Another Exotic Pick from Mr. Moose

Here you go...More Bowl-licious picks from the Moose:

Moose Tracks & Droppings:

Back on the scene with the exotic machine....

The Filipino Killer eats up the malnutrition Strawweight L'Africane Nkosinathi Joyi. Florante Condes is a big-time puncher for a midget and is loaded with power. He's on a 9-0 streak, albeit against dem bums, but there is no way a #6 ranked straw-berry pulls this one off.

Because these guys have no weight, this could go 8-9 rounds so there is a great chance for aerial body fluids here. Condes on top so play:

- A mixture of snot & saliva drippings from the 3rd round on

- A few gas emissions as a result of Killer's stomach bombs (must be heard only by the first row)

- 2cm piece of upper jaw bone being emitted before the end.

Not a big-time play here but certainly enough to fill up the tank for a few years.

MMA Goes Primetime!! Weekend Fight Schedule

What up What Up Little Fighters?? This weekend boxing takes a back seat to the MMA. We have two exciting cards (for different reasons) happening.

First off on Saturday night, 9pm EST on CBS, MMA goes mainstream when EliteXC shows the first ever card on network TV. And of course the big attraction is the main event which pits James Thompson against Kimbo Slice. This is Kimbo's most legit challenge yet however Mr. Thompson does have a glass jaw so I am sure another Kimbo KO is in the making.
Actually since I missed the Classic Lump this week I will throw you one right now starring James Thomspon and Butterbean:


OK so EliteXC is getting the fanfare because they are the first on network TV (take that Dana White) however the better dukes are on Sunday night when the WEC is on Versus. Jens Pulver against the pretty boy Urijah Faber. This one is going to be fast and furious kiddies so don't blink!

OK Larry Lump is out here is the weekend fight schedule for ya. Peace and Corn Grease!

Weekend Boxing Results-Paulie Malignaggi looked HAIRrible

Wake me up please. Larry is shot after a great memorial day weekend. As for the fights, well they were not so hot, at least when it came to boxing. Both Ricky Hatton and Paulie Malignaggi earned victories by decision, but no one looked very impressive. Paulie looked like a complete buffoon actually. The chooch comes out wearing hair extensions. I think he was going for the Italian/Brooklyn/Jamaican look. Anyways his pony tail comes undone half way through the first round and he can't see because his hair is in his face, it actually cost him the round. His corner then uses the glove tape to try and hold it down. That lasts for about 4-5 rounds and then it comes out again and the ref has to call time out. Then, which must be a first in boxing, he gets a full blown haircut in between rounds! Unreal!

Hatton and Malignaggi have already secured a fight date for this November. If they try to put this one on PPV the promoters are going to seriously be disappointed. Hatton by decision in an ugly boring fight...I'm already calling that one.

Here are your weekend fight results:

BOXING:
MANCHESTER, England (AP)—Ricky Hatton, Britain, outpointed Juan Lazcano, Mexico, 12, to retain his IBO light welterweight title; Paulie Malignaggi, Brooklyn, N.Y., outpointed Lovemore N’Dou, Australia, 12, to retain his IBF junior welterweight title; Craig Watson, Britain, outpointed Matthew Hatton, Britain, 12, to win the Commonwealth welterweight title.
NEWCASTLE, Australia (AP)—Sirimongkol Singwancha, Thailand, stopped Chad Bennett, Australia, 1, to retain his PABA light welterweight title.

Weekend Fight Schedule-Ricky Hatton is back-Tito Ortiz is Out-Kimbo Slice countdown has begun

What UPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP FOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLZ?
How y'all livin' today? Beautiful 70 degree day in the northeast and your Boy Larry Lump got a half day at his income generating job before the long Memorial Lump Weekend.
OK so some decent action this weekend in the fight game.
First thing to yap about is Ricky Hatton is back in his first fight since losing to Floyd Mayweather. Even better is that it's being shown on basic cable, the Vs. Network. Ricky should take care of business in front of his hometown, but who does he fight next? Unfortunately it's probably going to be Paulie Malingnaggi who is fighting on the under card. Paulie has zero power so the excitement factor is just not there for me.
In regards to MMA, UFC 84 Ill Will (guess they are running out of tag lines) takes place Saturday night. This will be the last UFC fight for Tito Ortiz who's well documented battle with UFC president Dana White has reached the point of no return. Tito has been fading as a fighter (but he does get to tap Jenna Jamison on a daily basis) so it's no real loss for the UFC.
So only about a week left until Kimbo Slice makes his prime time debut on CBS. He is fighting another cupcake but of course everyone is going to watch and see what the hype is all about. Is Kimbo the Mike Tyson of the new millennium? Seems that way so far.

