    Elie is a dork and he asks the most ridiculous questions but I can't fault the guy for trying to make a living doing something he loves.

    I think its awesome he gives the fans a look into the gyms of top tier boxers and such but I don't know about anybody else but when training the last thing I would want is some guy shoving a camera in my face and asking a load of silly questions. Once a week or so, fair enough but not everyday! He used to follow Rios around like a lost puppy, the guy couldn't even take a **** in peace without Elie following him to the bog and asking ****** questions. ''Hey Brandon how many sheets of ar5e wiping material you used? Do you have a message for your fans?''

Which is an impressive grind but he is really unprofessional and silly sometimes. Boxers can be unpredictable and when cutting weight downright irritable. It was just a matter of time before he found himself in some sort of conflict.
      What is really remarkable is that Elie made a name and gets hits but asks the same ****** question over and over, who do you like? Pacquiao or Mayweather or wh wins? Pacquiao or Mayweather? same question dude has no boxing knowledge even Joe Goossen called him on it and said Elie should learn about boxing if he plans on covering the sport.

      This dude is one of the laziest journalists ever! he hates reading and hates studying and he can't spell either, have you ever seen his short articles he used to post on AOL fanhouse before? The guy misspelled a lot of words and he would only type up 5 sentences and post his videos, how did he get a job? Also how did he get to **** some of these hot reporter chicks what do they see in him?

        I don't know about that. A lot of these dudes claim an impressive roster of a s s they've tapped when really they're only tapping Manuela de Palma nightly.

          Is there anyone that doesn't have a beef with Sekbach?

            Elie's annoying, don't know why anybody would want him around. Garcia could just upload his own damn vids of his fighters sparring etc, that shit would get good hits. He didn't need Elie for that.

              Every time he says his catchphrase "REportIng" I want to punch him in the face.

                He asks about Mayweather and Pacquiao so he can put their names in the video title, which means more hits, which is apparently all he lives for.

                I do actually like the stuff from Robert Garcia's gym, there are a lot of very good videos from there and the 'Robert Garcia Reality Show' can actually be quite good as well. Garcia seems to regard him as part of the furniture at this stage, and if he doesn't mind Elie being there then I suppose it shouldn't bother us either.

                The questions are truly moronic at times though. 'Hey Kelly, Brandon Rios wears red boxing gloves, what do you think about that?', or one of my personal favourites, where he asked Robert Garcia if his kids were 'undefeated' in Fight Night Champion.

                  At first I just thought rios wanted to be left alone so he could focus on alvarado but even after the fight rios hasnt been in any of ellies videos, so it seems like there is a much deeper reason. I agree he can be very annoying, but some of his vids are good though and he gives alot of exposure to the sport.
