And after 15 minutes of fussing with Time Warner
I finally have access. I promise not to bitch about ESPN3 anymore.

All right, the un-official pre-season of the un-official boxing season is here! I can’t remember the last fight I watched. Seems like Gamboa way back in Sept. Hope Lemieux shows some power.

You didn't miss much
I don’t even know what I’ll put in the fight of the month poll outside of Nishioka-Munroe. Everything I can remember pretty much sucked.

Cazares-Rossel I guess also

It's up on Youtube...

I’ve watched it, just I doubt that most people even know the fight happened. It’s been a shit month of boxing.
Not as bad as the prior Roman Gonzalez fight
A free, legal stream sponsored by the Nicaraguan government, and I was literally one of 40 people worldwide watching.

I actually did catch the Bute replay, you could include that, ha ha, there were some knock downs at least. Brinkley was all bloodied up. Not competitive though.

I probably will
Just because pickings are that slim. There was a fight on the Miranda-Arango undercard that wasn’t bad either, but it also wasn’t good and it only lasted 4 rounds.

Of course
Now ESPN has changed the time back to 10:00 for this.

I’ve made an effort here to see one of my favourite prospects… You’d think ESPN would at least keep to time?
As a side note
I hate the Miami Heat

Kobe and Pao will dispose of them.

It's only 10:03, so at most I have missed some inane crap
But am I the only one whose ESPN3 stream hasn’t kicked on yet?

no, it's running late

its an espn3 thing
same thing happened with the Bute fight
Ah
I actually didn’t catch the Bute fight on time, and I was busy with other stuff while watching Wlad’s fight so I wasn’t overly attentive when it came to the time. In all though, this ESPN3 thing has been pretty good.

OK, this is lame
Heading to Rusko at 11:30, better be over by then.

And Medgoen Singsurat beat a guy who was 0-1
Combined record of his last 7 opponents: 12-4-2. And they’ll probably give him another title shot for it.

I have no sound. Anyone else with this problem?

My sound is lower than could be...
But it’s there. Just barely.

I guess that answers my question

Is it just me, or did everyone else's sound die too?

Refreshing fixed the audio problem for me.

I have the sound up so loud, I'm afraid that if they suddenly fix it, it will blow my speakers

I figured a cross was going to be followed by a hook...
No need for the latter half of it I suppose.

I was just about to alt+tab back to this thread to say I saw it coming too...
That was quite the knockout.

Since First Seeing Lemieux
Early this year, I’ve been increasingly excited about him. He doesn’t just win, he absolutely creams them, usually in very little time.

It's nice to see such great fans up north getting rewarded with another exciting fighter.
They deserve it.
