    UFC's novelty has proper worn off for me. All the pubescent-rage Nu-Metal, the idiots screaming 'FUUUCCCKKKK YYYEEAAAH!!!!' into the camera, the hideous Affliction style tshirts.

    Quite tasteless, good sir.

    I watch for the violence, definitely not for the idiots in the crowd.

    I was thinking Pryor or Tszyu were the only two possibilities and then I thought no, Hatton could be there, too.

    Anyway, Hatton went a long, long time without looking for tought opponents and he avoided Witter. Guys that suddenly get brave at the end of their careers don't deserve the "not afraid to take on any opponent" compliment.

    I'll go against the grain and select Aaron Pryor.

    That kind of rebellious attitude could get you into trouble one day. Don't say i didn't warn you.

    Hatton wasn't a boring clincher until later in his career. He was fun to watch as he was coming up the ranks.

    It's on.

    Ramonza pays for my flight, drinks and all accommodations (staying with his sister) and 60% of the purse.

    Sign the contract

    You'll need to send me nude photos of all 3 so i can decide.

    I'm not stepping on any flight until this contractual obligation is met.

    We are at a contractual impasse, then. I don't own, & steadfastly refuse to take, such pictures.

    The greatest fight which never was...

    You're what's wrong with boxing today.

    Fights don't get made because of politics.

    Was it you who said in the, "1st Thing That Comes To Mind About The Poster Above You," thread who said, "Probably has a hot sister, if she's under 25?"

    Doesn't get more rando than that, I thought :lol:

    Who cares if I'm what's wrong with the sport. We all know Boxing was way better in the black-&-white days, anyway.

    Gangrenous George McCallister and Blackfeet Barnes fought because their promoters did what it took to get the fight made. I figured as man of old school values you wouldn't let politics get in the way of getting a matchup signed the people want to see.

    Sign the contract

    Alright, you have appealed to the Tex Rickard in me. For the aggravation of tracking down multiple ex-boyfriends, however, I demand a 60-40 split of the PPVs.
