Hello readers (I’m fully aware that there are none of you out there but someone is bound to read this at some stage). My name is not really angry fight fan, but thats what I am; I’m as addicted to fight sports as anyone can get. I’ve been a boxing fan for 10 years and an MMA fan for 3 years (in that 3 years I’ve watched nearly every major fight that was ever televised though). My friends think that I know enough about both sports and that my idea’s are decent enough that I should start writing some crap down, and this is it.
The other reason I decided to write this is that I’m sick of idiots on message boards who think they know everything about the sport (which I don’t claim to do for the record, if someone knows more then me I’ll shut up and listen so I can learn a thing or two) and then try and tell me I’m not a boxing fan when they’re the ones who only follow one fighter. I used to post on numerous other message boards (my identity will remain a secret) but recently my patience wore thin so I thought I’d start ranting at no one with the hopes that people will give a crap about what I have to say.
Just to clear up a few things first. The main thing is that I’m not a professional writer and have never aspired to be, so every now and then I’ll make the odd grammar mistake or put a capital letter where it shouldnt be or leave out a ‘ like I did already in this sentence. Thats just how I am, I’m lazy. I usually can’t be fucked changing things either. Speaking of ‘can’t be fucked’ that brings me to my second point, I swear a lot (I did say I’m angry), if you don’t like it bad luck. No one’s paying me for this so I’ll write it as I want to. Speaking of lazy, sometimes I’ll go weeks without posting (I’ll always try and put my predictions up but sometimes I just can’t be fucked), so don’t go giving me crap for not posting for ages. As I said, no ones paying me, this is purely a hobby, I’ll be spending less time on message boards though so my frustrations will be let out on here instead. Also I should mention that I’m Australian, this should help you understand where I’m coming from with certain things.
When it comes to boxing, I’m very old school. I believe in one champion in each weight division and that until that champion has been beaten he is still the champion unless special circumstances arise. An example of those special circumstances happened in the UFC recently when Sean ‘The Steroid Shark’ Sherk tested positive for steroids. I couldn’t give a shit whether he said he took them or passed a lie detector test, the fact is he had his title stripped because he was found to have cheated. Boxings a messed up sport, which is one of the reasons that I’m angry. There isn’t another sport out there that has 68 guys claiming to be world champions. In most divisions it’s pretty clear cut who the real champion is, in some(like heavyweight) they’re all just as bad as each other (thats not entirely true but until they all fighr each other thats how it is).
Anyway thats enough of an introduction, I hope anyone who reads this enjoys my rants. If you don’t, you can always complain in the comments section and if I can be arsed I’ll argue with you. There’s a good chance I won’t because like I said I’m tired of listening to idiots, but then again I do enjoy a good arguement so I probably will. Peace!
