What's happening?

They have showed a few episodes of fightcamp,never realised what a bell end Dirrel is.

Just showed Kessler/Perdomo
I must say,really enjoyed the fact there was no commentry but still the crowd/fight noise. Be quite good if Sky gave you this option for all their fights.

[Carnage]

Yes

Cotto-Pac last week, Bute-Andrade II next week, Williams-Martinez week after and Diaz-Malignaggi week after that :fire. Not staying up for all of those.
Better than no boxing!

Not staying up for all of them. The amount of times I've told myself that.

[nulty]

Oh yeah I'm staying up. Come on Mikkel.

[Mr. V.I.P.]

Yeah. And a camera view from beneath the ring a different view that gives you more of a feel of being there. Or the ringside camera all the way through.

Im staying up.

[nip102]

Will prob stay up to see williams be outboxed by martinez

[ishy]

Not staying up for all of them. The amount of times I've told myself that.

:lol::yep

[GazOC]

Staying up but a wee bit leathered. Apologies in advanced!!!

[PrideOfWales]

I'll stay up if ishy stays up

[PrideOfWales]

Watching round 6 of Froch-Dirrell - I think I saw Froch actually land a punch :think

Nah... Must be the poor picture quality...

[TheUzi]

Watching round 6 of Froch-Dirrell - I think I saw Froch actually land a punch :think

Nah... Must be the poor picture quality...

Yeah I think I caught that as well. Dont think you would've thought it landed if it was in HD.

[ed7890]

Ya, i'd say i will

[nulty]

Weird day. Cheering for Scotland in the rugby, and then cheering for a certain boxer from Denmark in the night?

I'm cheering for Kessler as Froch v Kessler in Copenhagen will be class. I can't wait for it.

[clyde]

Decision time.

Do I go to the fridge and start on the 650ml bottles of imported Heineken or go to bed?

[GazOC]

Decision time.

Do I go to the fridge and start on the 650ml bottles of imported Heineken or go to bed?

Man up motherfucker!!!:bbb:bbb;)

[nulty]

Just remembered that I forgot to put credit on that bloody pre pay electric meter my flat has, I better not get cut off before the fights finished.

[GPater11093]

im here lads had my fight last night so im pumped

Ward UD anyway

[ishy]

Staying up but a wee bit leathered. Apologies in advanced!!!

:lol:

I'll stay up if ishy stays up

:lol::yep
Watching round 6 of Froch-Dirrell - I think I saw Froch actually land a punch :think

Nah... Must be the poor picture quality...

:lol:

[GPater11093]

what do you guys think of the bird telling us how to regsister every half hour

[Primadonna Kool]

No i'm not staying up.

And i have never seen Andre Ward fight before, but i'm gonna pick him to win by 8 round TKO....and ive never seen him fight.

I watched a shitty video of the weigh in earlier on today, and for some reason.....i just feel like Andre Ward will win by 8 round tko.

[kosaros]

I'm staying up - hopefully Kessler wins, makes his fight against Froch that bit better :yep

I was leaning towards a late Kessler stoppage, but I think he will win a close decision.

[PrideOfWales]

what do you guys think of the bird telling us how to regsister every half hour

Too much fake tan... Good voice though... Yes I would... Several times..

[clyde]

Just remembered that I forgot to put credit on that bloody pre pay electric meter my flat has, I better not get cut off before the fights finished.


Only one solution.

Turn of EVERYTHING in the house (including the computer) and sit shivering in the dark until about 4 a.m

[nulty]

Only one solution.

Turn of EVERYTHING in the house (including the computer) and sit shivering in the dark until about 4 a.m

I've switched the boiler off and turned off the fridge and the lights. Why can't there be a 24 hours shop with paypoint near by.

[Grievesy]

Yes but not paying for it this time, seeing as a I fell asleep and missed the Froch fight last time.

[jc]

Im up. Primetimes adverts are a bit annoying and repetitive though.

[LocoRoco]

anyone have an idea what time they will be in the ring?

[clyde]

anyone have an idea what time they will be in the ring?

It's usually about 5 minutes after I've nodded off in my chair

[foreverleeds]

I'm up and wide awake now after falling asleep for a couple of hours. I think last nights Motorhead gig caught up with me :lol:

Anyway, the San Miguel is ice cold in the fridge and there is some left over KFC to dig into!!

