    I'm tired of seeing winning fighters thanking god

    it is really ******. I lose respect for fighters when they start rambling about god and their religion after a win. it's like, I bet you weren't doing that the last time you lost, even though you should've, even though you lost, you should thank god because you are ok...have you ever heard a losing fighter thank god ? no.

    my point? rambling about religion basically lets most people know you generally have a shoe size iq, and are an asshat. take monte barrett for example.

    He gets a nice win over Beck last Friday, what does he do? He thanks god. this is acceptable, however when it came time for him to be interviewed, this is what happened.

    "Monte, we noticed that cut open up on your left eye. Did a punch cause this or a headbutt?"

    Monte: "YaKnowmSayin I'd like to thank jesus, everyone my family and friends etc. (this is acceptable. I expect winners to thank their family and trainers, however, read on.)

    the interviewer pauses, realizes he was ignored, and sort of looks offended, then forces a smile at barrett, just because he's a ***** at heart, and doesn't want to force the question.

    "Monte, when you got cut, did you know it was going to be a TKO loss for you if the fight got stopped? or did you think it would goto the cards?"

    Monte: seemsayin I'd like to thank jesus I am his savoir and this was for him.

    "Monte, did the cut give you any problems whatsoever"

    Monte: Seem'sayin I went in and did well, he motivated me, thats what this man did. he motivated me. DON KING YOU DA BLACK JERRY MCGUIRE THIS MAN GONNA SHOW ME DA MONEY! DON KING DA BLACK JERRY MCGUIRE GONNA SHOW ME DA MONEY!

    it was like the guy didn't speak english, yet he did.. and thats all i have to say about that. i bet the guy interviewing him was like 'what a ****head'

    There's a multi-page thread on this called "You know what I would like to see?" on page 1 of Non-stop boxing...

      When they thank God, what they really mean is that they are thanking Don King.

          Perhaps the fighter thank God for the talent he was given to win the fight!

            I dont believe in asking god for too much help!!

            If boxings part of life's test then wont god get pissed because your always seeking his help?

            There are certain times when a man has to rough it out alone, boxings is one of them.

              Evander Holyfield has got to be the worst with that.

                The Barrett interview was absolutely hilarious that he kept ignoring the reporter. I loved it.

                    Thats just because most of these guys are like ex-cons who have "found" jesus or allah or some BS. I mean Yeah I goto mass every sunday and observe holidays and try and live the christian life. However, man i aint a preist,preacher! SO I DON'T WANT TO HERE SOME ***IN SERMON EVERY TIME SOME have ******ed ****** whopper WINS. These are the same MFs if you look in they're closest have vast criminal records or about 500 bastard kids. Its hillarious as *** and also very hypocritical. Oh well what can you expect! I wonder if monte thanked god when he lost to Sloppy Joe or Wlad the imploder! I bet he didnt then! Don King the black Jerry Mgruire does this ***in ****** relise it's not a real person?
