He's ok, big puncher but little skill.

I hope he stays in for a while though because his wife is smokin 8)

true that... he has very little skill... I have never seen someone wing so many punches that dont connect and win a fight... love seeing the hometown boy. No skill whatsoever.... oh well. brawler, exiting type, though ;)

I don't think so, it looked like the guy he was fighting was outboxing him when he decided to fight and not mess around. He will be outboxed badly one day unfortunately

true :coolclick:

but his record needs to be improved from my original post to 30-2-2 25 by KO

He is strong as an ox, but with limited skills; his nose has been broken more than once and, yes, his wife is easy on the eyes. This young man is not dumb, but should learn how to box or quit. The big timers will all take their toll on his gray matter; you are right, he is a "warrior."


I hope he stays in for a while though because his wife is smokin 8)

I thought he lost...and felt cheated enough to lie to anyone who would listen and say I'm not watching another episode.

I hate it...honestly, I tried to give it another go...but they all cry too much. I'm a sensitive guy & all & I have a 2 year old baby girl & wife that means teh world to me...but these Nancy's cry more than a Mexican Soap Star.

Fwock this mess.

I'm gonna watch the Contender to the end I don't care what anyone says. I started watching it so I'll finish

:coolclick: I feel you. My brother loves it...I on the other hand think that it is a joke.

Just a difference of opnion & if it does good for boxing...so I guess that's all right.

You may consider it a joke but remember that without the editing that these guys actually fought in that ring and risked their lives ok? Don't consider anything boxing a joke, because those are real fights, regardless of the editing its real feuds and real fights there's nothing fake about it.

Balletto is garbage. He makes Mayorga look like a skilled boxer

If Tackie can make Hatton look like Arguello and Whitaker put into one. Then Balleto can look like a skilled boxer if given the right opponent ;)

He was rusty...hadn't fought in like 2 1/2 years....I like him and am pulling for him a little....since my boy Michael Clark lost......damn it....I almost quit watching after that......

I think Ebo Elder will win, even though he looks and sounds like a retarded inbred.

I heard he played the boy with the banjo in Deliverence...

Garbage? That best characterizes your feeble posts which are vacuous, lacking credibility, objectivity and any semblance of class. Please finish your GED forthwith: moreover, seek counseling for your innocuous rambling, as there may be a mental disorder. Garbage? Do you actually mean that to charcaterize Balleto? Shame.

Big Deuce: You are a gentleman and a scholar. Criticize, yes, but support caustic, degrading invectives with some facts. TY. ;)

PRIDE: Well said. Certainly boxing talk can be rough, but to characterize any young man, even with less than brilliant boxing skills, is out of place. "Garbage" should be reserved for some of the politicians in Washington DC.