All i need now is for Kessler to bring the money home and stop Ward at some point in the fight :bbb

[PrideOfWales]

It's pretty impressive that they got Kessler to go to Ward's hometown for this.

[GazOC]

It's pretty impressive that they got Kessler to go to Ward's hometown for this.

And with Wards judges and ref!!

Its asking for trouble.

[kosaros]

It's usually about 5 minutes after I've nodded off in my chair

Clyde, was I the only person to predict a Sunderland victory in the prediction league today?

[PrideOfWales]

And with Wards judges and ref!!

Its asking for trouble.

That's not Sauerlands style.. they must know something we don't.

[chrisfinch]

I'm gonna try and give it a go. The "earlier" start time by UK standards sold it.

[ishy]

It's pretty impressive that they got Kessler to go to Ward's hometown for this.

Tbf, Kessler does travel if need be. Beyer in Germany, Mundine in Oz, Joe C in Wales.

I think it'll be a bigger shock if Ward travels in the tourney, he has already said he's been told all his group stage fights will be in the US.

[hitman_hatton1]

I've switched the boiler off and turned off the fridge and the lights. Why can't there be a 24 hours shop with paypoint near by.

don't some cashpoints do it? :roll:

we used to have a pay metre for electric.

got fed up with it in the end.

very expensive and annoying when u forget to top it up. :patsch

True, but the only bizarre one really there was Mundine. He was chasing Beyer and Kawazaki's belts.

[clyde]

Clyde, was I the only person to predict a Sunderland victory in the prediction league today?


yes. only 3 points so far though, you could do with a correct score or two tomorrow.

[ishy]

True, but the only bizarre one really there was Mundine. He was chasing Beyer and Kawazaki's belts.

:think

Anyway, I designate this thread as the official RBR thread..:lol:

[TFFP]

How is Primetime holding up for you guys?

[kosaros]

yes. only 3 points so far though, you could do with a correct score or two tomorrow.

I know, the rest of my picks were terrible - still at least I got the result of the team I support right!............................................................

Great day of boxing - looking forward to seeing the results in the Sosa, Maidana and Sonsona fights :good

[ishy]

They might do. We'll find out in 40 mins...

[nulty]

don't some cashpoints do it? :roll:

we used to have a pay metre for electric.

got fed up with it in the end.

very expensive and annoying when u forget to top it up. :patsch

And they actually charge you get rid of it and have a normal meter. My gas is on a normal meter and looking at the readings on that I've overpaid by 40 already, I;ve not been here that long either. You'd think some numpty at scottish power would look at a situation like this and say okay his leccys running low but we've got £40 quid of his money sitting our bank account right now lets give the guy some breathing space.

I can't do mine at a cashpoint it's like a plastic key thingy.

[hitman_hatton1]

I can't do mine at a cashpoint it's like a plastic key thingy.

oh right yeah.

thought maybe it was a card.

we had a key.

there used to be key machines back in the day.

pay in 1 pound coins. :yep

but i think they did away with them. :-(

[GPater11093]

Are you on heat or something tonight?

[hitman_hatton1]

bloody repeat of froch-dirrell now. :roll:

dirrell should of got this.

[GPater11093]

does anyone think the girls in the ad for sheilas wheels are hot?

:rofl

[PrideOfWales]

I just have to write this piece of commentary from the Froch-Dirrell fight:

John Rawling: That's a great punch from Froch! Best punch of the fight!
John Thaxton: Yeah... great... best... yeah... good.

Jono was dire that night!

[Carnage]

does anyone think the girls in the ad for sheilas wheels are hot?

:rofl
:lol::lol::lol:

[GPater11093]

right then lads

Ward UD

too fast

[kosaros]

Kessler MD

Too experienced

[PrideOfWales]

right then lads

Ward UD

too fast

I've haven't seen Ward fight at all but this is definately going to be a stoppage win for Kessler around the 9th.

[hitman_hatton1]

right then lads

Ward UD

too fast

i think kessler will be too strong and hit hard enough to make ward think about commiting too much.

kessler on a pts decision.

116-112 kinda scores.

[hitman_hatton1]

I've haven't seen Ward fight at all but this is definately going to be a stoppage win for Kessler around the 9th.

seen a bit of ward.

be interesting to see how kessler deals with ward's speed.

he's not much of a puncher.

more a speedy in and out boxer. :bbb

[PrideOfWales]

Anyone know what rules we are playing tonight? i.e. The ones that Froch won with or the ones that Haye won with?

