COUNTDOWN- 2 Days to Go. Full Recap and EVENT INFO

It's been a rough and winding path to Bromageddon, but its now just around the corner, and the tensions could not be higher. With all of the bouts scheduled, and almost all the fighters settled into a mediated rhythm of practise, the day is setting up to be one filled with blood, sweat and urine. It's now time to have a quick look back over the past couple of weeks, and an even quicker glance toward the future, where bonds may be broken forever.

Almost on the eve of the fight, Callum 'The Ginger Rapscalian' Killarney and William 'Sharkstrike' Jones have shown no sign of letting up on their barrage of abuse to one another. The pair have been no strangers from the media, and have frequently been snapped out enjoying themselves when their attitudes towards one another would suggest otherwise. As recently as last Saturday the dynamic duo were caught facing off with one another inside a London nightclub, having to be separated ironically by fight day judge, Michael Panter.

The S.S & TGR pose pre-fight
As for the verbal threats, we've heard them all before, and now its time for both men to let their fists do the talking come Thursday afternoon. It must be added here, for all those who may have missed the first post, or are just generally slow, the loser of the Main Event of Bromageddon will be beveraging a pint of the victors urine. There will be no apple juice stand ins, no tricks or editing wizadry: anyone who is a paying spectator, will see either Jones or Killarney gulping down hearty amounts of piss. If that's not enough to get you to come along, then the undercard might be able to wet your appetite enough to convince you. (No pun intended.)

The highly anticipated, if not thoroughly unfair match up between the heavyweight Patrick O'Connor and the pixie-man that is Olly Rogers, has been confirmed as the first fight of the day. For fans wishing to see what could quite be the most brutal beating of a man since Nick 'Granddad' White attacked the floor in Salou, the first fight on the undercard will be taking place at approximately 12:45 midday. The gates to the Tring Arena will open between 12:00 and 12:15 for anyone wishing to see this first bloodthirsty spectacle. Rogers, who seems confident in his own abilities to pull off a genuine miracle, is the underdog here. Anyone saying differently has never seen O'Connor.

After a short interval we will resume proceedings with an all Ranger fight. The original pairing of Matt Grange and Harry 'Moody' Brown had to be called off due to an unexpected injury on Grange's part, but he was replaced in exemplary fashion by Oliver France. France, who comes up against mad-dog Moody giving away a massive height advantage, has reportedly been on a ridged training regime since the fight was confirmed. Moody on the other hand, according to a close source, "beat up a mattress for three minutes then said 'fuck this, I need a fag'." Nevertheless, this bout could well go the distance, but then again could end up in an unforgiving knock out. Only time will tell. 

The next fight on the cards is that of Matt 'Matt Green' Green and Tom 'Vidic' Hancox. Another mouth-watering contest, Vidic will concede height and weight against the man dubbed by main eventer William Jones as 'The Bristolian Retard with a belly full of lard', but will under no circumstances be prepared to give anything else. Defeat for Vidic could destroy what little reputation he has, and with Matt Green renowned for his eccentric tales and stories, unless the world wants to hear for the next hundred years how he fought a dragon and then beat Hancox up with his arms down a rabbit hole, its probably within everyone's best interests that Vidic does his job. 

The last fight leading up to the main event sees Sunny 'Situation' Gujadhur face off against the towering Detroy 'The Predicament' Henry. By this point in the day the crowd should well and truly be baying for blood, so expect both men to be under immense pressure, With vicious hooks and powerful jabs, this one looks like it should be decided by a knock-out, though we here at BPTV still don't know which way to call it. 

Then of course, hopefully around 3:00pm we should head toward the main event: The Sharkstrike vs The Ginger Rapscalian, the southerner vs the boy from the midlands. A pint of piss for the loser, eternal glory for the winner, and the fight that made all of Bromageddon possible. This fight ladies and gentlemen, you will tell tales of to your grandchildren. Unless of course you were fighting in previous rounds and have been rendered infertile, which is a serious possibility in the first fight. If for nothing else, if not for charity, if not for the undercard, if not for the sheer entertainment factor, then roll up roll up and see these two rivals fight literally for their reputations and social lives. Bonds will be Broken. 


