    For the record I agree with you @pablinov, I've been going back and forth with Nieves-Potapov as well, neither guy has ever impressed me in the least, although I think Nieves is the slightly more skilled of the two, I may switch over as well.

    I hate Cena with a passion, hate Reigns briong and uninspiring, don't care for Rollins, Strowman is a worthless sack of ****, Goldberg still sucks, Enzo and Kass are annoying, New Day are 4 times as annoying as Enzo and Kass, Gallows and Anderson are painful, as are most of the Cruiserweights. Bayley Buttaface and Sami Zayn are physically painful for me to endure, Bray Wyatt's act is cringeworthy.

    I watch the show for Cesaro, Sheamus, Charlotte Flair, Rusev/Lana, Heyman/Lesnar, AJ Styles and Samoa Joe.:deal:

    God I wish Vince would get over his creepy big sweaty smelly 7 foot tall redneck/anyone who's 7 feet tall in general fetish.

    You should watch that mediocre straight to video Rocky Marciano movie that I didn't know better than to not rent on VHS about 20 years ago. Now there's a good boxing movie.

    Southpaw from what I've seen of it annoyed and bored me, I bailed on it, Bleed For This looks absolutely painful, I have zero interest in watching it. It looks sappy and irritating, and add to that I don't give a **** about watching Miles Teller in anything including Whiplash.

    The only Boxing movies I like are Rocky 1,2,4, Raging Bull and Cinderella Man.

    You best edit Rocky 3 back in there, unless you want Thunderlips to run wild on your ass.

    I was rolling my eyes at Hulk in that movie when I was a kid, same goes for Mr. T I'm one of the few kids back then that wasn't enamored with him in the least, I didn't like The A-Team and he was terrible in Rocky 3.

    Kauffman is simply ok in all respects, and I don't feel like he has much to keep Mansour off of him. Not the movement, or the elusiveness, or the power or skill. We've seen his chin, like everything else, is only ok. He was stopped by the miswest heavyweight level Tony Grano.

    Struggling against Arreola like Kaufmann did at this point in time... Mansour seems a whole lot fresher than that despite his age. Arreola was struggling with Parker, whom wasn't even a top 100 heavyweight if I'm remembering correctly.

    So, I'm imagining Mansour catching him clean and taking him out. Where as Kaufmann doesn't do anything great, I truly believe Mansour is one of the hardest hitters we've seen at heavyweight in a long time. He simply has poor execution where you rarely see it applied. Guy can hit.

    I'm not a Hogan fan myself in the least, I almost find him a caricature of most of what's wrong with America, but I had to bust your ass on the explicit Rocky 3 slight.

    If it stars Jon Favraue (or however you spell it) I've already seen it.

    I liked Play it to the Bone with Harrelson & Banderas as well.

    Soprano's guy right? Yeah, that's the one.

    Not an awful movie, for what it was. Popped into my head when I was trying to think about boxing films that are on the obscure side.

    You know what's weird? There's been this huge deluge of boxing movies the past few years, almost as if it's almost this trendy and cool sport. Same thing with a lot of quick make a buck MMA influenced movies you see.

    Plus, who ever heard of a Jewish heavyweight?! (Outside of the plenty there actually are, lol) They're pretty obscure though, kind of like Canelo.
