15-12 Selby. All set-up for a storming Ronnie comeback. My bet is O'Sullivan winning a deciding frame 18-17.

I'm glad O'Sullivan lost. I can't stand him. I think I'm the only Englishman who feels this way!

He has been saying for years that he's fell out with the sport and he doesn't enjoy it, then when the Championships come along, low and behold, he plays. Either quit or shut the fuck up about it.

Jesus, how much does one guy have to go through?
He's got Crohn's, beat testicular cancer and now has lung cancer?!
All the best to him, hope he beats this too.

Talk about being dealt a shit hand. To beat 1 type then diagnosed with another, poor guy, respect to him for battling it. All the best to him.

My heart sank seeing the news about Ali Carter. This disease is the curse of the 20th/21st century. The resources of the world should be invested to eradicate it. Best of luck Ali.

Agreed mate, we send billions to Africa to help people that have to walk 20 miles a day to get clean water when we can donate it to better causes by just telling them to move closer.
Seen so many people lose their lives to this horrible disease that I would much rather donate to that than nearly anything else.
P.s I don't mean to sound harsh towards other charities, they are good as well. I'm all for helping people but this disease is a cunt and needs to fuck off and dissapear for good.

I'm hooked on sweet science of boxing ... even when I get beaten up Ronnie O'Sullivan explains why sparring sessions in the boxing ring have boosted his feelings of well-being. By Eurosport 3 hours ago Ronnie O'Sullivan In penning his latest blog, Ronnie explains why he loves boxing so much. He tells Eurosport's Desmond Kane about his training regime ahead of his bid to win a sixth world snooker title in Sheffield later this month, and why breaking his foot led to him getting the gloves on in the ring. He also writes about the importance of eating well to boost his self-esteem.
Since breaking the foot before the UK Championship in December, I've had to use the gym. I was gutted at the time. The thought of not running was killing my spirits.
I'd worked so hard to get fit. Last August, I was bloated and overweight, feeling really bad about my appearance and self-esteem. It took me two months of solid training afterwards to get some sort of base fitness under my belt. By the time I went to Chengdu in China to play in the International Championship in October, I was feeling really good. I was even training twice a day in Chengdu just to break the boredom up between matches.
I turned Chengdu into a training camp, and the snooker became secondary to me on that trip. I didn't want to come back from Chengdu having not got something from the trip. I got something from it even though I lost to Mark Williams in the last eight - I came home feeling very fit and running really well.
I've always loved the feeling of working to exhaustion when I'm training. Running doesn't always allow that as it's an impact sport. There is lots of pounding on the joints that makes it hard to run hard every day, but with the cross trainer and the gym it allowed me to use different muscle groups and different types of training which meant I could really push myself hard on a regular basis.
I kind of got into working out on the cross trainer, which was great for the heart and lungs, and good for my cardio, which for me is always essential to have when being fit. I'm not a muscles type of trainer or lifting weights - I much prefer the athletic side of training. The broken foot was a nightmare. The timing was not good, not that there's a good time to break your foot, but I was looking forward to the cross country season - that's the type of running I like to do.
Boxing has been a terrific alternative. The gym I train in has a boxing ring in there. I've never boxed before so I was kind of cautious of getting in the ring, but some of the lads in there assured me I would be fine........(more) uk.eurosport.yahoo.com/blogs/ronnie-osullivan/i-m-hooked-on-the-sweet-science-of-boxing--even-when-i-get-beaten-up-111628231.html

Love Ronnie but he's not the brightest bulb in the box

Comfortably the hardest sport technically in my humble opinion. A lot of people disagree when I say that though