TICKET PRICES:

Box Seat- An aerial view of our neighbours luxurious garden, and of course the fight. These seats start at £2.50 but the price may rise if the demand is too high as we only have a limited number of seats. Guests will be treated to a gravelly arse courtesy of our roof, and possible frost bite thanks to the atmospheric winds, but will have potentially the best seats in the house. Don't be fooled by the term 'Box Seats', this is not V.I.P. But in effect its the next best thing.

Ringside Seat- A more grounded view of the events. Seats start at £2.00 but once again may be called into a bidding war if demand becomes high enough. Guests will be at the front row of the action, close enough literally to take a punch in the face (this is a serious possibility) and get soaked up in the action, and sweat. These seats are recommended for pregnant women, people with disabilities, or people who literally don't want to miss the fighters getting knocked out punch by punch. 

Standing- The paupers choice. As uni students we expect many of the rif raf to be in this section. Price is £1 only and for that you have the benefit of standing in our shitty, muddy, leaf filled back garden, whilst the cold wraps you in its freezing embrace, and you slowly drift off into a hypothermia-induced sleep. You'll still get to watch the fight though, don't worry. 

Remember, all money is going to the charity Movember so don't try and cheat the system you scumbags, we wouldn't even expect that from Jones. We don't take card, or unfortunately beer, as payment. You must bring cash.

TIMES: 

As previously stated, gates (our front doors) open at 12:00. The first fight of the undercard will commence around 12:45, and then the other fights will go on after a short interval and so on and so on. If you don't want to miss anything then ensure you're there on time, but of course if you only want to see the main event then tip up at whatever time you think is right.

MESSAGE TO FIGHTERS
All fighters must ensure they have a gum-shield, you will not be allowed to fight without one. Apart from that, bring a towel to soak up your bodily fluids, and good luck you crazy bunch. Let Bromageddon commence!

Keep an eye out for the last Face-Off interview which will air tomorrow afternoon/ evening.

COUNTDOWN- 6 Days to Go: UPDATE

Boxing fans everywhere are gearing up for the biggest event of the year, which is now less than a week away. Bromageddon promises to be a sell out at the debuting 'Tring Arena' and has already attracted the attentions of tens of fans. With the recent outbursts from Callum 'The Ginger Rapscalian' Killarney and William 'Sharkstrike' Jones at the forefront of BPTV, its time to have a look at how the event's Undercard is shaping up.

The David and Goliath struggle between the BBA's (Bucktringham Boxing Association) commissioner Patrick 'Frape' O'Connor and Olly 'The Illustrated Blind Solid Silver Bitch' Rogers seems to be in full flow now, with original speculation that the sheer size difference would make the fight impossible, being proved unfounded. Whilst O'Connor remains hell bent on knocking Rogers, who is practically a third of his weight, into the ground and is so confident that he has committed himself to no training at all. Rogers himself on the other hand is clinging onto the notion of being the under dog, with the emphasis being on the under rather than the dog, which could imply he can defend himself. When asked by a fan if was ready for the 'showdown', 'Frape' responded with "Beatdown. You must mean the beatdown."

in a London nightclub
Rogers has managed to surprise many quarters with his optimism. He released this statement to BPTV reporters earlier: "A lot of people call my a psycho, a nutter, a headcase... But there's a lot more to my game than just hitting people. I mean, its all well and good being passionate, but you gotta know how to control it." He then went on to add, "Will I win? You trying to fucking wind me up?" 

In other news, the heavyweight match-up between Harry 'Moody' Brown and Matt 'No Name' Grange was forced to a complete halt as Grange suffered a deep gash in his finger at a house party in an unknown location. Sources close to the fighter said he was trying to "be a gent" and open a bottle of wine. Instead another challenger has stepped forward to face Brown, who is known for his wild temper. Come Thursday 29th, The  Ginger Rapscalian's fellow brummy Oliver France will now step into the ring, even though he is conceding a good few inches in height. He has yet to comment on his decision. 

Perhaps the biggest news of the day however is the speculation running rife about one more possible contest being added to the undercard  If the rumour mill is to be believed then Saajan 'Joey' Suman and Paul 'Baby P' Burgess have penned a deal to fight at Bromageddon, with Suman commenting "that fat shit I'll knock him out, bet on me playa." If this latest addition does come to fruition, it will complete a fight card with six bouts and will surely be yet another mouth-watering clash, with rude boy Burgess surely wanting to silence the dim-witted Essex man. 
Eye of the Tiger: Saajan 'Joey' Suman might feature at Bromageddon after a late entry.

