Great news, great ****en news.

I know most said this countdown would be boring and now they are to eat a little crow.

What, you want a pat on the back or something? It's HBO, for gods sake. They could make a carrot fighting an orange exciting.
But regardless...
I can't wait for the 26th....

Too many people like you talking ****. Theres even a ton of people who say that if Cotto win and they do a 24/7 that it will be very borring cause its Miguel Cotto.

Look it up, people talking **** just like you that don't know what the **** they talking about.

It is what is, people think that you have to have 5 ferraris, flash huge wads of cash and talk **** about your opponents to make you interesting. HBO just showed that a humble, serious fighter that focuses more on boxing than being flashy can be as entertaining if not more.

I bet every boxing fan got pumped with the COUNTDOWN. My wife threw a baby shower at home Today. Everyone was like; "So... are we watching the fight in here next week???" And I mean everyone, men, women and even children. I probably will have over 40 people at my gazeebo that night. Better be a hell of a fight. We will drink and play dominoes until the night sky turns on that special blue color. It will be ****ing great!!!

Aw, man. That sounds really awesome. Over here, it'll only be my father, my mother and my brother.

I miss the old days when everyone would get together.

HBO always does a good job with these countdown shows. I was gonna get this fight anyways, but this makes me not want to wait and wish they were fighting now. It was nice to find out some things about Margarito.

Did you read my first post on this thread? Or was your dumbass so consumed by hatred for me, by my so called HATING on your folks in a different thread?

Who is eating ****ing crow here, dude? Not me. I'm a ****ing carnivore. Ate a fat steak at Ruth Chris's today. Don't believe me? Check my colon in the mourning. Look THAT up.
Naw, you want to take credit for something your ass has NOTHING TO DO WITH.
So pat yourself on the back.
You won. HBO, with all it's editing and producers, couldn't have made it any better.
What, you had a 3 to 1 bet that Cotto vs. Margarito 24/7 would be boring? Did you win?
You see, I watch FIGHTS. I don't care about the ****ing 24/7, the press conferences, the weigh in's, or anything of the sort.
But it seems that YOU do. And you won tonight, Ferocity. Cong****....

Part of the strategy is to let the audience get to know the fighter so you feel a personal connection with them and this increases your desire to want to watch the fight even if it's not likely to be close. For example even a casual boxing fan may have developed a soft spot in his/her heart for Margarito and will now be pulling for him.
