He kept the world club cup (and was seemingly allowed to)
He kept a world club cup winners medal
FIFA agreed to allow him to move fixtures to where he deems fit
And the special peace prize, for a very, very special man.
All would have made him a very wealthy man alone. Not including the Princes and Sheiks that would have vested interests in trying to fix the matches and the ticket prices.
He would tell them they could call it cum-in-my-mouth-and-listen-to-me-gargle-it ball if he wanted.

They probably need a lot of ducks to line up in a row. But the current privacy wave and the push for digital sovereignty in Europe might help.

11·8 days agoWhat or why would I refute anything you say? It’s obvious that you don’t really understand boxing, it’s level of corruption and how that exhibition was played out. You have already staggered with attempts to put words in my mouth/text twice that I didn’t mention anything even close to. I have no interest in going any further with somebody showing and starting with those traits.
As I said, you continue thinking what you like, but don’t contaminate other people’s thoughts with your nonsense.

Tyson reportedly interested in Turki Alalshikh’s offer, never got a reply from Jake Paul.

3·8 days agoAs the sub states - It is just mildly infuriating. But to reply to that - I don’t want to get into a discussion about this, so I probably will just leave it here.
The States that governing bodies oversaw his fights are far more lenient than other places, CSAC, TDLR (Tyson fight his licence was expired and renewed in record time), OSAC and FSBC. Had he not the money and followers, most, or not one of his ‘fights’ would ever have gone ahead.
Other than the people whose jobs require it, I have never spoken to or heard a person that was involved in or heavily fanatical about boxing dare refer to him as a boxer. It is only the clueless ‘casual’ fans, his youtube followers, the marketers and the people that work for them. JFH exhibition bouts were called exactly that, and are not to be confused with his professional career. Jake Paul has only ever had exhibition fights afaik. There is so much more to look at and talk about, but money talks. I just feel extremely sorry for all of the pro boxers that will never get a fair ranking despite being able to (without question) run rings around him without having to train too hard for the fight.
He is a professional exhibitionist or a professional exhibition fighter at best.
I couldn’t name one other single person who has fought most of their professional career against basketballers, UFC, retirees and other non professional boxers that are allowed to call themselves ‘professional boxers’. It brings the already struggling sport into further disrepute. The fixing has now gone mainstream. The Netflix goons talking about the good it’s doing for boxing when it is doing the opposite…
Okay, okay… I am starting to get a little more into this ‘mildly infuriating’ topic than planned. I will leave it there, with plenty more that could be said.

Technology@lemmy.world•Swiss government urges people to ditch Microsoft 365 and others due to lack of proper encryptionEnglish
171·8 days agoWindscribe are a bit late to the game -https://x.com/windscribecom/status/1995619967996494334
They are twittering today quoting an article that was published 3+ months ago.
Proton is moving out of Switzerland because of their new surveillance laws. So much for Switzerland being some bastion of privacy huh? That makes Canada a better place for a VPN. Stop drinking the marketing koolaid.
Judging by the direction that Switzerland seems to be going, I am guessing (I could be wayyyy wrong) that Swiss privacy companies are going to be still effective for people outside of Switzerland, soon to be completely free from US big tech spying. Canada are in the 5 eyes, whereas Switzerland aren’t even mentioned in the 14 eyes.
As for Canada being a better place for the Privacy or a VPN, I think Windscribe need to stop drinking their own nonsense.

74·8 days agoWhat’s happening in Switzerland? Flipping and flopping for the past year. I welcome this latest news, and the similar news yesterday, hopefully it is infectious to the rest of Europe but it completely contradicts things that have been proposed for the last few months, then the sudden change. I wonder did Trump push too hard:
May 14 2025 - Proposed Swiss surveillance law ‘identical to Russia’
June 13 2025 - “A war against online anonymity” – why Switzerland wants to change its surveillance law and what’s at stake
September 11 2025 - Swiss government looks to undercut privacy tech, stoking fears of mass surveillance
November 15 2025 - Switzerland plans surveillance worse than US
November 27 2025 - Switzerland: Data Protection Officers Recommend Broad Cloud Ban for Authorities

8·9 days ago-
I guess a wikipedia volunteer decided to classify him as that, and maybe another agreed.
-
No idea. I guess it would entail trying to prove that he setup, paid and that the fights were mostly scripted.
He has only has 13 fights, hopefully the Joshua fight will finally show him up. ‘win’ or lose.

3·17 days agoOne thing we should all be campaigning for, regardless of not wanting it to go through, is that,
If it is to go through, then NOBODY should be exempt from having their devices scanned.
We will see how many politicians are willing to push it through then. I’m willing to bet that many of them will do a U-turn when they think that their own devices and emails etc… Will be scanned.

24·17 days agoThat works better if the ‘control’ applies to everyone.
Under this proposal, all politicians (the people needed to pass this proposal through law) are exempt from having their devices scanned.
In other words no control or monitoring over the rich and powerful, who are able to set up paedophile rings more efficiently and privately with their own havens or islands than any normal person.

He was about 22 at the time. I think it’s deemed okay depending on how famous you are. /S
Lori Maddox and all of her buddies were having sex with half of the bands from the 1970’s (there was no law back then I believe) Led Zeppelin, David Bowie, the rolling stones and so on. They were only 13. All written about I believe, some have since been redacted.
But by the time Kiedis was writing songs about having sex with school kids, and by the time he was having sex with school kids, I think it was illegal.