Here is your weekend schedule. Enjoy:

Moose got a "mainstream" pick, Chris Byrd loses real bad

First off Chris Byrd looked horrible last night and got KO'ed in the 9th. He was slow, weak, and useless. Bottom line is he took off way to much weight. So he was getting blasted as a heavyweight and now as a light heavyweight, it's time to hang up the gloves.

OK so Moose stopped by and gave me a pick for tonight. Here ya go:

Moose goes out on a limb. Hope it doesn't break!

NO exotics this week so the Moose goes with society. Searched far & wide for bums & washed ups but with slim pickens of the cards, I'll go with a Mexican brawl:

Ulises Solisi of Mexico, a 26 year old bomber will defeat the Philippino Glenn Donaire, who can't punch but racks up wins anyway.

Reason for the Solisi win?

- He's a knock-out artist

- He's won at MSG

- Hometown favorite

Donaire fight a lot in the States, but normally at low-level venues. He lost his big shot at the MGM Grand in Vegas.

So, I go with "class"....Solisi for # 25.

Weekend Boxing Schedule-Chris Byrd is a Skinny Minny

ANOTHER rainy crappy Friday in the LumpMeg State. The only fight on this weekends schedule that sparks my Bumpiosity is the Chris Byrd vs. Shaun George fight. The Byrd man as you recall was the slick heavyweight champ for a while before Klitschko destroyed him a few times. Byrd was never a big heavyweight and really had no power but no one wanted to fight him because he was quick, had a great jab, and excellent defense. He wasn't going to knock anyone out and his fights were boring to watch but he made you look bad (which is why he rarely got and big paydays). So now the cat, I mean the Byrd, is going down TWO weight classes to the highly competitive Light Heavyweight division. I mean you got Hopkins, Jones Jr., and Antonio Tarver to deal with. Before I make any judgments I will let Chris get one fight under his belt to see how he looks. This just might be the right division for the Byrd Man to Soar...Larry Lump is one witty ass MO-F...shut ya mouth....

BOXING

TODAY - at Las Vegas (ESPN2) - 10 rounds,light heavyweights: Shaun George (16-2-2, 7 KOs) vs.Chris Byrd (40-4-1, 21 KOs); 8 rounds, superfeatherweights: Koba Gogoladze (20-2, 8 KOs) vs.Ji-Hoon Kim (13-5, 10 KOs).

Classic Lump Wednesday on Thursday-The Ultimate Fighter Snore Fest

Sorry that your boy has been MIA. Too much stuff going on in my world these days. Tomorrow I will come 'atcha with some rants and raves. Enjoy this wacky Lump that I dug up for ya.
On another note does anyone still watch the Ultimate Fighter on Spike TV? I DVR this show every week and man it blows. It is such a cut n paste basic reality show. Show a scene from the house where the guys are talking trash or getting drunk, show the fighters select the next fight, watch each team train, then show the fight. Seven seasons of the same ol crapola.

Anyways enjoy this wacky ass lump!

Weekend Boxing Schedule-Larry got nada

I really got nada for you today. My posts are not really about bringing you boxing news. There are plenty of sites out there with boxing news, plus I have links and the news ticker to keep ya up to date. So I'm only gonna yap when Larry got somethin to say. Samuel Peter will be meeting a Klitschko in October, unfortunately it's the wrong one. He is going to be fighting Vitali who has not fought since 2004. Must be nice to be out of the fight game for almost four years and then get a title shot your first fight back. Puts a lot of credibility into the sport. What do the top 10 "ranked" heavyweights have to say about that one? Well I guess L3 had to to get something off his chest after all.

