Dan Rafael: "HBO commentators should STFU during fighter ring entrances"

[SuckaPunch]

from Fat Dan's chat today...

John (Boston): Dan big props to Showtime for shutting up during the pacquiao/mosley ring entrances. It was nice to finally see the highlight videos and entrance music uninterrupted. It really felt like you were there. Hopefully HBO took some notes.

Dan Rafael (12:45 PM): Could not agree more. I was thrilled by that. In fact, after I watched it on my DVR I was so happy about that I called Todd duBoef from Top Rank to tell him since we had been talking about the ring walks before I left Vegas on Sunday. Great, great job by Showtime to let us see AND hear the ringwalks without interruption. My highest appreciation. HBO should take note big time. During ring walks = shut the hell up.

Don't care, I much rather Dan shut the **** up, period.

[ChiTown2Diego]

eh, I could care less either way but whatever. What I'd like to see the networks do is cover the post fight conferences but I know that's asking too much

He says shut the "hell" up. Not STFU.

Anyway, wow, I never even noticed any of this. People make a big deal out of anything.

I really don't care, if I am not pumped for a fight by the time they are walking out that is not going to do it for me.
