I mean, he had his name and scores read out by Al Bernstein, live on TV. The fuck is world coming to?

But with that said, he’s still one of the very first people I go to when getting my daily YouTube fix. At least his interviews, however unprofessional and retarded they are, invoke a bit of fun, laughter and entertainment. I’d much rather watch his stuff than the countless others who give us the same boring shit all over. How many times can you be bothered listening to a fighter come out with “Yes, I’m looking forward to this fight, training’s going well bla bla bla”. Fuck that. I’d rather see Rios and his friends laugh at Elie. Or Khan answer random stupid questions. Or Floyd call him a butt-kisser. Or Miguel Diaz tell him to piss off and leave his fighter alone.

So yeah, keep up the good work, Elie.
Agreed

For a guy who's so much despised, his videos are everywhere. Damn, half of the videos posted on the boxing forum are Seckback's interview.

I didn't mind him until he called Salita #1 p4p because he was undefeated (I think Floyd was retired at the time) before the Khan fight and that other fighters were avoiding him.

Honestly, I don't think he deserves the hate he gets.

The man cannot score a fight to save his life, and he had no idea who Ruben Olivares was. I appreciate the work he does but he's not a knowledgable Boxing fan. That much is obvious.

He is a geek and perhaps mildly delusional,but it is what it is-harmless.

i was pissed off with his Martinez Barker Review.

I remember that. Barker was a 40 to 1 underdog, fought the fight of his life, and Ellie's report was Martinez dominated him from start to finish before KOing him. And Barker just came for the paycheck.

The only thing he has going is quantity of clips but they lack quality. He really doesn't know much about boxing and he asks terrible questions. There are a ton of people out there who could do a much better job in they were in the same position as him in terms of access, etc.

i think he asks good questions, and ike a few posters have said, they are outside the norm.

he also gives a great insight into life in the gyms as well.