[Carnage]

I'm going for Ward UD, I feel it in my bones!!!

[GPater11093]

Boxing is a speed sport. Ward has the speed.

Kessler didnt look as good recently he is open, Ward can get in and out quickly. Kessler is too slow and methodical, i think Ward can throw off his timing also as Ward is a very cleve thinking fighter

but this fight is one for us nerds - a real technical fight

[GazOC]

Kessler.

[foreverleeds]

Kessler TKO Round 10.

Ward will start quickly, but I think Kessler will take over in the 2nd half of the fight and put the pressure on.

[GPater11093]

anyway lads im off to watch it see yas

[PrideOfWales]

Kessler didnt look as good recently he is open, Ward can get in and out quickly. Kessler is too slow and methodical, i think Ward can throw off his timing also as Ward is a very cleve thinking fighter

but this fight is one for us nerds - a real technical fight

Agree that Kessler hasn't looked good recently. Seems like he's much easier to hit these days.

[ishy]

Kessler, points

[JIM KELLY]

any chance primetime fuks up and its free??

[hitman_hatton1]

Boxing is a speed sport. Ward has the speed.

but this fight is one for us nerds - a real technical fight

this is a real acid test night for ward.

i like watching ward fight.

he's got some class moves.

but will it be enough against a good solid hitter and boxer like kessler. :huh

[TFFP]

I'm going for Ward to eek this one out. I've studied him and I know he has certain things that can and will trouble Kessler.

Hopefully I've just been overly pessimistic though.

[Ilesey]

War Kessler!

[PrideOfWales]

God.. that Danish national anthem is awful!

[PrideOfWales]

Ward looks nervous

[nulty]

I'm expecting something special from Kessler here.

[Bodysnatcher]

I caved in and paid for the Primetime stream.

[foreverleeds]

why am i dleayed its just starting the program on mine wtf


Same here.

Havent even seen the fighters yet.

[Bodysnatcher]

I've got Ward. I think he's gonna make Kessler look bad.

[nulty]

Same here.

Havent even seen the fighters yet.

Me too.

[PrideOfWales]

What a punch by Ward!!!!! Shit Kessler looks done!!!

[nulty]

I caved in and paid for the Primetime stream.

Paid? You sell out.

[PrideOfWales]

Wow..... didn't expect that... just wow.

[Bodysnatcher]

Biased as fuck from Showtime. Not that I like Froch.

[nulty]

Wow..... didn't expect that... just wow.

You really are a funny guy.

[Bodysnatcher]

Paid? You sell out.

edit

[Ilesey]

I went to rewatch the start of the Primetime programme and my SKY is telling me because the recording is incomplete I will be charged the full rental price.


What the fuck?

[ishy]

What's the legal stream liek?

[PrideOfWales]

You really are a funny guy.

:blurp

I have actually lost sound though and it's frozen on the fixtures page!! Argh!

[Ilesey]

Now it's frozen.

[TheUzi]

Anyone elses Primetime froze?????

[Bodysnatcher]

I wish there'd been an undercard bout. I like a warm up fight. Hopefully we'll get some build up footage here.

[hitman_hatton1]

yeah mines froze. :roll:

[Unforgiven]

Mine's fcked too

[Ilesey]

AAAAARRRRGGGHHHHH!!!!!

Fucking fix it you cunts.

[Grievesy]

:lol::lol:Fucking Primetime!

[foreverleeds]

mine has froze.

This is an absolute farce.

[PrideOfWales]

Yes... maybe Froch or Fat Mick pulled the plug until they stop dissing him.

[Ilesey]

Fix it. Fix it now.

[safe_pa]

This is a joke. Primetime are shit!

[Bodysnatcher]

Dirrell: "I fought my heart out. I was a true warrior."

Did you fuck! Were you fuck!

You maybe should have won, but you did neither of those things.

[PrideOfWales]

At least I will know these fixtures quite well

[hitman_hatton1]

back now.

[ishy]

:rofl you fuckers paid for it.

[Unforgiven]

Mine's back :lol:

[ed7890]

Dirrell looks like he's stayin positive anyway

[Bodysnatcher]

Your TV screens have frozen? Jesus.

[Grievesy]

We're back. Phew!!

[chrisfinch]

Oh those wacky folks at Primetime:patsch

At least its happened now and not in the middle of the fight.

[Jaiston]

I think that's what you get for the cheap price :happy

[nulty]

:rofl you fuckers paid for it.

