Program Reminder: The bout begins shortly on Sun News Network.
Update: Watching the pre-game show, I must say that Ezra’s colour commentary is surprisingly even handed.

Will there will be a pile of fuddle duddle on the floor?
Trudeau is a girly-boy ! He’ll cry if he has to shave his hair !
I’m staying at a hotel in red deer tonight because I’m here for a minor hockey tourney, so I’m watching sun tv for the first time on tv ( as opposed to the computer)
I must say that Ezra’s colour commentary is surprisingly even handed.
Right, he’s a complete idiot no matter one’s political perspective. And he’s the smart one. Sheesh.
I like Ezra, i do…but it’s painful to watch Brian and Ezra…and to be honest, the rest of the broadcast. It’s so amateurish and biased I can take it seriously.
It isn’t ESPN, but give them credit for airing the event. I can’t help but think, Trudeau is gonna gain a lot of credibility, even if he loses.
Reading the Sunfight hashtag, I can’t help but thinking that if half of those idiots were reading the same comments about the CBC or Huff Post, they wouldn’t understand the irony.
I can’t get SunTV, even online.
So what happened?!
Love Ezra and Brian also, but yeah.. wish they would tone it down a little and cover more of the event.
Agree with you mark. This two hour pre-fight babble is painful to listen to.
The main event is just about to get underway. I don’t get Sun news either so I’m hoping SDA Matt will be posting video asap.
Round 1 goes to brazeau
First round Brazz. Second round the `Turd. OH!
The Turd did it.. Brazz had no stamina!
@boots
Relax it is for pure entertainment what are they supposed to talk aboUt . They are news broadcasters not sports broadcasters they don’t know a lick about actuall boxing or stats so they go with what they know.
Tender won by a land slide brazaeu gased and that’s that.
Un-believable!! What happened to Brazeau!?
Trudeau wasted brazaeu lol.
So is this part of the strategy of making the young prince the presumptive next leader of the coalition?
I think Brazeau’s gonna do some harm to himself.
Well, that went over about as well as Ezra’s weinie roast/ teabagging love in. I predict crickets on this thread.
He really ran out of breath fast…
What is to be expected is that for the next few days this is all the liberals will be talking about.
Also expect the leader of the opposition to be a bit put out that he’ll be out of the spot light.
And that is a lesson to all you kids out there, don’t ignore your cardio!!!!
Pretty weak performance…..
When I was young fellow, I was a first string defensive end on a double champion-ship football team.. End of season I went into boxing, and I was in good shape. My football coach was a fitness monster.Boxing fitness is a whole different world.I almost passed out. I certainly have respect for these people can take blows and plod around with their hands up. Trust me it is hard, hard work..
Disappointing….
No physical stamina!
It does go to show who spends their time at work legislating and who has the free time to get themselves in better shape.
Brazeau should get out of the office more often like the Shiny Pony does.
I’m gonna be politically incorrect here. I’ve worked with Native boxers, and fought against them, for years. Sometimes they’re warriors, but 90% of the time, they quit. It’s always the skinny ones who do well.
“Ya nevah got me down J, Ya nevah got me down!”
Lots of fun! To be honest, I’m not really suprised at the outcome.
I knew Trudeau’s size and reach would easily compensate for PB’s power.
Didn’t know he’d have Brazeau backpeddling so quick with those jabs though.
Great fight. Congrats to both boxers.
Brazeau **completely** gassed out after about one minute. As in, barely able to move. Surprising.
I feel bad for the guy. He looked completely humiliated.
On the plus side, we’re going to be hearing about the Trudeau victory for the next, oh, forty or fifty years.
Get ready for the media party’s paeans to the fighting Trudeau spirit…
Ah HAHAHAHAHA!!!
Also, of course they are amateurish, ass-hats, because they are ..ta-da… amateurs at sports,boxing, etc.. But you Libs watched didn`t you. Clowns… You can go back to watching Mouch-elle, and Obummer now.
Hope they do this again next year. It was exciting, just wished it lasted longer.
