Da Bry GuyTHE BRY GUY NEEDS YOUR HELP.
I am going to start an organization called B.G.N.S. The Bry Guy Needs Support. This is something I believe in strongly. There would be meetings once a week(at the 99 of course). The meetings would be on Sundays and would involve big buds, chipoltes, and trivia. The Bry Guy would allow anyone to be apart of B.G.N.S. There are only three rules:

1. You must be wear your B.G.N.S. t-shirt to all meetings(t-shirt would be given at initiation).

2. Women in the group must hug The Bry Guy to let him know he's appreciated.

3. Men must once and a while acknowledge The Bry Guy, nod and say "good meeting".

Meetings would be full of beer, fun, and of course support for The Bry Guy.

All donations can be sent to:

Jean-Marc Mormeck Cruiserweight champion
CRUISERWEIGHT COULD BE THE NEW HEAVYWEIGHT:
I was thinking about tonights David Tua fight when I realized how small he is. Tua is only 5'9, that's small for a heavyweight. To put it in perspective Tua is 5'9 and Vitali Klitschko is 6'7. That's a massive height advantage. You'll never see that kind of discrepancy in any other weight division. There are those who say Cruiserweight is a joke division, just get rid of it let them fight heavyweight. Light Heavyweight ends at 175lbs. How can a guy with the weight around the 180's really fight someone "listed" at 260. (That would be like me fighting Big Billy.) It can't happen, so people bashing the cruisers can just shut up. Now my plan would involve extending the cruiserweight limit by a few pounds, maybe five to ten. I know some heavyweights are there because they don't want to watch there weight(James Toney). Imagine if some of these lighter heavies tried to make cruiserweight. They would actually be in shape, evenly matched, and still have KO ability. This could be the most exciting division in boxing. I would love to see Jean-Marc Mormeck take on any of lighter heavies at Cruiserweight. Also, this would have a trickle down affect. The out of shape cruisers wouldn't be able to compete and be forced to get down to light heavyweight. Imagine guys like Toney, Tua, Jirov, Brewster, Johnson, and Byrd at a lighter weight.(Toney and Jirov were at there best at cruiserweight.) I would also think more guys at lightheavy would rather jump to cruiserweight than heavyweight. The matchups would be unlimited. Everyone complains about the state of the heavyweight division. Well, we wouldn't even notice it if some of these guys tried to fight at cruiserweight. The Lighter weights are so much more exciting because they know it's about the fights, not the belts. I wish the Fatties would figure this out.

THE CONTENDER BLEW IT!
On the Contender Rematch there were three fights, two questionable decisions, and one big loser. The big loser I'm referring to is boxing. The Contender made people who were not boxing fans interested in the sport. Thanks to boxing once again shooting itself in the foot they've lost a golden opportunity to revive the sport. Well, maybe not revive but at least get some fans back. I know these fighters aren't elite, but aside from the decisions the boxing was pretty entertaining. Let's go through the problems together:

1. Only a moron like myself is going to stay up till 3am and watch boxing. If they couldn't put it on at decent hour move it on ESPN 2. The difference in households can't be that big.

2. What in the hell does Mario Lopez know about boxing? I quess Pauly Shore wasn't available. My mother could've asked more intriging questions. This disapoints me very much, because I thought it was a good idea to have the Friday Night Fights crew cover the event. Teddy Atlas is no Jim Lampley but he's also not Sylvester Stallone.(If you saw the first fight Stallone did the commentating and I think he was watching a different fight).

3. The Ref had no right to stop the fight btween Alfonso Gomez and the Little Dude. I do agree the guy was getting beat up, but he was still throwing bombs and might have landed one. That was the first sign the night would not go well.

4. Anthony Bonsante vs. Jesse Brinkly:
First, I would like to say that I was a Brinkly fan and a Bonsante basher on season one of The Contender. After watching Bonsante take the fight seriously and fight his heart out I've switched sides. I was borderline insulted by the way Brinkly carried himself in the ring, as if he didn't even care to be there. Bonsante out-boxed Brinkly for five straight rounds.(Put simply he beat the crap out of him). In the end a unanimous decision went to Brinkly. This was the worst decision I have ever seen! Brinkly in my opinion did not win 1 second of any round. I was flooded with phone calls asking if I believed what just happened.(When I say flooded I mean 3 people called me, I'm not that popular).

5. Peter Manfredo vs. Sergio Mora:
When this fight came around I knew there would be a bogus decision. I figured however it would go in Peter's favor because so far the other two fights went to fan favorites. Oh, I couldn't have been more wrong. Peter came out like a whole new fighter. He dominated Sergio for the first 4 rounds. When Sergio started to open up in the later rounds it didn't look like anything was landing. He was flashy enough to take rounds five, and eight in my opinion. To my surprise the judges had it the other way around for "The Latin Snake". My boss also thought Sergio won, and he knows boxing like I know competitive jump rope. So the majority decision went the home-town boy. His body language after the fight and before the decision showed he knew he lost even though he said otherwise to Peter.

When The Contender first aired I thought it was great for boxing. I've been a big boxing fan for a while now, but only know a few other hard-core fans. Once The Contender aired people who didn't even like boxing would talk to me about the show, and even showed interest in a few big fights on HBO and Showtime. The sad thing is that not only did The Contender lose some of it's fan-base, but it also turned people off the sport of boxing.

I wish I liked figure skating.

BryanbrennanVS. BzDThe Bryguy vs. Bozo the non-fight fight PPV:
While watching the Jones - Tarver III PPV last night I came up with a great idea. I'm going to challenge Bozo to a fight. I will call it Bryguy vs. Bozo: It's All About Money. I'll charge fifty bucks and pack the under-card with crap.(perhaps a rematch between Tyson and Mcbride). When it comes time to fight there won't be any fighting.(this is so genius) I will have Bozo just clown around and pretend like he's going hit me and I will pretend like I'm scared. Now here's where it gets good. After ten rounds of non-fighting fighting, I'm going to be pretty tired. So in the 11th when it comes time to really put Bozo away I won't be able to. Now right around this time people who paid the fifty bucks are going to feel jipped. So in the post non-fight fight interview I'm going to tell people what a great fight it was and how Bozo is a warrior. If that still doesn't make people feel better I'll tell them it was like a chess match, give Bozo credit for fighting as hard as he did. Then everyone will feel better about putting money in the Bryguy's pocket. This plan is so genius I bet I could make millions.
Do you think Tarver and Jones would buy it?
