Park Pilgrimage I: HDNet Fights Preview
December 15, 2007
So, I finally made it to Dallas. It took a little longer than expected but at least I’m here.
The breaking news coming out of today’s weigh-ins wasn’t that I couldn’t make it. No, the big news coming out of it is that friend of The Park, Tristan Yunker, was 4.25 pounds over the 170-pound limit. Tristan, my man, after our long inspirational talk just a couple of days ago you go out and do something like this? So sad.
Nevertheless, Spratt and Yunker will still get it on at a catch weight of 173 but this is certainly not what a 22-year-old rising star needs on his resume.
Anyhow, since I feel as though JarryPark.com has covered this event quite thoroughly I thought I would put up links to our interviews pertaining to it in this neat little post. They are presented to you in chronological order:
HDNets Fights Press conference #1
Press conference #2 featuring Simon, Mezger, Kennedy and Miller
Remember, we’ll be sitting cageside tomorrow night and will provide a complete (and I mean complete) play-by-play of all the action so make your way back to the Park in a few.