Don't lump me in with that lot.

[Bodysnatcher]

To be fair, Dirrell was kind about English fans.

[hitman_hatton1]

Dirrell: "I fought my heart out. I was a true warrior."

Did you fuck! Were you fuck!

You maybe should have won, but you did neither of those things.

if he really thinks he did then he hasn't learned a thing from that experience. :patsch

[Bodysnatcher]

MMA fighters being interviewed? Wtf?

[PrideOfWales]

Fuck "strikeforce" - Let's focus more on Jenn Brown

[ishy]

Fuck "strikeforce" - Let's focus more on Jenn Brown

:yep

[sidthehat]

jenn brown's a superb addition

[Ilesey]

What is this? MMA?

Ghey.

[Carnage]

Whats MMA?

[Bodysnatcher]

I gave Primetime's online stream another chance. It's crap on full screen. Crap.

[chrisfinch]

I'm sorry, have I tuned in to some MMA programme:huh

I thought it was Boxing tonight.

[PrideOfWales]

jenn brown's a superb addition

Showtime's answer to Bunce

[ishy]

I'm sorry, have I tuned in to some MMA programme:huh

I thought it was Boxing tonight.

Nah, Showtime doing some promo :twisted:

[PrideOfWales]

Cris Cyborg... what an amazing name.

[foreverleeds]

I have zero confidence in primetime - if they have the ability to freeze my tv screen BEFORE the fight has started, you just know this is going to happen again during the fight!!

[PrideOfWales]

Thanks Jenn

[Only registered and activated users can see links]

[BamBam]

Kessler all the way here. That blonde bint was quite tasty

[PrideOfWales]

I have zero confidence in primetime - if they have the ability to freeze my tv screen BEFORE the fight has started, you just know this is going to happen again during the fight!!

Give it a rest - I saw Froch-Dirrell and had no problem at all. It will be fine.

[chrisfinch]

Nah, Showtime doing some promo :twisted:

Woops, I was kidding:lol: Must have been short on smilies.

Jenn Brown>>>Buncey:happy

[ishy]

Woops, I was kidding:lol: Must have been short on smilies.

[Bodysnatcher]

Jenn is nice.

But for prize blondes, Poland's Polsat take the prize.

Adamek vs Golota was great - 'cos of the females....

[ed7890]

Is this build up goin to go on all night. Anybody know what time they're expected in the ring?

[Bodysnatcher]

These two guys are so fucking NICE.

They are like the anti-Mayorga.

I was at the Froch fight so i missed Primetime's tv debut.

I'm sure it will be ok. Come on Kessler :bbb

[nulty]

Kessler with ease. Come on Mikkel.

[Bodysnatcher]

Al Bernstein is great. Can't believe HBO never stole him from Showtime.

Kessler vs Abraham will be a WAR!!!

Looking for Kessler to be impressive tonight.

Alright here we go

Here's the classy Jimmy Lennon Jr.

I'm sure "the classy" is his christian name.

[Carnage]

I think I could be a rapper, yeah yeah yo yo yo yeah yeah yo, thats called fuck the bitch ho pimp!

The fuck is Ward coming out to? Sounds like my Mum trying to rap.

[PrideOfWales]

Wardy looks chilled man...

Kessler on his way out, looking focused.

[Carnage]

[Carnage]

:lol::lol:Everyones got a dark side!
Hold on that sounded racist as well!

[ishy]

Hold on that sounded racist as well!


:lol::lol:

Ward looks relaxed, Kessler focussed.

[Carnage]

Can see that the Danes didn't bother making the trip!

[Bodysnatcher]

Kessler looks tense.

[Bodysnatcher]

Those heights are off. Kessler is a shade shorter.

[PrideOfWales]

Here's CLASSY!

[nulty]

Mr Classy doing the full introductions now.

[ishy]

Here's CLASSY!

Fuck yeah!!!

[China_hand_Joe]

60%+ of Yanks favour Ward, 90% of Brits favour Kessler.

90% of Yanks favoured Lacy, 60%+ Brits favoured Calzaghe.

[Carnage]

Kessler is one good looking guy, I mean I'm as straight as they come, but that tattoo is to die for!

[BamBam]

Is it just my stream or does Kessler look a little marked under his left eye

[ishy]

It's Showtime!!!

[PrideOfWales]

60%+ of Yanks favour Ward, 90% of Brits favour Kessler.

90% of Yanks favoured Lacy, 60%+ Brits favoured Calzaghe.

