Happy Holidays 2014, a Boxing Poem
By Robert Brizel, Head RCM Boxing Correspondent
Somewhat to the tune of Winter Wonderland
The rings are rolling
The bells are tolling
For who?
Derric Rossy’s ProPlex card got snowed!
There’s lovely weather
For a boxing show with you.
The Klitschkos say hey
Where’s David Haye? Or who?
There’s lovely weather
For a boxing show with you.
From Helenius to Fury, from Jennings to Perez, the scene’s getting wilder
The available heavyweights are NOT getting milder.
See the upsets, Paul Spadafora and Chris John, 96-0 go completely to sand, and for a big
laugher, at 2:59 of the sixth, 36-0 David Rodriguez got nailed by the Ding-A-Ling man!
Yoo hoo folks! Dereck Chisora taught 35-0 Malik Scott that he’s just an ordinary man.
We always wonder what a famous name has left in the tank……
Mandingo gave 20-0 Glen Tapia a marvelous power punch spank!
Pacquiao Pacquiao and no ‘roids
Just lots of money and Floyd
We’re living in a wonderland of snow
Mundine beats Sugar Shane-wants Cotto and Floyd
Floyd wants Khan, so consider Europe’s next big boxing show……
GGG Adama Rubio Murray Martinez Chavez Jr. Stevens and Fletcher
Hopkins Froch Molina Thurman Bradley and Kessler in a merry wonderland…….
There’s winners and losers, Silgado maybe, and it sounds so Cleverly……..
Huck Hernandez Wlodarczyk Jones Makabu Breidis Ofalabi the cruisers are thee.
Jhonny Gonzalez and the WBC won’t fight washed up Abner Mares again for free.
Marcos Rene Maidana kicked Adrien Broner’s butt for sadistic pleasure on TV.
Stars are born, and Olympians like McGirt’s Khytrov who turn pro are made
Fighters like Lebedev, Chambers, Cunningham, and Katsidis shall fade but still get paid.
From Abel Sanchez to Freddie Roach, the trainers of the year are back!
From RIco Hoye to James Kirkland, from David Estrada to Kassim Ouma, everybody’s making a comeback.
Famous names they come and they go, living or dead…..
Shades of Chris Arreola and Ernie Shavers, Juan Manuel Marquez still wants your head.
Andre Ward is getting bored, he’s still going in court
If he finds the time, Sakio Bika might fight him for title and sport.
Every fighter is out there fighting for chow
What’s Golden Boy to do? Everyone wants to fight Seth Mitchell now!
There’s no more Bill Clancy Dundee Steward Gallo Sugar, and who’s to say?
GGG versus Sergio Gabriel Martinez may soon be coming your way,
This lovely poem wishes all boxing fans a happy holiday!
