Gus probably couldn't find Puerto Rico on a world map, he's that fucking dumb.Quote:

Bro you just reminded me of that hilarious FedEx (?) commercial a couple of years ago. You ever see it? Where the office guy is trying to put a push pin on a wall map in front of his boss, and doesn't know where China is. So he fakes falling and rips the map off the wall. Gotta be one of the all-time best commercials.
;D

Gus Johnson seems to get latino names right so when he butchered Puerto Rico, I swear he is just a dumb sob.
Teddy Atlas-he butchers almost every latino name. I wonder why espn doesn't ever have someone just sit down with him and teach him how to say latino names.
Vazquez is not pronounced VAZ- KWEZ De la hoya is not DEE-la-hoya; Marquez is not Mar-KWEZ
with teddy it can be part of his charm. He is only the analyst. But Gus is the blow by blow announcer, he does most of the talking.
As Diane pointed out, tonight's undercard fights will be shown on Showtime Extreme @ 8:00 PM ET or starting about an hour from now this should include:Quote:

Regular Showtime will show the Orlando Salido vs. Juan Manuel Lopez, rematch, beginning somewhere around 10:15 PM ET. I'm pumped for this one, a couple bottles of Bass Ale and perhaps a Guinness with the main event tonight. (another gardening accident)
:alcoholic:
I picked Salido to win... Why I don't know I just went with my gut.
2 variables for me here are:
JuanMa - I think this will be his last fight at FW. I think he is struggling with this weight and will move up.
Salido - Your only as good as your last performance. Let's be honest here he looked bad against what I can only describe a "coming home" fight and he was on the verge of losing.
Yup I think i've seen that one, funny as hell :)Quote:

As far as Gus Johnson, I don't believe he could find Puerto Rico on a World Map if you spotted him the location of the Virgin Islands & Dominican Republic. :-X
Not a bad pick considering what happened the 1st time. I believe Lopez will be more focused this time, (he'd better be) improve his defense, and box his way to a UD. A KO for Lopez would be sweet, but Salido is tough to hurt, if I were Lopez I wouldn't concern myself with a stoppage, if it comes it comes.Quote:

Mtagwa had him in deep trouble late. He has gotten by on being very fucking big for the weight classes he fights in. He allows smaller guys to hit him cleanly.
When he starts fighting bigger guys he is going to get cut down if he doesn't defend much better.
He needs to box more, and show a better defense, if he goes all macho and throws caution to the wind like he did in the 1st fight, he'll get stopped again.Quote:

Alrighty, here we go with SHO-Extreme, "Gerbil" Farhood, Barry Thomkins, calling the undercard which will be: up first Arroyo vs Maldonado.
FWI, "Mikey" Garcia vs. Bernabe Concepcion will be shown along with the main event beginning @ 10:00 PM ET.
Arroyo looks like he's on a level above Maldonado., but Maldon is game.
Score one for Puerto Rico. McWilliams looked great. I scored it a shutout against Maldonado. McWilliams' twin brother McJoe also won his fight, although they didn't televise it here.
McWilliams gonna be a world champ down the line. He's got all the tools.