Camp Sharkstrike- "I will sue"

With little over a week to go until Bromageddon, William 'Sharkstrike' Jones has sensationally hit out at the media, namely BPTV, branding them as libellous and stating that he isn't afraid to sue for the way he has been portrayed in recent interviews.

I'm a Boozer: Jones proves a point as he's snapped in the VIP lounge of a club;
the media had previously stated that he did not drink.
Jones, who is widely regarded as the underdog for the bout, was quoted in saying "I'm going to fucking sue, they said that I didn't drink 24/7. That's libel." Its unclear how long it will take Mr. Jones to realise that when something potentially defamatory is spoken, it is in fact slander, not libel, but no doubt all media outlets are now quaking in their boots at the thought of the Sharstrike bringing legal action against them, even if his claims are slightly absurd.

The incident in question is related to Jones's opponent, The Ginger Rapscalian's first one on one interview with the press, in which a question was raised about his excessive drinking habits. What followed was a statement from the interviewer, Michael Panter, which highlighted the fact that Jones is known for his long withdrawals from alcohol. Surely when concerning a fighter in the build up to the biggest event of his life, this would be considered a complement, right? William Jones in his ultimate wisdom thinks otherwise.

Punching above his weight: A drunk Jones causes trouble in a club.


The silver-spooned southerner has already threatened to completely block interactions with BPTV, therefore rendering himself isolated from any fans he might have. He was also quoted in saying "I will call off the fight. I don't need this, it needs me." So far we're unaware how serious these specific ramblings are, but with Bromageddon just around the corner, and the majority of the paying fans baying for blood, it looks to be in Jones's best interests to ensure that he is stepping into the ring, even if it is to get knocked straight out of it.

 Aggression flares as he confronts a cushion
Coming away from speculation about potential court cases, Jones hasn't exactly been on the straight and narrow in terms of his personal preparation. Known for his potty-mouth, it seems that he's not content with waiting until Thursday 29th to fight someone, being snapped in a number of photos venting his aggression inside a nightclub. One photo shows him aiming a punch at a member of the public, whilst another shows him throwing blows at a cushion. If Sharkstrike's attitude towards inanimate objects is anything to go by, Callum Killarney might have something to think about come fight day. Then again, maybe not.

Camp Sharkstrike- Interview


The first interview from Camp Sharkstrike as Will Jones talks one on one with BPTV, discussing his love for drugs and booze, his hatred of minors and why 'The Ginger Rapscalian' doesn't have a chance. Viewer discretion is strongly advised.

Camp Rapscalian- Interview



It's finally here. The interview you have all been waiting for from Camp Rapscalian has hit the web. Here TGR discusses his training techniques, his motive and why come 29th Novemeber, he's going to knock the Sharkstrike out. All footage courtesy of BPTV. 

Monday, 12 November 2012

The official fight poster for 'Bromageddon' was released yesterday as the countdown continues. William 'Sharkstrike' Jones vs Callum 'The Ginger Rapscalian' Killarney, only at the Tring Arena.

The realisation of a boxing masterclass finally dawned yesterday as the official fight poster for 'Bromageddon' was released to the general public. Along with the update, both fighters secured their chosen managers, in a day where the preparations for the bout got well and truly underway. Whilst The Ginger Rapscalian has chosen to go for a more raw and aggressive option in the experienced northern head of Nick White, William 'Sharkstrike' Jones opted for a slightly more professional choice in hiring the under 19's Bright Heavyweight Champion to guide him through his training. Owen Panter looks set to join team Sharkstrike, and will undoubtedly bring some tactical advantages to the camp, despite the fact that Jones seems hell bent on not doing a scrap of training. In a short outburst earlier on today he was quoted in saying "It's all or nothing for me. I'm going to go to knock him out in the first round, if that doesn't happen I'm pretty fucked." 

As if the main event wasn't already enthralling enough, the undercard was also finalised yesterday evening, throwing up some very interesting contests in the process. It reads as follows.

