Larry Merchant's Comments

[Nasty Handspeed]

most of you people are real losers, what the hell is karma anyway? is this a boxing site or a site for people with no lives? its not that deep people, discuss boxing or find another way to spend your time, i read alot more than i post and most of the conversations are about points and karma, very strange

I agree 100% with you. I am new here I also post on other sites and I've never seen anything more loserly than the ****sexual karma point system here. I am here to talk boxing not win some populariity contest which is what that loserly karma point system is.

dont know if youre including me in there or not....I just made it plain how I feel about the situation...I wanna talk boxing; not karma. My post pretty much sums that up, I thought.

I get a kick out of Merchant and his ****** comments and analogies.

Before I take the time to even look at that, and not knowing who all is involved, I'll risk their wrath now to say that all this business over the karma is very silly. People threatning others with bad karma just cause they have alot of karma pt's is not what Rick intended, and he posted as much. I just dont think anyone here (other than Rick) has the right...the authority, to say who can be a super member, or what title they can use. We're all just posters on a boxing site, and it use to be all about boxing...now it's about some 'make believe' power, and that's why I've just been sitting back reading some of the crap and its made me change my opinion about alot of people. I'd really rather that not have happened; I liked alot of these people and now have no respect for them. The way it was before, if you had a problem with someones post, you debated it...now some that have alot of karma pt's are sending bad karma just cause they disagree, etc...and it's gotten completely out of control. I thought the whole purpose to this site was to share different information, view and opinions, boxing knowledge, etc...and now some are being penalized for posting those very things.
Is this a boxing forum, or a karma forum?? When you get down to the heart of the matter, what the hell is it all about anyway? I'd rather talk boxing anyday than threaten people with my karma...I hate the karma system and wish Rick had never thought of it. OR, I wish it hadnt gone to some peoples heads (alot of people too!!) and been abused the way it has. I dont care about all that ...I give karma to people for good posts (even if they didnt agree with me) and if I like them, etc....I only send bad karma to those that send it to me now. I use to send it to people that just were totally out of line , trying to piss others off, etc...but I dont even do that anymore. I dont use the thief option anymore either. I'm slowly tring to get back to the reason I checked out this site to begin with...None of my friends like boxing, so I like to find someone.....anyone , I can discuss the sport I love with. Simple as that.

Tracy, I just want to ask you. Did you get the idea that my organization has anything to do with that nonsense karma thing? Because it doesn't. Just want to clarify that because I got the feeling that you thought I created a karma mafia. It's not even close.

Larry Merchant is the man, end of story.

No, no...I havent even seen that thread you mentioned yet! I was referring to alot of the posts in the past few weeks and how it's all come to be about karma instead of boxing. I logged off right after making that post and never saw that thread. I'm trying to avoid those threads that say anything about 'karma' and stick to the boxing! I love the sport...karma pts and imaginary power mean nothing to me. But youre cool....I'd rather not read any of that and change any more opinions that I've had for mo's about people..no, not meaning you!

i think people get way to into this stuff, too much bickering back and forth about everything but boxing, definitly borderline ****sexual

I wanted to clarify that because I did not want my sweet Tracy to think I am a criminal.

I know that most here, hate Merchant because of his derrogatory comments and offensive questions, but can you recall a comment that you liked, agreed with, or thought it was creative. I got one. It was when Trinidad faced Whitaker and Merchant said that Pernell was the kind of boxer who could make Michelle Pfeiffer look bad. I thought it was an almost funny line.

Did you know that Tyson doesn't like Merchant?

NO, no...just busy getting ready for tonight! I've got a busier Sat. night ahead than any downtown hooker At 6pm its UT vs. Auburn in the SEC Champ. game....I'll probably miss the tail end of it cause they almost NEVER end in regulation. Then it's SHO. boxing at 9pm....quick, hurry turn the channel to HBO and catch the Taylor-Joppy fight! So, needless to say I've got alot going on and it's gonna be a late night! My girl will be watching the majority of this with me, so no cursing allowed
