something that seems as simple as finding a date isnt simple either, networks have a limited number of slots and the fight cant be too big or small or it wont fit the card. you think a fight cant be too big? if you want to make money it can. thats just me scratching the surface of my knowledge about the business aspect of things which is extremely limited, there is a lot more going on i dont even
k bros dominating the 90's gave me a good chuckle too. competitive? no doubt. successful? overall, yes. champions at some point? probably. dominate? no way in hell
To think the Klitschko's would dominate the 90's isn't unreasonable imo, I honestly can't think of that many fighters from that time period that would give them a good fight.

FOTNS has nostalgia value for me. But only the first season.
you seem to think that you've either got a better idea of who i am as a poster than i do, and that i'm either lying or wrong when i tell you that i really don't talk much, or even champion andre ward.
if you really follow my posts, you'll know that i play the character of an andre ward fanboy much more than i am an actual fanboy. when i call a boxer "the prince," how serious can i really be?
i'm actually pretty impartial about andre ward, especially regarding his recent inactivity. i'm pretty impartial about most fighters not named jermain taylor.
maybe 5% of my posts concern froch or ward. maybe. there's been a lot of europe vs usa beef since the world cup, so perhaps if you've seen my posting since then you may have a warped view of who NE really is.

what is violence jack?
i am so freaking intrigued by the name
if it's violent, a cartoon, and in japanese, it's generally right up my alley.

Originally posted by Pugilist95 View PostMy point is that the Cold War is nothing more than a cop out seeing as fighters from both sides have been able to make fights against each other. The part about fighters being able to get fights if they want it is actually a quote from a boxer who I am sure would know more about the process of how fights are made than you or me.
To think the Klitschko's would dominate the 90's isn't unreasonable imo, I honestly can't think of that many fighters from that time period that would give them a good fight.
sure if you are the money fighter with a powerhouse promoter and top network backing you getting the fights you want isnt too hard, but thats not the reality for everyone.
as for the klitschkos, lewis and holyfield would beat them both as would bowe during his very brief peak. ibeabuchi, tua, morrison, ruddock and even 90's tyson would have a good chance as well.

I see alot of people saying Porter is overrated. I disagree, I think he's a beast and I also saw someone say Paulie was a cool M'FER and I agree with that eventhough i've never avtually met him, but would like too.
I was never a big Paulie fan until he started commentatin for Showtime eventhough as of late they have gotten extremely biased, I think his boxing knowledge is on point and he's a tough mothe ****er!!!!!!
Also, I think Miguel Cotto is the gretest Puerto Rican boxer of all time!!!!!!
Also, Canelo is better than people think and hasn't even hit his prime yet!
Keith Thurman is a beats!!!!!
People love to hate on Amir Khan and he is beter than people wanna give him credit for and he never backs down from a fight and think he could be a monster at 147.
Lastly, until I see someone beat BHop I'll take him to find a way to beat Kovalev.

It's more in that it actually went to unforgettable levels, I saw a decapitated head get skull fucked, something along those lines so be warned. Earthquake hit, caused humanity to divide into different sectors underground. Not much else needs to be said, it's dope though.
3 Ovas so it's short.
Part 1 Harem Bomber
Part 2 Evil Town
Part 3 Hell's Wind
The dub is good as well, subs are always more informative but you can't go wrong either way.Last edited by Doctor_Tenma; 08-07-2014, 02:07 PM.
