Thread: Jim Ross calling Juarez vs Alvarado on Fox. Holy Hell wtf?!

I had to do a huge double take...Rocky Juarez getting another title fight is bad enough but a 'wrastlin commentator on the mic for a Golden Boy card...you cannot make this stuff up. Poor guy looks like he is about to have a heart attack

Great crowd at Fort Bliss, def doing it for a raucous military crowd. Airing on Fox 1 now

Main "event" is Rene Alvarado 20-2 (14) vs the Rocky 9 Lives Juarez 29-10 -1

Army Amateur Alexis love beats a 17 yr old in opener

GBP must have put this card together at some Garage sale, over at the 'make me an offer' old paper back book table off to the side.

Keandre Gibson 9-0-1 (4) takes on John Nater 13-5 (10) 8 rounds welterweights. Don't blink..

Gibson is winning. Has a very sharp fast jab but does pose too much...reacting in traps. Thinking if he stepped up he'd dictate and end it

I blinked and Gibson ends it with a brutal body shot that Nater turn his back and stay on the canvas!

In a stand by Ryan Karl in pro debut vs Wilbert Mitchell 1-10...holyhell welterweights. Ya know its bad when they don't even reference your record. Karl looks like Rowdy Welch or Richie Cunningham

Mitchell has no idea here and shouldn't be a tv ring

Smoger late on the stoppage and massacre ends in 2nd...Jim Ross in full WWE mode yelling "Cowboy Karl ride em cowboy"...wow.

Nothing but respect as they final toll ten count Matthew Saad Muhammad. Safe to say its a crowd who know respect and loss on a different scale...absolute silence.

I just turned it out now... and this does sound weird...... JR is probably a fairly good comentator if you can get past the wwf stigma... I cant though....

Yeh, I mean commentators have trained for event and calls be it a tractor pull or game of footy, but this one through me off So far he's actually not near as over the top as a Renallo for example. Little bit cheese ball, but not outrageous

Juarez and Alvarado at the bell. Juarez is already getting tagged on ropes.

I'm just waiting for jerry the king to start talking about the corona girls puppies :S..

I'm on alvarados side for this one, dont know either of these fighters so I'm hoping the nicaraguan wins !

Alvarado is really pasting him from outside but does take a good left hook for his troubles, Juarez looks slow motion and a guy who should have been thinking career change. All kidding aside a case where the worse thing for him long term is to actually win this..that right hand can't miss him

Hmmm, good ol' J.R. from Oklahoma, I can already hear him:

"Neither of these guys played high school football.

It'll be a real slobber-knocker!

Oh my God, Good God almighty!

As God is my witness, he is broken in half !!!

Would somebody stop the damn match?!!

These two men gave you everything in their body, they gave you of their soul here tonight.

JUAREZ ! JUAREZ ! JUAREZ ! "

alvardo is called alvarez now :S

oh wait he is back to alvarado now

Pretty fun fight I think, alvarado seems to be getting the better of it but juarez gets in some good shots every so often... I am just casually watching though so I am not even trying to score it... thanks to the op for putting up notice of this fight!n good watching for monday night

Ross has mentioned BBQ sauce 3 times tonight ... and he does market some

Smoger real indecisive as Alvarado gets hit in the nuts. By Juarez...shocker. He has to know he has zero zip nata friends on this stage, Alvarado needs to stick to long boxing. Ross with a "smell what the Rock is cooking"....ok get him off like a bad comic at the Apollo, that was baaadddd Have never seen Alvarado that I recall but has ability just needs to stop falling in to his wheel house

Juarez is really coming back into it.. I noticed he was getting in a few clean and unclean body shots earlier one maybe they are addding up now.. good fight, no idea who is ahead though( I also drank beer though S


I actually liked the rock is cooking stuff, it's jr he's a wrasslin guy, that was fairly funny.. getting his the guys name wrong was amatuer stuff though which jr should be better at :S.. as for the bbq stuff, maybe jr should only be allowed to call fights in texas and oklahoma :S
