The funniest thing for me is that I'm hispanic, born in Miami, I really don't speak spanish all that well, not as well as english anyways, & when i hear what this guy says it's ****in' ridiculous, if you don't speak spanish you miss more then half of what's being said in a spanish speaking corner, I could do a much better job, & that's not just Torres, I made a thread bashing the translator of the Freitas fight cause he was literally saying the exact opposite of what the corner was telling him. I don't know if they really can't hear what's being said but they're ****in' horrible.

Does anyone remember during Mayorga v. Forrest 1 when Mayorga went back to his corner and Torres translated Mayorga by saying...
"that black guy, he hit hard"
and then after the fight Mayorga said he never said that.
Great ****ing line!Comment

Jerry Olaya is better, but he dosent let the boxer talk, he translates at the same time. TOrres is hilarious though, i like hearing him in the corner, i do speak spanish to me so it dosent matter, but i guess if you dont you want a great translator. But Torres just makes me laugh
I think Morales-Barrera III
"pour some water on my balls"
"We came hear to beat the **** out of him and thats what we are doing"Comment

i can't stand that guy, his voice is annoying and he basically gives misinformation too. i've heard several times where the corner was saying one thing and he was saying another. i also remember a long time ago when he went off on a rant saying all this stuff that the fighter himself didn't even say, even the interviewer was like " did he say all that? " and torres just stood there like yeah, but no.
each time i hear his voice it reminds me of a cat screeching after it's back legs been torn off!Comment

I can't stand the guy either. He always say the same things over and over. I don't think he even tries to translate anything. Fortunately one of the people that I usually see fights with speaks some spanish and he translates if it is importat.Comment

LOL, i remember torres sayin those things in the 3rd fight with barrera and morales, he even said the "pour some water on my balls" line in the 2nd morales v barrera fight also.
and in the 3rd barrera fight with morales, after round 5 or 6, he is in barreras corner, and barreras brother is talkin in spanish, and then you hear torres translate and say something along the lines of:
"you came to give him a beating, and your beating the **** out of him (morales) and thats what we came to do!" LOL.
but sometimes he translates the wrong things, after morales lost his 3rd fight to barrera, larry merchant asked him why he cant let the bad blood go between him and barrera, and morales said something along the lines of "i have a lot of dignity unlike you larry merchant" or something like that...and ray torres just translated morales sayin i have a lot of dignity and made up some other things morales did not say...LOL!!!Comment
