That's true, but Sergei and Nagy were both definitely slow & plodding. Having one quick heavyweight in a particular match-up isn't enough to hold my interest when the other guy's just a punching bag. That's why this is so appealing: http://www.eastsideboxing.com/forum/showthread.php?t=390161 :deal
Agreed. I was pissed though cause I was out all night and dvred the fights. They did not broadcast Judah vs Paris. I youtubed the knockout.
:huh Yeah they did. Oh, you know what happened? It went long. NBC Sports only penciled in a two hours slot, for a ****ing triple-header. atsch So all three bouts (two ten rounders and a twelve rounder) were supposed to be squeezed in between 10pm EST and 12am. It was after midnight when Judah vs. Paris finally got started, so your DVR didn't record it. The computer just assumes the program ended at midnight when it was supposed to. For live sporting events that might run long, you should always add a buffer of at least 30-40 minutes to the recording. Still, dumb programming by NBC Sports. They should have either made it a double header or extended the scheduled broadcast to 2.5/3 hours.
Yeah thanks. Ill definitely add some buffer time in the future. I hope to see more fights on that station. Good for Zab he's one of my faves
I agree, this card was so much better than the garbage on HBO... Glad I watched it live and just DVR'd the HBO horse****. If I had no idea who was on the card and was told I could watch a card on one of the following: ESPN2, NBC Sports, or Showtimep; or I could watch a card on HBO, I'd never watch boxing on HBO. The network's boxing franchise has gone to utter **** in the last 4-5 years with the GBP near-monopoly.
I think all the fights were really entertaining and had its excitement. I want to credit the officiating on these fights because all the refs made the guys actually fight and limited the bull**** :good
Great card no doubt but what made it great was that the fights were all entertaining. But i really like how NBC does their show.
Zab looked good. Yeah he outclassed Paris in almost every single way but I've seen him in simlar fights look like ****. Aguilara was a live dog for Adamek too, good quality fight. They need to turn up Freddy's mike, he is tough to understand if the crowd is loud.
Lol, **** man, I'm not saying it was the greatest event of all time, I just thought the fights were fun and the guys fought their asses off. It's rare you see a card with two HW fights on it, that doesn't make you want to drive your car into a God Damn bridge embankment lol.
Thoroughly enjoyed the card. Can't wait for the next one. Was happy for Judah. The only thing I didn't like was the venue choice. It looked small time high school gym statu other.than that, great production.
