NEW BOXING RULE, FROM ICE :)

[thgreatsd]

Remember Hamed? Now that guy was extreme.

Did he not have a flying carpet at one of the fights in vegas?

I enjoy all that nonsense as it adds a bit of sparkle and character which I reckon is good for boxing. Its all about entertainment and there is no harm in it I suppose. Nowt wrong with a bit of bravado and if it gets another few folk watching the sport then good. Suppose there is a point though where a line needs drawn but I dont think we have seen it yet!

Haven't seen Judah - Spinks II have you?

I havent actually - i suspect perhaps the magical line I was talking about was crossed!!

I swear it was like 30 minutes long. The whole ime Spinks was coming out side by side hometown rapper Nelly. You figure, you know it's a good way to pump up the St. Louis crowd. But it lasted FOREVER. It got to the point where the commentators were having there own little side convos while this nonsense was happening. Judah was in the ring and he was just looking side to side like wtf is going on. I remember I REALLY wanted to see that fight. I remember I liked Spinks a lot up until that point. I was scrambling to get pizza and coke before the show started. I ended up having seconds and thirds, all while this was going on. It was ludicrous. It did a good job in getting the crowd into a frenzy but the actual fight helped calm them down.

Spinks got beat down

Justice done then! Sounds a bit over the top right enough - I think its a good point about the length of time being potentially hazardous in terms of a boxer cooling down and pulling something. Perhaps a time limit is required for this type of thing. Suppose Spinks didnt try this nonsense again!