What is the oracle's prediction?

[Rebel-INS]

Kessler is one good looking guy, I mean I'm as straight as they come, but that tattoo is to die for!

What the fuck?

[Bodysnatcher]

I am buzzed for this one. Even more so than Pac vs Cotto.

[PrideOfWales]

Yep it looks like Kessler has swelling to me

[nulty]

Wards0 is going to go. I hope that wasn't his family at ringside because he's getting ktfo tonight.

[Carnage]

What the fuck?
Sorry its late...

[ed7890]

It's Showtime!!!

It's no "Lets get ready to rumble"

[ishy]

Here we go!!

"The great Joe Calzaghe"

[nulty]

It's no "Lets get ready to rumble"

It's better. Buffer tries to hard. Lennon has understated class

[Ischbaad]

Here we go!

[ed7890]

Ya smaller ring

[ishy]

You lot were right about the smaller ring.

[nulty]

Both men agreed to the smaller ring. Interesting

[ishy]

"USA USA USA..." :dead

[nulty]

USA USA, i thought the yanks hated nationality being brought into boxing?

[sap12]

who is the smaller ring better for? It seems like ward..so he can pump that jab all night long

[Ilesey]

Ward started well. Kessler looked a bit tentative but he does start slow in some of his fights.

[Carnage]

1-0 Ward, Kessler starting slow, Ward looking good in and out, but chin is exposed???

[nulty]

10-9 ward

[ishy]

10-9 Ward

[ed7890]

Good round for Ward, but Kessler is walking him down, can see him getting caught on the ropes or in the corner in a couple of rounds

Smaller rings gotta be better for Kessler

[Pug1list]

10-9 ward

[ishy]

"check hook" :lol:

[Unforgiven]

I'm not receiving anything. Fucking bad weather. Cant blame Primetime. Satellite TV is just shit.

[Bodysnatcher]

Ward's holding.

[nulty]

"check hook" :lol:

Were? I being to doubt the check hook exists it's often talked about but.......

[PrideOfWales]

Hmm

[hitman_hatton1]

thought kessler shaded rd 2.

1-1.

[Ilesey]

Ward holding and getting the better of this. Kessler needs to up his game.

[ed7890]

Great finish from ward

[Carnage]

2-0 Ward, good end of the round, can see Kessler taking a few rounds but I'm staying with Ward UD.

[China_hand_Joe]

1-1 on a fair card.

Hometown fighter likely stole the second though.

[Jaiston]

19-19

[PrideOfWales]

ward looking good... kessler not so much

[ishy]

2-0 Ward

[Pug1list]

10-9 kessler, good end to the round ward

[nulty]

1-1

[hitman_hatton1]

[PrideOfWales]

kessler's timing seems off.... ward's movement is good also.

long fight though, ward's burning a lot of energy up here.

[foreverleeds]

Ward 3 rounds up for me.

Kessler has started like Froch did against Dirrell. Walking forward but not throwing much.

Where's the right hand?

[46and0]

Kessler looks like trash so far.

[Carnage]

3-0 Ward, speed is doing it for Ward, but will he slow???

[Ilesey]

3-0 Ward for me. And quite fucking holding!

Come on Kessler!

[China_hand_Joe]

3-0 Ward on at least two judges cards.

Ward is great at holding.

Ward is doin way better that I thought he would, and he's definitely on top so far. More accurate, timing Kessler perfectly, good aggression when he gets the opening.

[Strike]

I picked Kessler by stoppage (late)....

3-0 to Ward. Kessler is looking shit. He's not even active.

[Pug1list]

10-9 ward, kessler still asleep

[Bodysnatcher]

Ward holds constantly.

[ishy]

Kessler hurt!!

[Unforgiven]

My signal died at the opening bell. Pissed off. Shit weather. What the fuck. Going wait another few minutes then off to sleep. SKY are just cunts.

[nulty]

He'll be alright

[Ilesey]

Fucking holding ref!

[Carnage]

Brilliant round for Ward, 4-0 Ward, could Ward take Kessler out?!?!?

[hitman_hatton1]

3-1 ward.

[foreverleeds]

Ward 4 up now.

Kessler needs to settle quickly.

Ward looks impressive.

[chrisfinch]

fookin hell, Ward's the real deal.

[ed7890]

Wow

[ishy]

Too much fucking holding from Ward who leads 4-0 on my card. Kessler cut under the right eye.
