    Come watch a fight with me! I'm watching Toney vs Jirov and you're going to watch me vs a box of cheap wine.

    First sub!

    Glad you got this going.
    Looking forward to more.

    You were absolutely right about that body shot.

    :clap: Enjoyed the video immensely and look forward to watching more of Escudo's Finest Fights. I share your admiration for Toney, the guy could not be any more boss.

    "I'm not a pro cornerman, I'm not a pro trainer, I'm just some dikhead and even I can see" - Escudo on Jirov's corner :biggrin:.

    Agree with your opinion on the scorecards, Toney was a class apart and clearly displayed superiority. Did Jirov have a lot of hype around him as an undefeated KO artist? That might explain why the judges are so kind, aggressive though he was he missed A LOT.

    You come across well on camera, your enthusiasm is infectious. I certainly prefer your swearing and drinking brand of commentary to some calm, boring, monotone type any day. Well done and great work befitting such a great fight, MORE MORE MORE!!! :thumbsup:

    Any suggestions? I'm working on improving the audio mix so you can hear lampley and co. and me when I talk. I think my mic has a booster on it that lowers the volume of everything else when I speak. I gotten suggestions for a better background. But here on this boxing forum I am here looking for fights. Wars, masterclasses close ones and controversial. If it's got a decent story and interesting technique I'll do it.

    I just re-watched it for the first time. My first thought, after a shakey intro (I will work to refine that a bit) it was what I hoped it would be. Funny, informative, genuine and poetic at times. There should be and will be a hundred of these.

    My only big worry is the copyright situation.

    Good stuff. I did a couple of these just like this but didn't put them out there for whatever reason.

    Keep at it.

    Amazing dude! I just watched it from start to finish. I love your commentary, very engrossing and I agree with everything you said. If I had a recommendation for a fight analysis I would saw Duran vs Barkley. A whole lot of skill involved in that one. The consistency of the head movement of Toney was insane!

    The first true full fight article I wrote on imgur was about that fight and it's certainly worth a revisit. My girlfriend is going away next friday for a week, so there should be plenty of time to bang out a few videos and get the channel up and running properly. SO I NEED YOUR SUGGESTIONS, WHAT DO YOU KNOWLEDGEABLE PEOPLE WANT TO SEE?

    Nice, I look forward to it! Another suggestion I would love to see a analysis is Chavez vs Rosario. A more subtle defence in a incredible performance.
