Past or Present, Who IRRITATES You in Boxing???...However LOOSELY They're Affiliated w/the Sport, Who IRKS the Shit Out of You On SIGHT or Even SOUND of Their Voice???...WHY???... Hate's a STRONG Word, But This Guy Irritates THElivingSHIT Out of REED... Ray Flores... Has an Overbearing Pop-Top 40, Radio Disc Jockey Voice, ala, Mauro Renalo, But @ Least Renalo is a Bit GOOFY and Makes Attempts @ Humor... The Idea of Laughter or Being Funny NEVER Entered Flores' Mind...And He Looks a Bit GREMLINish Also... His Name is Probably Actually "REY" Instead of "RAY" Also, But Whatever...Don't Wish Death, Illness or Bodily Harm on Dude, but he INSTANTLY Irritates REED More Than Any Current Boxing Figure... Who Tickles YOUR Pickle in That Way???... REED
David Diamante is a Spanish cat I believe, I don't think he's white. And he seems like a good, humble dude who loves the sport. I don't have a problem with him.
REED Wasn't Sure if Doub was Referring to LZ Granderson or Diamante... agREED on Diamante Being a GOOD Dude... He was in Dallas for the Maurice Hooker-Jose Ramirez Unification and was a Very Normal, Unassuming, Approachable Dude Doing What he Looooves, Who Just Sooooooooooo Happens to Have Nearly 6' Worth of Dreds Dangling from His Head... REED
In irritated by quitters like keith Walters I had tickets to his fight with lomachenko and just when it was starting to get interesting he packed it in
Eddie Hearn The McGuigans Frank Moloney Smarm, lying, cheating, bullshit merchants..........McGuigans son Shane is like Norman Mailer......he hangs around with fighters, lives off them, like mold on bread.......he started the shit about having trainers named alongside fighters by the Emcees during the introductions. He also showers himself with praise during the interviews afterwards. He's broken with every major fighter he has ever had cos he's a total cunt. Hearn we know.......no morals, no parameters, and the fighters hate him.
Punk ass Shane McGuigan did NOT start emcees introducing trainers, Irish. Buffer started that and was doing it like 20 years ago. Did Buffer start it for any one trainer in particular? Not sure. But I'm pretty sure he was the first emcee to do it.
He did in the fucking UK. I never saw that over here. He had that Dustin Diamond guy doing it. On my life..........I cannot recall ever seeing it in the UK. 15:25 EL CRINGO. Additional El Cringo. 1:10:40 Make sure you check out 1:10:40 Disgusting, the way he catches himself {too late} and tries to retract. TOTAL ARSEHOLE.
Difference with Mailer is that that little guy is the only one that had the balls to confront Sonny Liston physically after Liston called him a bum. Win or lose, Mailer would throw down with anyone. He thought he knew how to box after hanging around with Jose Torres for years, then Ryan O'Neal beat the shit out of him. I know what you mean but there are far worse choices than Norman who truly loved the sport and he did do a lot for boxing on his own dime that was never made public.
I didn't actually single Mailer out as a detestable boxing figure. I merely alluded to how Shane McGuigan hangs out with pro boxers like Mailer did. Mailer has an excuse, he's a writer, a small Jewish guy who want's his physical rep to match his intellect {and Mailer was never a genius IMHO- good but not Chekhov, or Pasternak or Kafka}. McGuigan has no excuse. His dad was a former Champ who beat an ATG in a Stadium fight. He's been around fighters all his life.........and he won't fight, instead he lives off his reputation, or more accurately, his dads.
