    Yeah my favourite stuff comes from Garcia's gym and Kid Chocolate and his family.

    epxlain the basis for this thread. how could he possibly be bad for boxing. he's a clownish independent reporter. some of his interviews need to be put on friday night fights' news segment, or the upcoming jim lampley show. it would generate buzz for matchups that havent even been made yet. imagine if sechbach's interviews with kelly pavlik were showcased on friday night fights? that would build much anticipation for his journey back to the limelight. elie seckbach is great for boxing, and could be even better if he was hired somewhere.

    Elie is clearly a boxing fan

    Does he report well? that's up to you.

    He gets the content online and clearly works hard and that is worth respect.

    Leo Fong videos were good

    More based towards quantity rather than quality. atleast 1 in every of his 20 videos is worth the watch.

    Just a catchy title. I wanted to know what people's own opinions are. I like his videos but definitely wouldn't want HBO or Showtime or ESPN actually setting up a large scale boxing coverage thing and then hiring Elie. Would love if someone who loves the sport, knows a lot and isn't biased do what Elie is doing.

    I think elie's enthusiasm would carry him and make him somewhat of a polarizing figure, and I'd go as far as to say, icon within boxing circles, if he were hired somewhere.

    What do you do for this sport? Hope somebody will hire Elie because he invested a lot of time and money, all the respect for him.

    I agree, he is one of those love him or hate him kind of figures. I could see him getting offered a small segment on fnf.

  12. His voice is annoying,his questions are bad and he just wants to start **** with all the guys. He tries to get Arreola and Toney to say dumb ****.
    Elie is not a reporter. He doesn't report anything.

    Ree-porting.
    Ree-tarded.

    If somehow that does happen, then I wouldn't hate on him for it. He has earned it. Elie's not a bad guy, that's why I don't hate him but I hope he gets smarter and starts showing deep boxing knowledge in a few years or so.

    He reminds me of those kids you would beat up in school for doing dumb ****, like eating glue.

    I will watch any videos not involving pac, because his bias is at an all time high, although he has been humbled as of late ever since the marquez ass whooping last november.

    Just remember to cut off before he does that reporting bull****.

    He's no longer a reporter but a ****ing PR rep for anything Garcia related. Check out his butthurt after the Abril fight. He also has the dress sense of a 12 year old and the IQ of a turd.
