.....Or does Anybody Else think it's WRONG when ESPN has Joe Tessitore & John Scully (or Joe Mesi) Doing Broadcasts of OLD Fights???:dunno: ... There's just Something DECEITFUL about that Process,to REED... Bob Sheridan was the Fucking WORST...He'd Predict KO's B 4 they Happened During his Voice Overs,KNOWING he KNEW the Outcome of the Fight Beforehand. ... If U DIDN'T Know Better,U'd Think these Guys were the Most ASTUTE Commentators Ever,Based on this FALLACY... REED
U've GOT to Elaborate,DOUB... How could U POSSIBLY Like that Shit???:dunno: .. .Did U Like Beavis & Butthead's Voice Overs to Music Videos???... REED::
w/Out Question,REED APPRECIATES the Opportunity to Watch Older Fights MORE than he's Annoyed by the Voice Over Shit... But still,there's "Something" about it that Rubs REED the Wrong Way... Funny thing is,Jim Jacobs did the SAME Shit,but it Never Bothered REED N his Case... REED
My thoughts.. If I'm going to watch an old fight, I have two must: 1) Show the whole fight. Don't give me the highlights 2) Original commentary
REED is N the Midst of Re-Watching ESPN's Replay of Pernell Whittaker vs Santos Cardona... Joe Tessitore Keeps Calling him "Pito" Cardona,who's a Totally DIFFERENT Fighter... REED::
Thing is, I think one of the reasons they never showed "good" old fights in the past was because of the commentary - something about proprietary rights and shit. So the fact that ESPN has worked so hard to dub over all of these fights means they can show more of them. That's great!
