yeah, don't get me wrong, I wouldn't mind seeing boxing completely bottom out and have to start from scratch. not sure I agree (or necessarily...
:lol:
Atlas is horrible, mainly because he feasts on weak-minded fighters, in attempts to control their every move. the problem is that almost every...
Despise: Oscar, Mierda, Tarver, Mayorga, Vitali, Teddy Reid... there are others, but that's pretty much my top 5 (or bottom 5, depending on how...
First off, it was a joke. And anyway, I didn't say it because you disagreed with me, I said it because you almost never have anything positive to...
Because you casually brush off the same issues in that sport that you continuously bitch about with boxing. I clearly said before and today that...
they just wanted it as an excuse to re-broadcast Wlad's fight that night. They were only interested in this fight as a doubleheader, not as a...
I generally don't have any issues w/ TFK, I think he's an alright dude, but I honestly think he should be banned from the boxing section of this...
I wish you would've said that in beginning rather than reading through all of that. This card, even if all of the aforementioned, is at best on...
you got that one backwards. It was Norris who pulled out of their scheduled June 1997 (then rescheduled Aug 1997) fight, choosing THAT time to...
Um.... as mentioned, they're airing a card tomorrow night :lol: I think the first hour will be on Showtime, and the rest is on SET-PPV
it depends on the company. it costs considerably more to deal with HBO and Showtime, though I'm not sure of the exact splits. Some distributors go...
And my usual counterpoint... If none of the networks are interested in airing the fight, what are the fighters supposed to do - not fight?...
^^^ my thoughts exactly
It's PPV - but ONLY because neither HBO or Showtime were interested in the fight. The price tag was too high for ESPN2 (where it belongs) or any...
I hope you're right. It sounds like he'll never fight Chad Dawson, unless his hand is forced and he has no other options. Plus Muriqi has had a...
No it won't. C'mon, getting dropped and thoroughly dominated by a 41-year old Hopkins, coming off of back to back (controversial) losses AND...
Listening to that, and all of the other stupid shit Tarver had to say, during yesterday's conference call was an hour of my life that I would love...
All points taken. It just seemed like you were taking issue with those who claim that Cotto is physically stronger at 147 than he was when...
The Corley fight is one of the most exaggerated I've ever seen. Cotto got hurt in the 3rd round. He was back in control of the fight by the end of...
... for now. But beating Williams, and especially Cotto, would go a long way for him.
I don't get all of this talk of Cotto being chinny or that if he gets hurt, he's done. Miguel's been hurt twice in his career, and both times he...
Maybe it will air next week - they have nothing scheduled for Wednesday Night Fights on June 6, so who knows. Just seems weird that they'd use a...
there it is. stick it in a loop and you have a full-length Zab interview. My favorite is when fighters say "i'm pound for pound the best in the...
I remember something similar when Chiquita fought Saman SorJarturang. IT was Chiquita's last fight, and Saman rallied back to stop him in the 7th....
Zab had a gem of a quote a couple of weeks ago at the Memphis luncheon. "I'm like an '07 Diablo. and Miguel is... is... is... he a Toyota...
It actually means "Well" the way they use it. As in: Question: How did you feel about your performance? Answer: Bueno, yo... (translation,...
According to HBO as well :lol: Lamon is my favorite current heavyweight (though he really stretched the term "current" for the past year and...
i agree on the first half, not sure about the last part, though. I don't think much of Sultan, but it's like Shannon's never been shook by less.
I;'m not sure why they would tell you it's going to be on ESPN next week. I haven't known them to ever show a week-long delayed broadcast, much...
