Did you guys take the short, yellow bus to school or something? Nobody is complaining this fight is on ESPN. HBO AND SHOW CAN'T GET NEW SUBSCRIBERS TO SEE THIS FIGHT. NO NEW SUBSCRIBERS = NO NEW $$$$ FOR THESE NETWORKS.....GEEEZ! This content is protected
It's not a marketable fight despite the fact that Vitali IS marketable. Nowadays it takes two to tango and JC Gomez hasn't exactly been hyped nor has he been on tv much. It's got it's core market and that's it.
And you are worried about....the NETWORKS pocket change? Does that really bother you that ESPN might LOSE money on this? :huh
That's not my position, Lance. I could care less if these networks lose money. They lose money one day and profit the next. These networks certainly have more money than me so I don't care either way.
Better yet... I talked to Wlad. ESPN screwed up. ESPN has the wrong time for the fight... We (the states) had a time change, but Germany didnt, so as of now Germany is 5 hours (east coast) and 8 hours (west coast) ahead of us They have it listed as 5pm eastern but it actually is 6pm (11pm in germany - 5 hours = 6pm eastern) and now ESPN says they have a conflict....IDIOTS:smoke:smoke They told the camps they will work it out... but what a stupid mistakenut
horse****, they couldve made this a ****ing Event, instead of alotting 1 hr broadcast, they couldve had story, and undercard with byrd or thompson on it, and then the main even with intros...they dropped the ball
O i know the day u fu341ing idiot that sucks Wlad and Vitalis di34 ery nite...but ur bois still aren't on the major networks....shows how good this hw era is..fu34in garbage...
because showtime and HBO are a pain in the ass. I cant believe you guys are giving the fighters **** about being on ESPN... its a brilliant marketing move and is GREAT for boxing
There's nothing to hype here. All of the good hype was in Peter/Vitali...this is nothing more than a title defense. Gomez is unknown in the US with no fan base. Vitali is very popular but hasn't had a fight in the U.S in god knows how long and his fight against Peter was completely mis handled by showtime. They're going out of their way to showcase a fight for us, the hardcore boxing fan. They did the same thing with Bell/Adamek and nobody complained about that. Just be happy they picked it up.
Wlad said something about 6pm is the live news desk or some **** like that... they said they would keep it live... ROOKIES:rofl:rofl
Why are people who dislike Wlad and Vitali "haters?" I ONCE TOLD YOU THAT I THOUGHT THEY WERE THE BEST IN THIS ERA AND COULD BEAT ANYONE IN THIS WEAK DIVISION AND YOU CALLED ME A HATER CUZ OF THAT...UR FU34IN IGNORANT AND I'LL NEVER MEET U BUT IF I DID I'D BEAT YOUR A$$ N BUST YOUR JAW FOR YOUR SORRY ASS POSTS:bbb
I'm sure you would. I can tell by your posts that you would be a serious threat in the streets. Until then... just keep blasting away on that keyboard with very hard strokes and abuse of the caps lock key.