Here is your weekend boxing schedule:
TODAY - at Vigo, Spain - 12 rounds, flyweights: Omar Andres Narvaez (26-0-2, 16 KOs) vs. Ivan Pozo (28-4-1, 18 KOs).
TODAY - at Atlantic City (ESPN2) - 12 rounds, junior welterweights: Mike Arnaoutis (18-2-2, 9 KOs) vs. Lanardo Tyner (19-0, 11 KOs); 10 rounds, light heavyweights: Elvir Muriqi (35-4, 22 KOs) vs. Omar Sheika (27-8, 13 KO's); 8 rounds, heavyweights: Devin Vargas (15-0, 6 KOs) vs. Dave Brunelli (8-3, 3 KOs).

Classic Lump Wednesday

Your Boy Lx3 is swamped today but my main man Southpaw Sammy was yearning for a good Lump Down. I think you will be pleased with this weeks random selection.
ENJOY!!!

De La Hoya vs. Steve Forbes Final Thoughts-Weekend Fight Recap

OK I didn't do enough homework, should of known Steve Forbes would not go down. That was really the only surprise last night. Oscar easily took care of business in his unanimous decision. I actually gave him every round 120-108 (one of the judges gave the same score as well). So is Oscar ready for the Mayweather rematch? Tough call on that one. First of all the first fight wasn't even that entertaining so Larry Lump Lump is not very pump pumped for the rematch. Oscar's jab did look pretty good, but the only way he is going to beat Floyd is if he keeps using it throughout the whole fight and not just the first 6-7 rounds. I still find it hard to believe De La Hoya is going to get two more fights in this year. Especially if he loses to Floyd, who does he fight next, and why??

Here is the rest of the weekend boxing results:
CARSON, Calif. (AP)—Oscar De La Hoya, Los Angeles, outpointed Steve Forbes, Las Vegas, 12, junior middleweights; Victor Ortiz, Oxnard, Calif., stopped Dairo Esalas, Comombia, 5, junior welterweights.
BADEN-WURTTEMBURG, Germany (AP)—Firat Arslan, Germany, outpointed Darnell Wilson, Takoma Park, Md., 12, to retain his WBA cruiserweight title; Alexander Dimitrenko, Ukraine, stopped Derric Rossy, Puerto Rico, 5, to retain his WBO Intercontinental heavyweight title.
MONTREAL (AP)—Antonin Decarie, Canada, outpointed Brian Camechis, Glouster, Ohio, 12, to win the vacant WBO NABO welterweight title.
BOUCHES-DU-RHONE, France (AP)—Jean Marc Monrose, France, stopped Johny Jensen, Denmark, 1, to win the European cruiserweight title.
CEBU CITY, Philippines (AP)—Bert Batawang, Philippines, stopped Samransak Singmanassak, Thailand, 4, to win the vacant WBO Oriental light flyweight title.

De Lay Hoya vs. Steve Forbes Prediction-Catching up with Iron Mike Tyson-Weekend Boxing Schedule

Oscar De La Hoya's 3 fight farewell tour kicks off tomorrow night in Carson California where he will fight Steve Forbes, another Contender Contestant being fed to the wolves. Listen, anything can happen, just ask Buster Douglas, but this isn't going to be one of those times my friends. Oscar by KO. The "exotic", as Moose would say, is that he does it in under 6 rounds.

Anyone watch E:60 on ESPN Tuesday night? They had a good interview with Iron Mike who is chilling in his million dollar home out in Vegas of all places. This guys owes the government millions of dollars and he still has a dope crib, phat rides, and still runs around with an entourage. The sad part though is he really looks like a defeated man who is fighting demons every day. But man when they showed clips of Mike back in the day it really reminded me what a force he was. That body shot to uppercut combo took out so many fighters, classic stuff. He also said there is no way in hell he is getting back in the ring with Holyfield of anyone else, he is done. Mike was saying that he gets up to 250K just to shake hands and make appearances now and then, not a bad gig. The fact that he is probably still the most popular heavyweight for whatever reasons good or bad shows how weak the heavyweight division is right now.
Here is part of the interview if you missed it:


And last but not least here is your weekend boxing schedule:
TODAY, May 2 - at Santa Ynez, California (Showtime) - 10 rounds, super middleweights: Andre Dirrell (14-0, 9 KOs) vs. Anthony Hanshaw (21-1-1, 14 KOs); 8 rounds, lightweights: Antonio DeMarco (17-1-1, 12 KOs) vs. Juan Castaneda (12-0, 9 KOs).

vs. Darnell Wilson (22-6-3, 19 KOs).