Oh well. Life goes on. Personally I would have liked to see Trudeau unconscious in the 1st round, as would many, many others. I also wanted the Yankees to win the World Series, the Riders to win the Grey Cup and the Habs to at least make the playoffs. None of these events took place and I’m none the worse for wear.
Now if the media would just report this in the same manner they would have reported a Brazeau victory, life will go on. Unfortunately I expect a circus for the next few weeks anyway.
Indian gonna get scalped this time. heh
Does this mean liberals will quit trying to take fighting out of hockey now?
And in case you missed the fight, you can catch the replay here
Best tweet: “Conservatives console themselves with booze and another 3.5 years of a majority government”
There is a lesson here and lets hope it sinks in.
The PCs in Alberta are suffering from arrogance.
For the last few days regardless of what the organizers of the fight intended, that we where exhibiting the symptoms of superiority. No matter the contest, we should never take our competitors for granted, nor should we presume the outcome is pre-ordained.
That attitude is what gets you where you don’t want to be.
Consider the lesson learned.
That aside, even though the young prince won this match, I still think he would be a disaster as PM.
Coach: “Sometimes they’re warriors, but 90% of the time, they quit.”
Maybe. I agree with your first post – he just ran out of puff.
Congrats to Trudeau.
I was going to tell Davenport that gloating is heartless and in poor taste. Then I thought of Olbermann.
Not overly happy with the result, but wonder what Brazeau is now going to do with his ass…. after it was so clearly handed to him?
Congrats to both of them! They didn’t have to put it on the line and I’m sure it was a record breaker. My politics was on Brazeu but my money was on Trudeau.
Coach, Brazeau didn’t quit, he just had nothing left in the tank. One adrenaline burst, and then…pfffft…
Horrible strategy on his part. You see the same thing occasionally – well, very occasionally – in professional boxing, when one fighter who thinks he’s about to finish the other guy goes apechip and then, when he can’t finish the guy, can barely stand or hold up his arms – which is a bad spot to be in when you’re in a boxing ring.
To the libs out there looking at this as a revival of trudeamania, you might want to do something about his recent outbursts on Quebec separatism.
Yeah, it will be saved for a potential campaign ad, count on it.
Last comment I’ll make on this thread.
Will Justin be making a trip to Caledonia soon?
EBD- In case you don’t know this, I predicted this very outcome. I’ve been in this sport for 3 decades, and after awhile, you learn to recognize patterns. There are many ways to “quit” in boxing. The easiest is to turtle, and wait for the referee. It only takes 6 unanswered punches for an 8 count.
That was hilarious!! Good for the son of turd… he was ready to go the distance and he won. Brazeau is a chump… he wasn’t prepared to fight for 6 minutes and he got it handed to him… no cardio and ill prepared to go the distance. It gave me a good laugh though. Congrats to Turdo jr he came prepared to fight and knocked Braz senseless. Over 2 hundred thousand dollars raised too. My stomach hurts from laughing!
Who would have thought Trudeau would have taken the (literal) upper-hand (or is it upper cut)?
The reach and the endurance made the difference.
The money went to a good cause.
That is how I spent my Human Achievement Hour.
Coach, I’m a lifelong boxing fan, but I defer to your firsthand knowledge and experience.
Hope Kate forgives me for going slightly OT here, but I want to pick your brains for a second: 1) Who is the best boxer you’ve seen in your lifetime, and 2) who do you think is the best boxer fighting today?
Davenport >
“Ah HAHAHAHAHA!!!”
It’s funny because that’s the way many of us feel 🙂
Sun News was able to publicize itself and air plenty of Liberal/ CBC dirty laundry tonight at Justin Trudeau’s expense.
I couldn’t imagine the many thousands of people getting their first exposure to Sun News and some of their break through “Politically Incorrect” coverage after so many decades of Liberal censorship and CBC leftist propaganda.
This was a huge win for Conservatism. Thank You Shiny Pony for the use of your last name to promote a better informed Canada.
