Oh, you are not a boxing fan for not watching two guys 108 pounds dooking it out. WTF ever. I cant even watch Montiel fight without laughing my ass off. I tried...could not help myself.
GOD DAMN IT MY ****ING CABLE PROVIDER HAD VS OFF FROM FROM ABOUT 9.pm. NOTHING BUT BLANK ASS SCREEN!:cus NOW IT COMES ON THE AIR AFTER 11:20, I hope I can catch the replay later 2night.
Good, so stop coming in our threads if we're seriously critiquing someone and bitching like a little girl, if you judge someone on if they entertain your view of entertainment within the sport.
It's not different to me. I don't have a football team I just watch it cuz I like it. There are plenty of times when there is only one game to watch, and I may not watch it for various reasons. Still a big fan though. With boxing, the fight that happens to be on may not interest me because of the TV Show that's on in the same time slot. Or it may not interest me as much as my new video game. I understand your frustration at these fights not getting hyped. But simply post shout outs to the fighters and tell people who to look for and when. More and more people will watch if the fights are as good as you say. Insulting those who didn't watch isn't going to endear them to your message. But hey, thats just my opinion.
Name one...his **** was the most pathetic excuse for a boxing match that I have ever seen. Forget he is twice the size of every opponent. And forget that every opponent looks like they are intentionally trying not to punch him in his wide open face. Anyway. I have a gripe with him and mother****ing Zahir Raheem of whom is the devil.
I'll tell you guys something that I have learned - Boxing fans are generally the worst to deal with, luckily this forum has been expanded into much broader view points than it was before, because everything was accepting as face value before. Two years ago you had morons picking Gatti over Mayweather and by a pretty decent percentage.:yep I mean, come on:yep , there are your fans that agree the fraudulent rating and assessment systems.:yep They also thought Taylor was a future ATG, glad me and Zak were here to clear that **** up back about December 05 was it?
We're both fans of Mijares, so we do have some things in common. You just enjoy boxing from a different perspective, but I don't doubt you're a fan. I also wasn't calling you with my post, it's just on a damn boxing site, with a good/decent card on basic cable, you think more people would watch. It's not like Montiel should be an unknown, I've seen him fight numerous times before, and he almost always puts on a good show. I think Mijares would beat him down even worse than he beat down Arce though, but it'd be a fun entertaining fight while it lasted.. Montiel has heart, he's shown that through the years.
Name one?? How bout the last JCC jr fight with that midget. I mean he hit this midget about 100 times in the face and he kept coming back even tagging JCC, but Junior wouldnt have none of it so he TKOed his ass. That was a great fight man
Montiel has never had a signature showcase on a premium network like others have, take Calderon for example, he is well known and recieved press for his last win, which was a good fight, but how many times did he outclass guys on PPV undercards? I counted 3-4, specifically one on a Pacquaio undercard, that's a lot of exposure for him. Montiel, I've only seen him on smaller networking for the most part and he's not entirely marketable. This is sad, but it's totally not surprising, it operates much like underground music, which is of a different quality than what sells in the mainstream, MOST, not all, but most commercial music is not on that level, but what gets press and what sells more? Commercial. This comparison is valid. I did not say you were calling me out, but it caught KG's eyes, who is a very avid boxing fan and is also the type that enjoys brutal bouts and seeks to analyse and broaden his understanding of the sport, he simply didn't care about this fight and that doesn't put anything against him as a fan. Also, Mijares is mildly competitive with Montiel, goes back to styles, Mijares had the nastiest style for Arce possibly, but damn did he bring it home, what a display! Mijares 8-4 over Montiel, hope it gets made since Montiel would be a good resume point, but I doubt it, Mijares is going to be avoided.
I agree 8 - 4, since Mijares doesn't have a huge punch. It'd be a good fight though. Probably as an undercard on a big PPV, hopefully JMM vs Pacman II.
.. you know, this stuff shouldn't surprise me, you ever seen the crowd during the undercards of big fights, and there's like only a couple hundred fans there until the Main Event starts... most people just don't care unless it's the big superstar name... I think it's just I expect more on a boxing forum, since that's why I come here, is to discuss fights like the ones on tonight... we got the rest of the week to talk about all the other crap.
