Bilbo's so profound these days
I heard Bilbo snorts meow as of lately, dont do beak no more.
Regarding Valero its sad for his wife, she's a Mother with 2 kids. And as for Valero he can rot in hell. Murdering is the lowest of the low, he wont be getting any sympathy from me. Whether he was drugged up or not when it happened. Apparently he has always been violent and his wife was "Always under the threat of death" from him. Fukking coward.
Yeah this was a sad day in boxing and even worse for the family. I saw the posts that made jokes of the situation and ignored them because the people making the jokes obviously have no heart if they can make light of a tragic situation.

Take a chill pill Daxx. I don't agree with the jokes & the reactions of a lot of people, but the fact is there's nothing we can do about it. People are always going to feel strongly about the issue of murdering women, hell look at what people give Mayweather despite the fact there's no evidence of him actually hitting women other than boxingscene hearsay.
It's just not worth getting worked up about what people say on boxing forums. If anything I find the comments about 'I want to see a film made out of this', 'I wish he'd lived so I could read his book' or 'I really wanted to see him fight Pac' far worse, as they show a total disassociation from the fact that two people have lost their lives.
I'm actually in agreement with all three of those points. Be honest would you boycott the film or the fight if he had lived and it was somehow made?
Probably several thousand people have died since I started writing this reply, many tragically. Just being aware of one doesn't make it any worse really.
And you really can't base whether someone is disassociated from reality on what they post on a Saddo boxing wall.
In psychological terms, you are guilty of making the Fundamental Attribution Error, which is a word used by people like me to sound clever and a know it all.
Well I have been thinking since the news this morning what a great piece of journalism could be made out this. Seriously it doesn't show disconnect to want the story to be explained a bit more. Like it or not, in Venezuela this will be a story of a tragic hero who couldn't get past his own personal demons. A lot can be learned of stories like this, there's no reason why a movie, film, magazine ect. couldn't delve deeper into this without remaining sensitive to what happened.
So who would you pick to play Valero? I think if they wanted to make the audience have sympathy for Edwin Valero his wife needs to be played by Renee Zelwegger.
@Daxx mate, you made me lol at the 'you be exactly the same if you overheard someone at a supermarket. Just in case it happens, it wouldn't be a good idea to go up to total strangers and lambast them, please think first before you do it![]()
I'm also a journalist & like you I want to know more. But, my first reaction to the story was not 'I can't wait to see the movie'. I suspect yours wasn't either Amat, or Bilbo's or most others here. I'm sure weren't also disappointed that you now wouldn't get to read Valero's book about killing his wife because Valero had killed himself. There's a difference between wanting to know more & being crass.
I've heard the stories, this is reportedly a picture of a younger Miles before a night out on the grab (Miles doesn't need to 'pull', da biatches come to him)Originally Posted by ryanman

Valero doesn't deserve much sympathy for killing his wife but what makes me wonder is all the head trauma he had... I am not saying that it is automatically the cause of his behaviors but living closely to somebody who has had a bad head trauma himself, I can assure that it can totally change the character of somebody in the nick of time. Cerebral lesions are a bitch, believe me. IF he did drink and that it did cause even more problems, it totally makes sense as well as cerebral lesions are strengthening the reactions and confusion that somebody would normally have. It would be interesting to know how he was before his brain lesions and after as well as his reaction to alcohol before and after the incident.

That's the way it is, not the way it ends
Now Bilbo we both know how withdrawn from reality I think you are
I just think it's sad that somebody's prime concern on hearing of someone's death is that they don't get to see a film out of it. It doesn't anger me or anything, I just think it's kind of pathetic that is what somebody cares about.
Anyway, quiet hobbit, shouldn't you be posting videos of gangland hits for me to abuse you over?![]()
