    Please tell me I'm not the only one who just saw Rome's final burn.

    Maybe, I misinterpreted him, but it seemed as if he was condoning Mayweather running around with his entourage throwing money around as if it were cool or something. He said that mayweather makes them earn their money.

    He said a lot, but all I know is that it was stupid and mayweather looked like a freaking idiot.

    Kellerman is - hands down - the WORST boxing commentator I have ever seen in my 30 years of following boxing. Unlike any commentator you could name, he never paid dues as a boxing journalist or participant - and it shows!:yep

    Nice that Romey comes back from vacation to spout that bullsh*t. I felt bad for the sister last week who had to read the drivel he emailed from Cancun.

    I guess Jim Rome is a normal guy. He's not some hater who gets all bent out of shape about what another man does with his money. You can't go to a black club anymore without someone throwing money on the crowd. As long as he's not doing something illegal, I couldn't care less what Mayweather does with his money.

    Eh, it's kind of nice to know what's coming on a Friday night. A couple beers, semi-decent fights between B level guys, well worn metaphors, outrage at the officials. Right now I still like Teddy better than Max. He'll improve though. Teddy won't.

    The only thing I remember about Jim Rome is that he was the guy who kept calling Jim Everett "Chris Everett" and nearly got his head handed to him for it back in 1994.

    Chris Everett needs to learn some self control. You can't go around attacking people on T.V because you don't like what they say.

    :lol::lol::lol:
    True....but I have seen fighters hit each other for less at press conferences.

    Jim gave him fair warning IMO. You call a grown man a woman to his face, well, some don't take it so well right? :bbb

    Christy Everett is a punk. He's real tough picking on a much smaller guy. I bet you if Reggie White were the host and called him Chris 20 times, Everett would have kept his ****in mouth shut. Little ass Jim Rome says something than he becomes a tough guy. On a side note, look how Rahman puts Lennox Lewis in his place on Up Close

    Lol....

    Maybe, maybe not. Depends on the guy. Of course, Jim Rome being the smaller guy should probably be aware of his size disadvantage. Can't blame Jim Everett really. He wouldn't have been able to face his teammates the next day.

    You think if Stephen A Smith called Allen Iverson "Alice Iverson" to his face he wouldn't get clocked?
