Comments Thread For: Klitschko-Povetkin: Network Bidding War Could Erupt

[LacedUp]

You consider me a loser,yet you are the one trawling the net looking for photos with slight humour to post on a boxig forum,to in some way 'hit' folk.your words of course.I was gonna take the 'hit' but then I realised not only were you a hypocrite,but most likely a coward who from behind his keyboard is attempting to in some way inflate his own self esteem.way to go,you're on your way up in the world.

And he keeps reaching....

By the way, I didn't say you were a loser. I said you were 'the' loser. As in the loser of the argument/debate/joke whatever you want to call it. You call me a hypocrite (what for?) and a coward because I ***ed around a little bit. ffs mate, come on.

So if I reply I'm a loser of the argument/debate/joke whatever were to call it ?

Would you hold me in higher esteem if I replied using photos with large block capital lettering,with an element of humour of course ?

Absolutely. Because that would show that you actually had humour and can take a punch and give one back.

No reason to become emotional.

Ahh so you're saying HBO is in the habit of getting rid of fighters who are exciting and bring strong ratings, is that it? Use your common sense. Excitement equals ratings, boring doesn't. And who's trying to be a tough guy? Like I said, dry your eye's fairy man!

No, I am saying that I don't know why. HBO also no longer airs Vitali's fight and I cannot answer that question as well. And if the answer is that HBO thought the bros were boring why do they keep airing Bhop fights? Nothing can get as boring as watching Hopkins fight.

With the name calling and your silly threats you are obviously the one that thinks he is a tough guy. Yes I remember you threatened another forum member while posting pics of yourself. Matter of fact one them is now your avatar. Are we supposed to be impressed because you are in a gym working out on a heavy bag?

Hell, I don't live that far from DC and I can put a nice suit on and go down and take a nice pic of myself standing in front of the US Capital or even the White House. But that don't mean that I am a Senator or the freaking President. Matter of fact the only thing it means is that I have a couple photos of myself standing in front of a couple of buildings. So, keep telling yourself that this is only a boxing forum and no really cares about how tough I may or may not be. Because once again no one really gives a 5hit.

Obviously Hopkins brings in higher ratings. And I hate to break it to you, but Vittles isn't all that exciting anymore and his choice of opponents is awful. If it eases the soreness in your ass though, I seldom watch Hopkins fight live either.

Are you just going to blatantly lie? Its you who started the name calling. And please go ahead and show where I made a single threat in this thread. You won't because you can't. And if you want to bring a thread up from years ago that's fine, but be honest about and admit it wasn't me who started it or the threats. Don't be a sniveling little lying fairy man your entire life.

And on and on you go.....blah, blah, blah....blah, blah, blah!!

Are you like 12 years old? I just called it like I see it and for what ever reason you come on the forum and want to be the tough guy with the silly name calling along with the ridiculous comments etc. Usually I excuse it due to immaturity because of possibly someones young age. But I really don't believe that is your problem. Because at least by the looks of your photo you don't look very young. I also see that you are justifying your ridiculous actions because you claim you did not start it. Again that sounds like a 12 year old. So, why don't you grow up and leave the silly name calling to the pre-teens or even the teenagers.

Oh I get it, its ok for you to start the name calling, but not ok for me to do so back. Its ok for you to have an opinion, but I shouldn't be allowed one unless it coincides with yours. You're the one who needs to grow up, kid.

But getting back to boxing.....HBO dropped the Klits because of lack of interest, its all right here. Exciting fighters generate interest no matter where they're from, see GGG, Matthysse, Pac, Duran, Chavez, Trinidad, etc., etc., etc., as proof. Need more proof? This is from ********* July 2010.

HBO Sports President Ross Greenburg has again ripped the Klitschko brothers. IBF/WBO/IBO heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko (54-3, 48 KOs) and WBC heavyweight champion Vitali Klitschko (40-2, 38 KOs) have both have previously fought on the network numerous times and routinely fill huge soccer stadiums when they fight, but Greenburg says there is no longer any interest in them from HBO. “I’m really souring on the heavyweights,” Greenburg was quoted as saying strangely on ESPN’s website, rather than that of his own network. “There doesn’t seem to be any interest in the U.S. and there doesn’t seem to be any heavyweights besides David Haye who would have any juice in challenging the Klitschkos. We’re out of the heavyweight division. We’re not playing in that sandbox right now. It doesn’t make any sense for us. The fights happen over there [in Europe], they’re on tape delay. There is just very little interest in this country.” Greenburg added that HBO definitely will not televise Wladimir Klitschko against unbeaten Teddy Atlas-trained Olympic gold medal winner Alexander Povetkin (19-0, 14 KOs), nor Vitali Klitschko’s next fight unless the opponent is David Haye or Tomacz Adamek. Previously Greenburg had famously stated that the American public can’t tell which brother is which.

Wow they have a lot of posts for a fighter they claim to not like. Obsession?

I called you a hater as a general term such as the opposite of being a nuthugger. It was not meant as a personal attack. I also don't have any issues with any of your opinions. My issue is only with the immature way you react at times. As in the personal attacks that add nothing of value to the conversion. But hay if you are okay with the way you are by all means carry on.

I also don't understand your obsession with the Klit bros. Because when I find something boring I sure as hell don't spend a great deal of time talking about it. I just kind of ignore it. And why? Because I simply find it to be boring.

As for what Mr. Greenburg had to say. He actually sounded a bit pissed off and angry, sort of like you, when talking about the Klit bros. By the way isn't he the same Ross Greenburg who was forced to resign from HBO? Isn't he the one that was alienating promoters and fighters while making bad boxing decisions based on his cozy relationship with Golden Boy? Yup, that is the same guy. Enough said.

See, this is a bunch of BS. If you weren't trying to attack me personally you wouldn't have even have mentioned me negatively to another poster when I hadn't even spoken to you. Now you're deflecting because you know its you who started this crap. Sorry my friend, but that makes you just as immature and a hypocrite on top of that.

Now you're just being judgmental. Does "your way" make it right? And why don't you feel the same way about those who continually overrate and defend the Klits at all costs? Seems to be a hypocritical double standard to bash one and not the other. I guess if it suits your agenda its ok though.

Lol, enough said? The fact is neither HBO or Showtime have been bending over backwards to get the Klits back tells us they don't bring in good numbers. Why were/are fighters like Manny, GGG, Trinidad, Mattysse, Chavez, Duran etc., able to continually bring in American viewers even though a major language barrier? The Answer is excitement. Hate to break it to you my man, but Wlad hasn't been exciting in a decade.
