After all that hype, this what we get?  Boxing disappoints 99.9% of the time nowadays.   I can’t remember the last time I felt like it was even worth my time, much less pay-per-vew money, to sit through a match.   I’ve said “never” before, but I think I mean it now.  Very sad.   We’re all suckas!   




The highly contested competition to see who will be leading into the ring boxers Oscar De La Hoya and Floyd Mayweather Jr. in their mega-fight tomorrow night has been settled.   With over 50,000 artists vying for the role, two have won.

Representing Mayweather will be none other than rap superstar 50 Cent.   A long time friend of Mayweather, 50 Cent was still required to go through the rigorous process of auditioning and showcasing his “ring entry hype” skills to make the cut.  His “in Da Club” will be beating down on the audience as he walks in sipping Super Soco and Gin out of his over-sized gold chalice.

As for De La Hoya, he couldn’t resist picking 80’s Latino recording artist The Jets as his “ring entry hype” leader.  The band was considered a long-shot for this type of job, but proved worthy going through 5 rounds of auditions.

Rumors and reports to PartMule have it that De La Hoya will enter the arena to the hit Jet’s song of the 80’s “I Got a Crush on You!”.   He’ll then proceed into the ring, plant a big kiss on Floyd, and pronounce that he is coming out of the closet after this fight.   PartMule is not sure if his pronouncement is true, if he is trying to rattle Mayweather, or if Mayweather’s ranting and raving the past weeks leading up to the fight have truly infatuated De La Hoya. 




PartMule is a little behind on the hoopla around Floyd Mayweather Jr., his banter with UFC’s president Dana White, and later challenges to Chuck Liddell, etc.

Apparently, Mayweather has the notion that a boxer can manage himself against a mixed martial artist.  Dude, get real. I find it beyond ridiculous.  Dare I say, in honor of Mike Tyson, ludcrious that a boxer could fight a ultimate fighter.  

“UFC ain’t s—” Mayweather said.  “It ain’t but a fad.  Anyone can put a tattoo on their head and get in a street fight. These are guys who couldn’t make it in boxing. Boxing is the best sport in the world and it’s here to stay. We should put Liddell against a good heavyweight, under Mayweather Promotions. If Chuck wins, then I’ll give him a million dollars out of my own pocket.”

Bro, stop talking. Your IQ drops every time you open your mouth to chew food, much less speak.  You’re on your way to The Boxing Brain Dead Hall of Fame, which is led by Larry Holmes, Leon Spinks, and Thomas “Hit Me in the Head Man” Hearns. Oh yeah, your Pops was recently inducted, but the concern was whether the brain damage was from blows to the head or from blow up the nose (see crack head photo below).  Never was a big De La Hoya fan, but PartMule will become one Cinco De Mayo 2007 in Las Vegas.