Fight 1- Patrick 'Frape' O'Connor vs Olly 'The Illustrated Blind Solid Silver Bitch' Rogers
Who wouldn't want to see an 18 stone man fight a child? The answer is no one. The first fight of the day is a controversial bout between a walking and talking tank in the form of O'Connor, and Rogers, who could quite easily have been cast as Bilbo Baggins in the new 'Hobbit' film. One of the most talked about match ups of the day, the opener promises to bring fireworks to an already action packed line up. With 'Frape's' size and stature, one deft hook could put and end to the fight as early as the first bell, but if Rogers can avoid being smashed into the ground for long enough, speed may become an ally. Verdict- The boxing equivalent of a bear chasing a goat around a small room. Expect to see Rogers running for his conciousness for the duration.


Fight 2- Detroy 'The Predicament' Henry vs Sunny 'Situation' Gujadhur
One of Dos all-Ranger fights, the second bout of the day will be contested by possibly the two most technically gifted fighters on the card. That doesn't say much, but both of these men have experience with gloves on, and if size is anything to go by, this fight should pack some weight behind it. With 'The Predicament' having an obvious height advantage standing well over 6ft tall, 'Situation' will be forced to work in order to get beyond the long reach. With both guys probably capable of producing flash-knockouts this one might just be the toughest to call. Verdict- Two big rugby guys, one small space and the intent to punch the living day lights out of each other. This one ends in a knock-out.


Fight 3- Matt 'Matt Green' Green vs Tom 'Vidic' Hancox
'The Battle of the West Country' throws together two Spartans in the third fight of the day. If Green can ensure that he doesn't manage to kill a member of the audience in his walk in to the ring, this bout will be an interesting one. With both fighters well up for knocking each other sparko, it could be a brawl from the off. Matt Green has the height and weight advantage from all that west country cider, but if we're honest, he's twice as likely to knock himself out as he is to floor his opponent. 'Vidic' on the other hand won't want to be beaten by a man known as 'Pvt. Bullshit' and will be doing everything in his power to try and prevent such an occurrence  Verdict- An explosive first round, with a number of calamitous accidents from Green's corner. A tight one that will probably go down to decision, but Vidic gets the nod purely based on stamina. 

Fight 4- Matt (No Nickname Yet) Grange vs Harry 'Moody' Brown
Everyone knows the score with these two. They're both big guys, they live with each other, and they will want nothing more than to get one over on each other. Do not be surprised to see a slug fest that goes right to the last in this one ladies and gents. With 'Moody' already having been compared to a pikey, he might well bring some raw aggression to the ring, but Grange stands just as tall, and will under no circumstances be ready to concede any ground. Another all-rugby bout that has the potential to be fiercely competitive. The only problem will be separating them at the end of the rounds. Verdict- With both men so determined not to be knocked out, this one goes to decision. Expect a bloody battle.

With potentially one more space on the undercard, it remains to be seen whether or not there will be anymore mouth watering match-ups. But do not worry, you get what you pay for, and with 'Bromageddon' that means the very best of friends going hell for leather over a number of rounds where the only way out is if you're knocked out. Exciting, I know.

FIGHT COUNTDOWN- 18 Days to go. SCANDAL HITS

"Without the right training and preparation, no fighter can ever go on to achieve his true potential inside or outside the ring." - unknown (made-up)

You wouldn't be condemned for thinking that with the fight dubbed 'Bromageddon' having got the definite all clear, the much hyped pairing of William 'Sharkstrike' Jones and Callum 'The Ginger Rapscalian' Killarney would have perhaps heeded to those words and buckled down into an intense training regime. You wouldn't be condemned, but you would be completely wrong. With the blockbuster event having now been given a date of November 29th, its less than 3 weeks until the pair meet inside the ring to set aside their differences and quite literally beat the piss out of one another. As promised, the media team have been keeping tags on both fighter's camps to ensure that nothing goes un-documented. It seems though, that rather than hit the gym and begin to learn the basics of how to actually fight another man, both Sharkstrike and TGR are deciding to extend their breaks from their last fights to at least another couple of days, because 21 years isn't enough.
The Ginger Rapscalian tried to fend off our cameras
as we caught him stuffing his face with Blueberry muffins.

