    Mate I think the HBO telecast and Boxnation one showed the same post-fight interview.

    I agree he could have show Max more respect, but still, I found it entertaining and in sync with the type of war he'd just given us.

    Loved it. It was real. Those were real emotions spilling out of real tough guys.

    My girl doesn't watch much boxing with me and she loved it. She's ready for the third fight, getting into the rivalry. Anything that gets her to watch more fights with me is great, too.

    Exactly! The casuals watching that would have loved it! That's what boxing needs, and HBO would have benefitted greatly from it.

    I agree. He didn't say anything bad to or about Alvarado, so I don't think he crossed any lines, either. Apart from maybe interrupting his interview, but that's minor.

    And I'm sure plenty of casuals tuned in tonight. Wars draw them in. He'll, they still draw me in

    Nah, BoxNation had a female interviewer. I think it's the same chick you see on the Top Rank website.

    Oh **** yes, they would have had Top Rank's feed as opposed to HBO's. Damn, I missed that. What was he like with her? Was he cussing her like he was Max :lol:

    Heh, he wasn't that hostile. I assume it was after the Max interview so he probably calmed down a bit. But he was still angry and wasn't having any of it. I think her last question was "Do you want a rematch?" "Yeah, I'll fight 12 more rounds right now. Let's ****ing do it!"

    He was ****ing rude and disrespectful. All sticking his middle finger up to the crowd while she trying to conduct an interview. His language was appalling she felt so uncomfortable she cried out for bob.

    If this was someone else people would have been crying about a lack of class. But because it rios it shows his passion lmao
