...or the most stupidest.
East coasters getting up at 6.30am, us here in the west at 4.30am...to watch bloody Wlad Klitschko.
We do it week after week, usually by nefarious means to see fights they just aren't covered in any media here. And when we do get the chance to watch a PPV its at least $30 for a card thats an hour and a half or what did I pay, $40 today to see Wlad Klitschko...jaysus, or the $50 Mundine spectaculars...
We pay twice the cover price of Ring magazine that arrives a couple of months late.
We start threads on ESB that go nowhere because of sleep deprivation.
I tell ya, we're bloody good.

Pissweak coverage, no ringside audio and no sound for Bundrages interview. This is making Setanta look good.

I'd be ringside yelling 'Why the fuck are you fighting Riddick'.
But yeah, Colonel Kagsy and the well hung Ring Leader Leon, has a nice ring to it.

This is seriously the worst Heavyweight match i think i have ever seen.
Please Riddick Bowe leave us for good.

It would be fun too mate...we could have Kronky down doing the interviews...comparing everyone to Adam Forsyth.:lol:

This Pukell bum was down in round 5. Bowe should finish him finally.
LeonMcS
12-13-2008, 04:30 PM
You know that would a Mundine undercard watchable.
Kegsy
12-13-2008, 04:32 PM
Bowe seems more interested staring at the crowd then boxing this bum.
LeonMcS
12-13-2008, 04:34 PM
To be honest, I'm more interested in the crowd than these two.

I tell ya, we're bloody good.It is a hell of alot better than it was pre, foxtel days, you had to go to a pub and watch fights from the USA and they would only show big fights maybe couple a year, sometimes a tv station would put on fights.

If I had been a bit more awake I would have got across the point that we are a dedicated bunch, which was the original intention before I went off on a groggy tagent.

Thats it, I pay $40 and I have to suffer through Il Divo?
These Germans have a bizarre sense of humour.
I want a refund.

Hey Kagsy
Give me $50 and I'll get you a career set of Henry Maske! :p

i caught a stream of the fight
i dont think rahman landed a decent power punch in 6 1/2 rounds
it was as one-sideed as they come
T.C.W
12-13-2008, 06:52 PM
I payed, enjoyed it

You must be easily satisfied TCW. Rahman didn't look the least bit interested.

After watching this I think Haye will beat Klit he is way to safe even when Rahman didnt want to be there anymore he was still tentative.
The world deserves Haye to be Heavyweight Champ at least he is exciting.
And the Bowe debacle was sad to watch.

Has Rahman even landed a decent punch in the last 3 years?