First off, The Ginger Rapscalian caused a McScandal when he was papped in Mcdonalds drinking a full fat milkshake earlier on today. The fiery Brummy has been the more openly confident of the two, but even so, a diet of fast food and muffins doesn't exactly promote complete faith for a man who was willing to state "I actually don't know if I can take a punch." As if that wasn't bad enough, Killarney tried to physically push the media team's cameras out of the way when he was snapped tucking into a blueberry muffin only hours after announcing the bout was going to take place. Whether or not the lively remarks and boyish insults are coming from a man who is genuinely pleased with the state of his body, or a cover up for someone shitting his already soiled pants, we have yet to find out.
McDickhead- Killarney is caught wolfing down
a meal in Mcdonalds, despite having only two
and a half weeks to condition his body.


Things aren't so sweet on the other side of the ring either, as William 'Sharkstrike' Jones, fresh from practically admitting that he knows nothing about physical contact unless it involves a girl laying on her back, was snapped by an unknown photographer looking slightly worse for wear. Perhaps the most alarming aspect of the image though is the fact that rather than spending his time promoting the fight or getting ready to go five rounds against a fierce rival, he has frolicked around with only booze and drugs for company. Earlier on today the picture surfaced, revealing Jones, who appears to be passed out, surrounded by medication and an empty bottle of alcohol. He has yet to comment on the picture, but if his actions towards the media thus far are anything to go by, you can expect him to maintain silence. 
Training hard- Jones sleeps off what appears to be a raging hangover as way
of getting himself mentally ready to face The Ginger Rapscalian on November 29th. 

On a brighter note, the bout titled 'BROMAGEDDON' seems to have found serious popularity with the general public. Whether this is because of their avid love for boxing or because they can't wait to see Killarney or Jones get knocked out cold and then have to beverage urine, isn't completely clear, but already as many as four box seat tickets have been sold, with the promise of many more to come.

To conclude, both men seem to be absolutely jack all to prepare for their fight, but the fact that the promotional picture will be uploaded later, might prove something of a stimulus.

BROMAGEDDON COUNTDOWN- FIGHT ANNOUNCED

It was announced earlier today that the long anticipated mega-showdown between silver spooned fighter Will Jones and uncouth midlands brawler Callum Killarney, will go ahead later this month. The pair, who have a running history of brash encounters, have announced to finally square off in the ring, with the loser set to forfeit his dignity by way of polishing off a pint of the victors urine.

Callum, affectionately known as 'the Ginger Rapscalian,' will concede three inches in height but believes it will not be an issue. Meanwhile his opponent, William 'Sharkstrike' Jones has already gone on record with his thoughts, citing "I want to see if he can really knock me out, I'm sick of this big man talk whenever he gets drunk." In retaliation, Killarney held no secrets as to how he would prepare for the bout, stating "Honestly, I'm not going to wank until the fight."

Now for a bit of background on the volatile pairing, as the two come from completely different cultural backgrounds. Whilst Jones has confessed to having "never punched anyone" in his life, Killarney appears to be the more experienced of the two, making sure Jones was aware "I broke someone's nose once, but it was by accident."

The camps of both fighters also appear to be at polar opposites in terms of how much they are willing to release to the press, with tight lipped 'Sharkstrike' refusing to speak to the media until he has "put his promotional team together." The Ginger Rapscalian on the other hand was more than comfortable with answering a few questions. When asked how he felt about the match-up he replied simply with "I'm quietly confident." Before then quickly adding, "I'm going to knock him out, and then tea-bag him."

With the bout scheduled by the BBA (Bucktringham Boxing Association) and set to take place in the previously un-used Tring Arena, which holds a capacity of almost three hundred, the fight is set to raise money for the end of Movember, with the obvious bonus of seeing the two slug it out over 5 three minute rounds until one of them is knocked out. The commissioner of the BBA, Patrick O' Connor had this to say when asked why it was these boxers that were thrust together; "well, because that little ginger prick is gonna knock the shit out of that wanker. It's going to go down in history. It will be better than the Battle of the Shatcave. Ginger is going to knock the fuck out of him, first round in the first thirty seconds."

Early signs suggest that it will be a £1 fee for spectators coming to watch, with all the money going to charity for men's testicular cancer. Keep tuning in to this blog for all the updates as the media team take you through the trash talk and childish banter, all the way up to the event itself, which promises to be an all time great.

Whether its to see Will get his lights smashed out of his head, or to see the look on Callum's face when he's necking a pint of posh piss, this ladies and gents, will be a spectacle you won't want to miss.
