        it was a disaster.
        me and a non boxing friend brought some gals over for pizza and beer
        and to watch the wlad/ibragimov.
        now i'm the only one there thats into it. explaining how iggie is a southpaw and maybe that will give wlad problems. all he has to do is stay away from the jab. blah blah blah.when giant wlad started pawing at iggie. and it dragged on and on.

        this gal.i swear... asked if wlad was gay.
        hey even the gals lost interest.
        i didn't get anything that night either.

          its tough getting girls into it. I try to make a date of it sometimes but only for fights that I know will be sure fire hits.

              another ex . when i would watch boxing she'd lean back and stare up at the ceiling. and cover her ears . when i would try to explain things she'd start going blah blah blah...it use to piss me off.

                This is 1 of my lighter missions in life. I'm always lookin to convert casual and nonfans into diehards. I been really successful over the yrs wit this too. If there's a big fight on. no doubt we havin a gatherin of cats to watch it. Friends of friends are usually welcome to spread the influence further. When my homies come around, I throw on the best fights from my collection. They always get hooked, and eventually come to appreciate technical boxing also, not just brawls. And I luv gettin women into it. It's all I watch at my crib, so if they kickin it here they got no choice. It always grows on em too.
