I know, it’s getting to be a Uwe Boll lovefest around here but when a director challenges another director to a boxing fight, you better bet that I’m gonna blog about it. And that’s exactly what Boll did to none other than “Transformers”, “Pearl Harbor” and “The Rock” director Michael Bay today. Here’s what the German General said to the Bayanator:
“Hi, here’s Uwe Boll and you see my outfit so you know what’s coming up now basically. Michael Bay responded to my note about him in a very insulting way for me. He said that he doesn’t care about me and this was very insulting because I care about him and I think that with the money he has for his movies, he sucks big time. I think it’s time to meet in the ring actually.
“So it’s my message to Michael Bay, Michael, in between your pool parties in LA or your casting sessions with the strippers you should start training now. And I’m sure you look good, you look thin. I saw you at the Hollywood Film Festival, I think you’re a fit guy and you do like private karate Asia bullshit crap fighting stuff in LA where you think you’re super cool that you do that with your 500 bucks per hour trainer.
“So let’s meet in the ring in September or October. Pay-per-view. Mandalay Bay. Las Vegas. Twelve rounds of boxing. Boll against Bay.
“It’s also independent against the studio system and I think that this day in Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas we will clear it up who is not only the better director who is also able to fight more for that what he wants.
“OK Michael, if you see that message I expect that your people contacting me, it will be all arranged. We even make money with it, and so let’s go for it. Boll against Bay. It’s on.”
Bay was the guy that told Uwe Boll that he was a “sad being”. However, it should be noted that Boll fired first and said that he wasn’t a “fucking retard like Michael Bay”. However again, there are some that will count Bay’ s 1998 film “Armageddon” as the true first firing shot in this war.
Bay has yet to respond to Boll’s challenge. The last time that the “House of the Dead” director challenged someone to a boxing match it was when he invited several of his most vocal online critics to step into the ring. Boll won all four match-ups.
