN.

                    Not to say sports rivalries aren’t divisive by nature, but when the fight was over we all went back to our normal lives, be it Ali vs Frazier, Holmes vs Cooney, Cowboys vs Steelers, Yankees vs Dodgers, etc. We were all Americans.

                      - - You making nonsensical Russian claims, not I.

                      The US population what with legal ********s went into dead in the water, especially severe re the black population, uncountable millions of ********s.

                      Some of the newer gens seem to have reversed that from what I see in the media and my neighborhood, but it's the Latinos, primarily Mexicans both legal citizens and illegals who have insanely high birth rates that are closing in on being the plurality in my hometown, maybe 10 yrs away from the majority.

                      Of course, the only true majority in the world are women. We poor men ain't got a chance
