think about it.
Mayweather hasnt fought someone as strong as Baldomir so their COULD be a knockdown.
Imagine Lampleys call for that? u know lampley has been DYING for a "Down goes Frazier! Down goes Frazier! Down goes Frazier!" moment. ANd this is a good fight to get that famous call in.
If baldomir pulls off the upset, the call for that is gonna be soooo cool. we could really watch one of boxing best announcing jobs this saturday. Hopefully, they dont side with Mayweather for much of the fight
baldy is nor a hard puncher. I don;t know where this came from or why people think he is.
he has 12 kos is something like 60 fights
when he puts in a full training camp for a fight, hes got some nice power behind his punches. i wouldnt call him a power puncher but after destroying gatti and hurting judah badly (gaining a 10-8 round on some cards), its hard to deny that the man can punch pretty good at worst
im not sayin its gonna happen, but stranger things have happened and if it does happen, the call is gonna be really cool for it.
and anyone wanna make a small wager?
i say baldy wins 4 or more rounds on the HBO card. and ill put 5 grand on it. any takers???
people fail to remember Mayweather-Castillo II (you know, the fight where Mayweather's shoulder WASN'T fucked). Mayweather dominated that fight, winning 8-9 rounds easily. Castillo is smaller but light years better than Baldomir. Mayweather wins 10-11 rounds of this one.
FLoyd will break his hands gauranteed on Baldomirs extremely large pumpkin sized cranium. I am also looking forward to how the announcers will react when we see for the first time ever FLoyd dazed and wobbly on his feet.
I know a lot of guys are hoping for a baldy win, but this is going to be a wood shed ass kicking. Mayweather is simply too good for him. Waaay too fast and waaay to slick. Styles make fights and this one is tailor made for a paint job by Mayweather.
Lampley said on the Jim Rome show yesterday that Baldomir's only chance is if Mayweather breaks both hands
lol even he, who calls the fight and works for HBO, wasn't promoting this trash
well he prolly wasnt prepared to make a great call. This time, he prolly has like 10 great lines set aside for all possible outcomes. lol
i think it can, and will, be a greath night for jim lampley and the HBO commentating crew
Charles Barkley was on ESPN talking about basketball and started flipping out when he glanced aside and saw that Roy had been KO'ed on another screen. they kept ignoring him, but he was going on and on about Roy the whole time, NBA playoffs be damned
Did you miss Roy Jones getting KO'ed in 2004?
I think Roy getting KO'ed by Tarver shocked people a lot more than this would because Roy was a celebrity. Lampley already had his moment and didn't do much with it.
