First of all - Showtime is way worse than HBO. The commentators are really awful comparatively speaking.
Did anyone else think the lighting in the taylor fight was terrible?
2nd - It might be because i get ADD sometimes...but did anyone notice that terrible annoying moving light that is on the time counter on the bottom right of the showtime screen. This bright light went back and forth very slowly - it was so damn distracting.
3rd - Talk about a wardrobe malfunction. I was laughing my ass off at AA's boxing shorts. I like watching fights but I was not of fan of seeing AA's asshole and balls in one round. It wasn't just one thing gone wrong, it was 3 - torn in the front, see through, and taped in the back....still delivered the knockout though.
4th - as for the fights, they were entertaining - I must say that I called taylor getting knocked out last round. He is one of my favs but damn it, i freakin knew it. i should have bet some points on it. oh well.
I also had dirrel by 2 rounds - froch was outboxed, and can i say "back of the head, back of the head" as for dirrel, he is quick and somewhat entertaining but i do hate it when boxers run, it is not fun for us fans...and if you run, you will almost always lose decision.
Frochs explanation was incredible in his interview though.
Gus Johnson sucks. I wish they would bring back Steve Albert full time. I always liked him, seems nobody else cared.
Tarver is okay I guess. You guys think he said Crotch on purpose?
Hell yeah. How you can make a thread about hilarious moments without mentioning Tarver calling Froch, "Crotch" and Gus standing there doing his best to hold in his laughter? After Taylor's brutal KO, and Dirrell's robbery, that's about all I was laughing at.
I don't like Gus Johnson. He isn't very objective. He was on Dirrell's jock all night.
I actually do like Gus, but he was loving Dirrell tonight. To me Gus just loves the flashy things and Dirrell was the one landing the flashy punches and doing flashy defence.
He is very excitable but that is why I like he because he is always hyped up, I like his energy
