Attention All Boxers...Please Read (Heart to Heart here)

Post by caldo2025 »

Sure. I'm a blowhard and I honestly can't stand me most of the time but after watching the putrid boxing (Granados, this ain't aimed at you) this weekend, I've really grown tired of some things and it's time that these boxers finally hear it from a lifelong fan.

Can we please stop with the Live Rapping Ringwalk finally and forever? Newsflash....it sounds like absolute shiit. I've never heard a good one. You all look like a bunch of idiots dancing to some drunk guy mumbling on a microphone. I'm not opposed to flashy entrances and i think it could build up the excitement of a big fight if done tastefully but no one likes these rapping idiots on a wireless mic during the ringwalk. Hey Rapper, no one can hear a friggin' word that you're saying. Does Wilder or 50 Cent watch the replay and say "yup, nailed it"? Nope. They know it sucks but they keep on doing it. Enough live musicians of any kind walking in with you boxers and don't ever do a Broner with the Janet Jackson mic attached to your head. That's clearly the worst of the worst.

With England boasting so many world champs now, the average time it takes a boxer to now walk into the ring for a fight is at an all time high. Can we please see something original or cool? Pull a midget out of your shorts or get lowered to the ring by cables like your flying but no more rapping. I beg you.

First amendment says that dummies are allowed to make sounds called rap and to listen to those sounds.

Damn I actually agree about how bad it sounds.
I just mute the tv until I see the idiots stop

Boxing should outlaw elaborate entrances... It’s like the old Westerns when 2 gun fighters are supposed to face off on Main Street at high noon.. They play dramatic music as they show the clock at 10 minutes to noon.. Sweat drips from the brow of the hero as he stares at the clock on the wall and ties his holster to his leg..

He checks his six-shooter again to make sure it’s fully loaded, takes a couple of practice draws and takes a deep breath.. More dramatic music as they switch to the bad guy with a scowl on his face.. He looks at the clock and it’s 5 minutes to noon.. He takes a couple lightning fast practice draws with a confident and cocky smile.

The music starts getting louder, faster, and more dramatic as the bad guy strides out into the middle of Main Street.. The faces of the local citizens are frozen with fear as he loudly calls out to the hero to show his face.. The church bells start tolling steady bongs and reaches 12. No hero appears.. An angry call from the bad guy.. Gasps from the crowd.. Suddenly the hero steps out into the street cool as a cucumber.

As they walk towards each other with their hands ready to draw the music gets louder, deeper, more intense and dramatic.. The gunfight itself is only going to last a split second so they have to do all that.

But in a boxing match the main show is the fight itself.. Fans don’t need dramatic 5-minute ring walks, recording artists, smoke, confetti floating around, and fireworks.. Let's just get the fight going and that should do it.
