Thanks man! Shane is looking good cant wait for the upset!
cheers skel really enjoyed that. Mosely's doing his job of talking it up. He ain't winning this fight though.
I'd lost interest in the last few series of this, and I absolutely think it sucks without Floyd Mayweather in it, but with Floyd on the show and and a real live opponent in Mosely it's must watch tv.
I thought this was the best episode since Floyd and Oscar 24/7 where Floyd stole his gear at the press conference and turned up with that chicken.
I think it's going to be a great fight and hopefully a great event. Love him or hate him Floyd makes for great television and knows how to hype a fight.
They even closed out with the Rocky music, awesome stuff.
Not to sure I agree with you mate, I posted the episode eariler I will watch anything boxing related, but it's the same old shit really didnt think it was anything special really apart from a couple of jibes by Mayweather to Mosley which made me chuckle:
"Someone should tell Shane It aint St Patricks day yet"
"Shane Mosley still got a jheri curl, its 2010, what he wake up in a hot tub time machine?"
;D;D
Actually I barely watched the last few series, guys like Hatton, Calzaghe, Pacquiao, Jones Jr and Marquez are about as entertaining as watching an Eastenders omnibus.
Floyd is a character though, and his family and trainers have all become characters in their own rights. It's quality stuff imo and just as good if you hate Floyd and want to see him sparked.
Of what I saw, it was nothing intriguing, so boringly thick, I did some else rather than watch it.
I enjoyed it, but as a Mosley nut-hugger, I'm a little biased. It served its purpose. After watching it, you want to invite Mosley over for dinner and hit Floyd in the head with a bat (either baseball or cricket will do).
I liked how the whole random blood/urine/etc. testing went just fine with no problems whatsoever from both Floyd and Shane :) .
I am so excited about this fight. Come on Shane!!!!!!!!!!
I reckon some people will force themselves to dislike anything Floyd. But I enjoyed it. In fact I like all the episodes of 24/7 and Showtime's 360. I like hearing from the boxers and not just hearing about them. Boxing needs promoting like this.
Mosley is my favorite fighter but I am not being bias when I say this.(Hopefully my thinking isn't clouded anyway) I really feel that Mosley is going to make this fight very close to call. Mosley has very good body strength and if he uses it right he will have Mayweather against the ropes a lot. Mosley can win this fight if he makes it a good old fashion street fight. Just rough and tumble. Its disadvantageous to time Mayweather or try to find a rhythm. Mosley has been itching for this fight. A very determined Mosley is one of the most dangerous fighters today. There will be no old Mosley expect to see Mosley of old. But Mayweather will probably still eke out a decision.
I'll give it a look. Haven't really watch most of the 24/7 shows, not after watching Showtime's Fight Camp 360. Now that's a boxing reality show!
I liked it, but I wish they focused more on the training like they used to.
Floyd-Oscar they really showed how hard they were both training, and really showed a lot of gym time. Unfortunately the gym time seems to go down with every 24/7 that comes out.
I thought it was a decent episode, but mainly because of Mosley. I've seen him in the ring a lot, but I don't really know anything about him as a person outside so on that basis I enjoyed it. The Floyd stuff I can take it or leave it because you pretty much know what you are going to get with him and his antics don't interest me all that much. He's been in too many of these programmes. I'm probably going to be accused of the terrible sin of hating after saying that. The label 'hater' is so gay.
Man im sooo stoked for this fight and watching this has just got me buzzing. Ive been waiting for this match up since i first got into boxing and watching Mosley.
I wish it would have happened a few years earlier but still cmon Shane knock Mayweather arse out!!
A big improvement. I thought the Mayweather/Marquez one was alright, but the problem was the fight was a hard sell to boxing fans. This is the best since Mayweather/Hatton already. I think the Pacquiao/Hatton could have been good, but was let down by over-focusing on the trainers.
Mayweather had some great lines in that.
"Shane says I just fight for money... DUH! I'm supposed to, I'm a prizefighter, I need my prize"
Mosley was good, but as someone who used to worship the guy I was a little disappointed he again didn't really deal with the PED allegations enough. Fight Camp 360 is a bit more preferable in that it actually shows you the fights and the reactions throughout though.
Good post, been looking for this.
Cheers
;D
Good post, the "gerri curl...hot tub time machine" part was hilarious!!!
I think the main reason I'm enjoying this is that it's a fight I'm really hyped for. Mayweather Marquez and Jones Calzaghe were not interesting really as we all knew in advance who would win.
I can't stand Hatton's 'humour' so I just switched him off whereas I love Floyd's trash talking and his daddy and Uncle Roger. For me those two old guys are the best characters in all of boxing.
I laughed out loud when Floyd was ribbing Mosely for dressing like a leprechaun, and seeing his daddy all pimped up in suit was hysterical too.
I think of Uncle Roger and Floyd senior as being almost comic creations like Zelenoff and Kid Thunder, they are just hilarious to me.:D
Not too bad I enjoyed it. Shane is such a genuine nice fella I don't know how you can root againsed him unless you just support unbeaten wankers.
Floyd shouting like Ali.........epic fail:p
So it's Rocky vs Apollo?
Floyd came out with some good lines, especially the - "i'm a prizefighter so need a prize, you fucking dummy"
Floyd took over 5 hours to take a piss? No wonder Pac fucked off the tests. Those drug guys must be on good dough
Shane - "He says I need money, but I'm a partner at Golden Boy, so basically I'm writing his check"
Why does Floyd need seven bodyguards when he's in the gym? I hope that's just for the cameras.
One thing that struck me as very suspicious was when Shane was talking about the USADA style testing about 2/3 through the episode. He seemed very lethargic and was unable to put his words together fluently.
No No not the part where Floyd is berating him at the press conferences. The part where the USADA people are in big bear and Mosley is explaining hwo he doesn't mind the testing. He sounds agitated in the instance you're referring too.
It was great but I hope they focus on Richardson a little more...
Are they going to show these on Sky?
It's shaping up to be the best 24/7 yet. I love floyd but I hope shane beats his ass down. I think he can
Get Cash Flow on the undercard!!
