        Ice,

        serious question for you. I've thought you and Tesse have done an outstanding job making the calls sound fresh in bouts that you and everyone else knew the outcome before you called it. Kind of tough to not sound ****** when asked "if you think a guy might tire in the later rounds"..when we already know he will...etc.

        How much preparation did you do for these? How did you mentally go in the studio when you taped? Just curious becuase again, I think you guys have done a great job and I have thouroughly enjoyed it.
        thanks

          You're the man ICE. Have they offered you any other TV announcing deals because I know you're better than most of the guys out there now. PLEASE send HBO the resume.

            To be TOTALLY honest wth you...I did zero prep for any of those fights...the reason being I just felt like it was my job to tell what EACH guy...SHOULD DO if he wants to win. I felt like I didnt need to know anything about the fight, their styles etc..(most of those fights, believe it or not, I had never seen before) .I just wanted to kind of do it on the fly. I have actually heard rumblings of me possibly getting some even bigger work down the line but nothing is solid at this point

              I did sense a littel premature ejaculation about 3 seconds before Rock landed his big right in the side of LL's face.

              BTW-are you in Vegtas for the fight?

              Looking forwad to Scully v. Maske!

                Actually I remember that moment very well in the studio... I had never seen the fight before so I didnt know the punch was coming...I was in the middle of saying something when it landed and I was surprised enough as to where I said something like "Ohhhhhh!!" LOL

                    Pryor-Arguello 1 is definitely one of my top 5 favorite fights of ALL TIME
