West Virginia fight promoters put on an annual event called the ‘Rough N’ Rowdy Brawl,’ a boxing showdown for amateurs within a 50-mile radius of whichever city hosts the card. To help stir up buzz for the Brawls, they ask the fighters to record short, to-the-point hype videos about how tough and great they are. Now, if you read those two sentences and decided “hype videos for people within 50 miles of an amateur West Virginia toughman competition are probably a comedy goldmine,” OH MAN, YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY CORRECT.
Meet Bucky Boyd, a 7-foot Welch, WV, gent who feels he was wronged in his previous fight against a guy called The Tree. Important note: this is not pro wrestling.

The absolutely must-watch video is after the jump. Please don’t miss this. I don’t care if you skip past our next 10 Taiwanese Animation video shares and bikini galleries, just make sure you’ve heard Billy Boyd talk, and share it with everyone you’ve ever met.
Thoughts on the video:
– HE HATES THESE CANS.
– I agree with Boyd about his last fight with Tree. It was daffally frook.
– Wait, is he fighting an actual tree?
– I love that he approaches the camera in every single cut.
– I am also slightly concerned with how much Boyd wants Tree on Friday night, and how much he dreams of him.
– “When I hit people … I break bo.”
– Does he have something in his front pocket, or is he just really excited?
– His grape squashing is epic. I love that they included him getting grape juice in his eye. Did you only buy one grape? Was that your one shot to get it right?
