Kazuto Ioka vs. Akira Yaegashi RBR

IntentionalButt · 06-20-2012, 05:40 AM

Top of the hour.

IB's RBR disclaimer:

DO NOT ASK FOR LINKS! Do not hint for them. Do not ask "what channel?". Do not make any post that could be interpreted as insinuating a link request, even if it sounds innocent (ie stuff like "Gee, I don't have a way to watch this" or "if only this was televised where I live...")

All that stuff will a) get you banned and b) clutter up my thread with quickly deleted posts. The folks at ESB do not want to get sued and therefore have adopted a VERY strict policy of zero-tolerance on stream requests to cover their butts. The moderators DO enforce this policy, and they patrol my RBR threads like sharks so DON'T think they won't catch you.

Oh, and...

If you're dumb enough to discuss streams in any way (again, even seemingly innocent discussion such as asking for a "legal" one) and they see your post and delete it/ban you (it WILL happen, believe me) - DO NOT HARASS ME VIA PM FOR "SNITCHING" YOU OUT. That has nothing to do with me. The moderators patrol the threads, and see the offending posts for themselves without anybody having to snitch. Don't blame me that you did something against the site's rules and got caught/banned. I personally don't give a flying fuck what anyone does and am not here to 'snitch' and have neither the time nor motive to get involved with crap like that while doing my RBR reports. The moderators are doing what they're supposed to be doing and the issue is between you and them if you are breaking rules. Just please don't clutter up my threads with posts that are going to get deleted and muck up each page. It's unseemly and disrupts everyone else's enjoyment.

Thank you.

PS. My only other rule in these threads is that, as a matter of courtesy, you refrain from posting spoilers if you are aware of undercard results that most people are going to see televised on delay. Also, if there are two events going on at once keep all discussion of the other card in its own thread, and don't cross-contaminate with spoilers between the two. Thanks.

Midweek early bird action!

Lovely jubbly! Come on Ioka!

Let's go to war ...

Zacker · 06-20-2012, 06:08 AM

Which one is up first?

IntentionalButt · 06-20-2012, 06:08 AM

Japanese boxers always think they're going to catch bird flu or something between their dressing rooms and the ring.

Or rather, can I fetch a quick lunch before Iola Yaegashi starts?

They're running hype pieces and having the analysts give their thoughts...we're about to find out what's first on the boxing menu probably upon return from this commercial break.

I'd wait a minute...if you don't care about the Pacific light flyweight title and it's being shown next you're probably safe. One moment...

sadlittleboy · 06-20-2012, 06:15 AM

I've just been told that the masks may be something to do with Buddhists. Not sure if the fighters are but their is (according to Wiki) a large Buddhist community in Japan.

IntentionalButt · 06-20-2012, 06:18 AM

More hype pieces.

They keep showing these two guys...
http://i45.tinypic.com/2ykjk35.jpg

I think they're Joichiro Tatsuyoshi and Yasuei Yakushiji, who clashed for the WBC bantamweight title on December 4th, 1994 (they keep referencing that date via graphic, although neither of their names are given in English...)

Probably having some "18 years later" reunion between the rivals.

Apparently they're somehow connected to tonight's main event?

vengeex · 06-20-2012, 06:22 AM

That's cool... Both were laughing, having a good time...

Zacker · 06-20-2012, 06:24 AM

I took a chance and ran off. Living on the edge pays off sometimes!

IntentionalButt · 06-20-2012, 06:27 AM

They're doing an almost round-by-round retrospective of Tatsuyoshi vs. Yakushiji, showing highlights with commentary and then cutting back to the pair watching themselves together in present day.

It looks like a fun fight and all, lots of lock-stepped pocket exchanges, close-range slipping & weaving, and BUDI BUDI BUDI punching - but FFS get to the live stuff. I have to leave for work in 90 minutes.
