We are also trying to get results from the RBA Promotions card in Norfolk, VA. We hope to have those for you later today.
Ronald Ellis was a light heavy and Dwarfed Damon Antoine.
ReplyDeleteThis fight should have never been able to take place.
Antoine could have held his own with the weight diffrence against an average fighter that weight and size but not somebody with the talent of Ellis.
Gary you do a great job keeping everyone informed with the local boxing news. Keep up the great work.
ReplyDeleteNo surprise that Wilson got stopped by Roman. I've been saying for years that he's a bum, and he was finally exposed by an under .500 fighter that has fought alot tougher competition. He was only exposed because by looking at Roman's record, he doesn't look like anything, and really he isn't, but he was enough to stop Wilson, who has been given gifts throughout his whole career.
ReplyDeleteWere Da Norfolk VA results yall slackin man
ReplyDeleteThe ones slackin' are those who haven't sent the results to me. I have asked for them.
ReplyDeletewhat kind of crowd did they have at the show
ReplyDeleteTodd is a good guy and a good fighter regardless of how some of u feel. Did he overlook his opponent?? I think so. Was he better than his opponent?? Definitely. But he got caught, he's gonna come back from this with a lesson learned im sure. We'll have to wait and see how he presents himself in the ring next time. U talking shit about someone who suffered a hard defeat in front of family and close friends who traveled far to support like that isn't enough for someone to realize self mistakes. Todd, u got my support and im sure you'll bounce back with some knowledge. But analyze your mistakes in the ring and in the gym first, then correct them
ReplyDeleteCongrats to July and his "Hardwork" team
ReplyDeleteHow about Wilsons fans?
ReplyDeleteThey showed alot of class.
Yeah right!
A couple of them tried to start a fight with me.
If I was one who like to take advantage of somebody I would have a few KO's on my record.
They need to understand that losing and the taunting you get from the other side comes with the territory.
My advice is if you can't take the heat then stay out of the kitchen.
It takes alot of diffrent elements to be special in this sport(especially in the pros)and just because you can sell a few tickets
doesn't make you a better fighter.
Todd Wilson has some talent and seems to be a nice person but some of his fans are a bunch of drunk barflys who may wind up with an attitude adjustment before to long.
Signed
you will know when it happens.
Don't give a shit how much U think he overlooked his opponet
ReplyDeleteHe has no firepower. PERIOD/THE END OF/NOTTA/NONE/.
After the first round his opponet
saw he couldn't possibly hurt him
and started having a field day.
So whoever is writing about a lesson learned.
Take those bagpipes and stick them up your ass and then play a tune with them then.
Have a nice day
Todd is a decent fighter and a very nice guy..but i agree his fans are obnoxious as hell.
ReplyDeleteAnybody know how much ellis and antoine weighed?
ReplyDeleteandrew farmer vs wilson thats all i got to say make it happen scott then todd will have another loss lets see what wilson is all about and learn from that fight good ticket selling fight to
ReplyDeleteAndrew has taken a vacation from the sport for a while and it gives me a much needed rest as well.
ReplyDeleteI think everyone understands our position on a fight with Wilson.
Think everyone should let Wilson catch his breath. He just had a bad night recently.
Peace,Love and Soul my Children.

The one Charlie King calls the hater.
Scott, get a life. You're such a looser.
ReplyDeleteI know ,thank you for reminding me.I forget sometimes.
ReplyDeleteAnd is that a loser with a capital L or have I made it to that level yet.
Do you know how much I really don't care about what you think of me?
To the person asking how many people were at the Winchester show.
