4.50pm First sign of intelligent life. I'm at the Paddo in Mt.Hawthorn Perth and some schmuck introduces himself after seeing my fight magaines in front of me. 4.53pm Readjust my earlier sighting, the guys obviously a ******, has no idea. Undercard kicks off, crowd, 2 people. *Ok, its 5 hrs later and a lot of beers, so we'll just fly from my beer stained notes Expert commentators, Jason Dunstall (?) & Barry Michael...whilst just keeping my beer down hear BM say "Gee Choc your looking lean' and barely make it to the mens before the vomit comes. 1st bout, Frank La Porto vs Sudesh Sharma, not a good sign when FLP name is spelt wrong. My notes; empty arena, usaul Choc u/card, over at 2;30 in the first. Post fight interview...FLP...man of few words...like the fact he has a warm up bout 5 weeks before an Australian title defence. Cut to celebritys in crowd...amid cries of 'who the ****?' realise its Fox cross promoting Australias next sheep shagger or something... Surge in crowd at pub 2nd bout Oyewale Omotoso vs Komsak Sithkrupon 1st round 10-9, KO waiting to happen 2nd round 10-9, competitive 3rd, 10-8 notes; super slow mo a hit with crowd, "You can see his earlobes wobble!" 4th, nice uppercut, KO 2nd celeb interview...Chance Bateman...what, cos he has dreadlocks? 3rd bout; Ahmed Elomar vs opponent, friends arrive so I expect the expected. My notes read 'who cares' but by the fourth Elomar does as his knocked down and out, big shock against a 5-13 opponent. Sam supporters take heart 4th bout; more pissed, less notes. Foley vs Montaz(?)...all i can decode is why showboat after 0 wins and two losses...also 'only plus, cant hear Barry Michaels commentary...' jeez I'm bitter 5th bout, thought it was a TD4 but ruled TKO4 to Porky. Crowd restless. Market researchers descend on me cos I'm drinking Guinness. My notes verbatim read...'D.Greens wife???' 'Mundine blah blah' 'D Green i/view...why' 'DG quote Only person who can beat Choc is me' MainEvent LeonMcS scorecard AM vs SS 10-10 9-10 9-10 10-9 10-9 10-9 10-9 10-9 9-10 9-10 10-9 9-10 Final scores 115-114 Mundine BAC (est .110) drive home Stopped in at 2 pubs on way home, vague memories of being extremely popular...though the restraining orders may differ.
I was at the fight and i had choc winning 116-112. Sams style makes him look like he is doing a lot, but really, not much lands.
i didn't bring enough money with me to buy a t shirt. i only had $5 on me, just enough to pay your mum for the night.
But you buy all the t-shirts and best seats, you keep aussie boxing alive!! Save your money, your too old for my mum. Hey Barge, you should make another thread, one that nobody posts in? Because you sux :hi:
