Then you get paid for being average at it. My point was made and it becomes clearer with every post you make in THIS thread while not posting in the Mosely-Mora thread. Many people get paid for things they aren't particularly good at. Don't take it too hard.
What REED Doesn't Like is Behavior that he Rightly or Wrongly Presumes to B FAIRWEATHER, Particularly as it Applies to Boxing... The Sport of Boxing has Been REED's Lifelooooong Passion & his ONLY Source of Income for the Last Several Years....As MUCH as REED Loooooooooooves His Wife, Mrs. REED KNOWS BETTER than to Make REED Choose Btwn HER & Boxing.... LOVE is Unconditional, Dude...Nonetheless, YOU'VE All but Admitted to TURNING YOUR BACK on Boxing...& Why???...Because of "How it's Ran"...It OFFENDS REED that Guys CLAIM to B "Boxing Fans", yet Hold Another Combative Sport in HIGHER Regard.... When MMA Guys Talk Shit about Boxing, REED Couldn't Care Less...But when BOXING Guys Talk Shit about Boxing, THEN Point to MMA as the "Right Way" to Do Things, it IRKS the Shit Out of REED.... REED:kidcool:
And what makes it annoying, is this place is a BOXING SITE. I used to be surrounded by boxing fans. This was the place you could go where you didn't have to deal with non-fans pissing you off, shitting on your sport.
Not sure who you're talking about with the word "All", but I would love to see a statement from me indicating that I turned my back on boxing. To me boxing is the most deeply rooted sport in my memory. Sticking up for MMA against idiots that slam it simply because they're threatened, does not equate to "turning my back on the sport". I too, do not like how boxing is "ran", but it doesn't mean I don't love the sport. To use your analogy, during the NFL strike in the 80's I still watched and loved the sport but it wasn't as much fun. The same is true with boxing right now. I love the sport, but it isn't as much fun as some of the great periods I lived through.
And clearer even more now. See how this works Mr. "I do this for a living." Holy shit that's the funniest thing I've read. You are not even a small percentage as sharp as you think or you wouldn't even be posting in this section. What a simple dolt.
MMA vs. Boxing or just boxing or MMA in general? If its the later, how do you figure? If its the first, How do you figure-there is no debate?
Right now Andrew is considering whether he should respond, because he really wants to get a dig in. On the other hand, each response in THIS thread only further drives home my point. What will he do??????
See, now you're squirming. A simple sentence or two from me, and you're getting defensive and insulting me. I'm quite complex.
Sounds like a personal problem to me. But the fact is that I dont love boxing as much as you do Reed. I never have. Not because im a fairweather fan, but because you love it more. Its pretty simple. You make your living off the sport, i dont. Of course you would love it more. You are also older than me and have the memories of greater times in the sport. I do love boxing, no doubt. As much as you? Doesnt seem that way. Especially what you just posted about your wife and making a living. That said, i have never turned my back on the sport. Hell, i order the fucking PPV this weekend. Im sure most guys on the board didnt that do. Hell i know they didnt. So you need to check what you write, because i never said i turned my back on thes sport.
You have shit on my posts more than i have yours in GD. In fact, i dont think i ever shit on your posts in GD.
We are the few who have. I was reading the thread, and most people didnt. In fact i got a few emails from members here asking for a stream like if i had one and shit
I ordered it. I am a huge Mosely fan. I have said it a dozen times that he is a throw back. He doesn't look for favorable matchups or hand picked fights. The dude just fights anyone. I wouldn't miss him fight. That being said, the main event was mainly boring.
It's either stream it, or spend a measly $45 to watch it on my big screen. Usually an easy choice. And you know how much I've always liked Shane.
The funny part is that Reed and Andrew are arguing with the wrong people here. They dont realize that we ARE fans of both sports. Cant say the same for everyone in this forum, but i know for sure we are. I order pretty much ever PPV out there. Its funny because most people in the GD bash boxing WAY more than we supposedly do.
Yes, if it makes you feel any better, I have fun going back and forth with you. If I didn't I wouldn't be in here.
fuck that stream shit. I need to be comfortable with people having fun. Sitting in front of a monitor waiting for it to freeze isnt worth it. i will pay the 45
Main even was terrible. But Mosely is past it. You kind of hoping for a Mosely KO, but deep in the back of the brain, most boxing fans knew how it would turn out.
Even if I'm alone, like I was on Saturday. $45 is really nothing. I'll always pay for quality. Although I can honestly say, and you guys won't believe me, that I have never ordered a UFC at my house.
BTW, i would rather watch boxing alone then with a bunch of people, most caring only about getting drunk and hanging out then actually watching the fight.
Nope. Never have paid a nickel out of my own pocket for UFC. This is the treatment I get? I didn't even call you out for lying about ordering Mosley/Mora.
Learned what? That a shot out of shape Toney and a bum named Art Jimmerson can't beat ground fighters?
