Prizefighter is all about entertainment & last night delivered. I watched it with a few mates who are casual boxing fans & they loved it. You had a bit of everything last night, stoppages, close fights, a robbery of a decision, blood, guts & glory. The last one I enjoyed that much was the 1st HW prizefighter that Rogan won. There were guys with some great background stories, guys with different styles & some entertaining fights. I really enjoyed it, of course from a boxing point of view its never going to be the greatest (just look at the line-up) but that's not what Prizefighter is all about.
Why does he need elocution lessons? He's a fighter. As long as he lets his fists do the talking he will be fine.
I didn't say he needed them to succeed as a fighter. If you followed along with the conversation it was about his star potential. :good Crossover stardom in the sport requires a combination of ability & charisma. Right now he's halfway there, and seems unlikely to gain much ground in the other half. It hardly matters, though. If he only ever becomes a successful fighter and never develops crossover appeal, he'll still have done better than most.
The whole first round was Robin coiling around Toby's knees like an anaconda. It looked like a little kid begging their pa not to leave for work. Bizarre.
