I respect anyone who has the guts to get in the ring and attempt to pursue his/her goal to be a professional fighter. Win or lose it takes a tremendous amount of guts and heart. It takes even more to get back in there after a loss or two, especially early on in your career. So for that much I give you some respect.
On the other hand.
I do not respect anyone who claims to be a professional fighter and makes a mockery of the sport the way you and Charlie Zelenoff did. Your youtube antics were that of immature high school children. The whole "Trailer Park" title thing was a disgrace. What the two of you did was take a serious sport and turn it into a National Lampoon skit.
To sit and call yourself a professional fighter brings even more shame upon yourself. A professional fighter who has even 1% of serious respect for this game would not have participated in the whole charade.
The whole thing was a joke, it is your own fault that people make fun of you world wide. I would get used to it because after seeing how the whole thing played out over the last few months I don't see things looking up for you.
Your not a professional fighter your a professional fraud. I wish you would get stripped of your license and banned for good.
I also would not go around using the fact that I have spent most of my time involved in this sport as a whipping boy for B class fighters.
At least Charlie Zelenoff knows he is a joke, you are even clueless to that.
I actually feel bad for you.
Get over yourself mate how is what Hartley and Zelenoff did on youtube bringing the sport into disrepute and how is it different from any other prefight antics from established stars on tv?
Tyson got jailed for rape, threatened to ass rape a male journalist, told reporters he wanted to eat Lennox Lewis's children, told a female journalist she couldn't talk to him unless she fucked him first and has been caught driving smashed out of his face on cocaine.
Carlos Monzon killed his wife, Diego Coralles and Sugar Ray Robinson both beat up theirs. Ike Ibeabuchi is in jail for rape and for being a complete mentalist. Harry Simon has killed 5 people through reckless driving. Clifford Ettiene is serving 150 years for attempting to shoot a police officer.
Paul Spadafora was jailed for trying to shoot his girlfriend and James Butler famously murdered Max Kellermans brother.
That's just some of the real serious misdemenours carried out by some boxers.
Then you have convicted killers like Don King promoting the sport, and I doubt many of the other promoters are much better, to say nothing of the sanctioning bodies.
Then we got all the crap during the prefight buildups shown on HBO.
I mean honestly, is was the Zelenoff Hartley affair any more cringeworthy or embarrassing than the current state of the Mayweather family?
Look at Roger and Floyd Sr and tell me they don't come from the exact same trailer park as Hartley did?
How about Mayorga and his prefight comments? Hatton calling Floyd a wanker and making obscene gestures so that Sky had to stop broadcasting?
I really fail to see anything that Hartley and Zelenoff have said or done that is not said and done all the time by the biggest boxing superstars, the only difference is the medium, HBO rather than youtube.
I don't think Hartley has done anything wrong. He's a club fighter with a poor record who probably makes next to no money in the sport. If his popularisation on youtube makes him a bit more popular and earns him a few extra bucks why would begrudge him that?
I've personally found the Zelenoff Harltey rivalry to be highly entertaining, rivalling any prefight buildup for any boxing event in recent years.
Yes it may be a guilty pleasure like watching Big Brother or internet porn but virtually all of you hypocrites have watched all the videos and followed the rivalry and now attempt to distance yourself from it all.
The only reason it became as big as it did is because we all wanted to watch so any pontification and sanctimony from users here is just another example of an escort turning up her nose at a brothel worker and calling her a whore
