Re: LHW week 17 fights #35 to 30
Maxim redeems himself by beating Johnson with a broken hand. He panicked in the Crumble bout and quit when he broke his hand, but after being forced to fight again against a much tougher opponent, he rose to the occasion and won anyhow.
We're not quite so ashamed of him now.

DRe: LHW week 17 fights #35 to 30
All bets on the Crumble fight were witheld. No one wins a pot o' gold this go round.
Re: LHW week 17 fights #35 to 30
Well, back to the drawing board for both my charges.....Thoroughly beaten in fights I thought we would win, but such is SIM-life.
Mr Buzz, are you aware that Tunney also fought Czyz this week as well as Stinks? Something not quite right here.....Gene did say that SIM world Frankie Carbo and Blinky Palermo paid him a visit just before his match up with Czyz and suggested he had to go through with the Stinks fight also, as it would prevent any 'bad blood and blood' developing.
This would explain Tunney's meek performance against Stinks. The Commish should be made aware of such individuals and take the necessary precautions to protect the other SIM fighters, precautions that were obviously not afforded to us!

Re: LHW week 17 fights #35 to 30
Nobody was trying too sir, in fact Maxim is very upset and offended at your accusations. We've already agreed to a fight with Johnny Frankham in Week 18, but Maxim is calling out Kid Norfolk in Week 19 for your disrespectful accusations!BoxBuzz wrote:All bets on the Crumble fight were witheld.

Re: LHW week 17 fights #35 to 30
Maxim vs Norfolk? Fight accepted, but your out of your league, GoldenBuzzPromotions does not trifle with the likes of a mom and pop organization such as the popsicle stand of a stable that your running.
Prepare to be humbled.

Please forgive!
Re: LHW week 17 fights #35 to 30
Maxim has already been humbled several times this season, it's nothing new to him. Win or lose at least we'll get a chance to punch your man in the face for your disrespectful comments.BoxBuzz wrote:Maxim vs Norfolk?

Week 19 Maxim vs Norfolk.
I'm confident he'll get by Johnny Frankham next week, since he was able to defeat Johnson with a freshly broken hand. A week's healing time is all he'll need in Simland.
Re: LHW week 17 fights #35 to 30
We can scratch the Czyz fight and Tunney will recover from the Stinks stink. However, Mr Palermo and Carbo may be looking to muscle in on some action.
If you see either of these men anywhere near you stable, please inform the Commish's, who will 'do the right thing'.
