the rap game and boxing game are broken

just watched one of the most disappointing Friday Night Fights in recent memory. Also read an article about Lil Wayne in GQ magazine. First the fight: Julio "Baby Face" Garcia 40-2 was supposed to mop up Troy Browing who just cam off knee surgery. Garcia flat out did not show up. Poor Teddy Atlas, the guy is trying to single handily keep boxing alive had to keep apologizing for" baby face". Atlas should have called Garica pussy face and sat octagon side tomorrow night for the BJ Penn Pulver fight. As for little wayne he is another pitchfork approved rapper. The article was not very long but essentially said that Wayne is in fact "the best rapper alive" I am not sure that GQ and pitchfork approval gets you much play on the tour bus, but it let me off the hook for eagerly awaiting "tha carter III"

Friday Night Fights vs. Dizzee Rascal

I just got the new Dizzee Rascal album "Maths + English" and there is a hell of a main event on Friday Night Fights. The similarities exist. Both the fighters and Dizzee Rascal hail from outside the U.S. Lucian Bute is from Canada and Sakio Bika is from Cameroon. All three have been heavily hyped. Dizzee Rascal since his stateside hit "fix up, look sharp" and Bute and Bika are ranked 10th and 5th respectively by ringside magazine. I think the Dizzee Rascal album is really good so far, and it comes pitchfork fork certified so I can play it in my subaru. As for the fighters, Bika like Dizzee may be headed for a breakout year. Bika has gone up to Canada to take on the home town set and Dizzee may be heading for U.S. success.

Tsunamanny Pacquiao

Here is a couple of younger( still active) cats. Fighting out of the Philippines, Manny Pacquiao. Slangin sushi and dope rhymes out of Seattle John Tsunam. Similarities quick delivery.

O.D.T. Old Dirty Tapia

I think that Osiris must be represented by Johnny Tapia. They are both bannanas and looks like Tapia may have a similar future ahead of him. I'm the one man army ason never been tooken out.

Nas = Roy Jones

May 22, 1992 Jones Jr. beats Hopkins for the title. He moves like a rooster and he is close with his dad. April 19, 1994 Nas drops (still not so comfortable with the term "drop" so I'm going south paw with the next sentece... Nas releases Illmatic. Both have decade long great careers.

Prefight

I really like boxing and hip-hop. I would like to go twelve rounds linking some of the best characters of the worlds of hip-hop and boxing. There are so many cool people in each realm. I would like to release a video each month with two similar fighter/rappers. I do not now much about video edting or anything so i will have to learn that stuff. I would like to see some old fight footage and some rad tunes. Art for the sake of art for the sake of having cool things to tell girls. As for story lines, has any hip-hop dispute ended like the "no mas" Leonard v. Duran fight. For example, did Jay-Z and Nas' deal end with a "no mas" from Jay? And which heavy weight fighter would be similar to Biz Markie? I'm thinking George Forman II (grillin george, not the badass george from "when we were kings")
