actually.. i know next to nothing about HBO.GO, UVerse or the "trading block" .. i'm so UN-Tech savvy, it's sad man.. *hangs head*
the main reason I'm asking is because I'm gonna be in Italy on my honeymoon during the Perro/Kirkland fight and it's KILLIN ME!!
My fiancee just got a new i-phone and I'm scrambling to try and figure out how i can catch a whole replay the next day on her phone from over there?!?!
oh yeah?? i thought that was only for certain, old "On-Demand" fights.. not fights that were live?
also.. Cotto had a hard time keeping Tony off of him at 147 (loaded gloves or not).. I'm a little worried it's gonna be THAT much harder at Jr. Middle..
we'll see..
I keep thinking about how bad SSm looked against Mayorga before that LAAAST SECOND kayo.. I have a feeling if Berto can throw him off his game a little bit w/ his speed and defense, he can pull this one off.. SD maybe.. 115-113- 115-113- 112-116..
oh and SSM is coming off an entire year layoff..
password..
hey..dont know if you had any luck with the password.. but if you google "cotto clottey pre sale password"..the first hit you get gives you a password that works..i just bought my tickets!!
yeah..im coming up from Philly...will DEF be taking the train!! I've been trying to calculate how much i'm gonna need for beers at, what, 6-7 dollars a piece, from 6:30-11pm?? that sht is gonna break the bank man!! lol
Msg
..just got my tickets..first time ever seeing a fight at MSG..anybody here ever seen a major fight there before? anything i need to know?
i'm in section 126.. they seem like good seats..was hoping yous would have some info on the fights at the garden..
:boxing:
yeah.. i'm actually from Philly..been to NYC a million times and to MSG for concerts and games but never a fight.. i would have never known to get there that early.. thanks!! I was planning drinking in a bar not too far from the garden but i'll make sure i get there early enough.. cant wait to see how crazy the Cotto crowd is.. this is gonna be a real tough fight for him too..
I hope it's Lamps, Larry and Manny on the call that night.that night.. My g/f is hoping for Lampley, Manny...and Max.. ?? lol
HBO is only showing the Cotto fight that night right? Either way, I'm excited to see that Korobov on the undercard..
Man, Clottey is gonna be really hungry for this one.. Miguel may have his hands full.. a new trainer in the mix too??
Think there will be any Clottey fans in the house?? I know Josh is based out of NY but that place just goes NUTS for Cotto!!! I'm curious to see how that goes..
I saw the Cotto/Gomez fight at Boardwalk Hall w/ my boys last summer and it was def weird watching the fight and not being able to hear Lamps call the blows.. lol
actually wasnt too expensive.. the seats seem pretty good and were only 100 bucks each.. im actually taking my girl too..
the whole thing came to 230 w/ tax, ticketmaster fees etc..
i cant wait!!!! i checked not long ago and there were still plenty of good seats available..
good luck bo!
Tijuana Tornado in Ten
:usa1:
The Tornado has been more focused than ever since the PW loss.. Look, 'we alll' know Cotto's beard is suspect. Even though he'll try and box from the outside at first, he'll eventually wear down and get caught. Cotto's a warrior but Tony is not gonna be denied!! After the dust settles in what's gonna be the fight of the year, Antonio knocks out Cotto in the 10th !!
Baya
"How do i know he's never been more focused"? Because your mother AND your sister both told me..and they can't BOTH be wrong..
Maybe becasue he Destroyed every opponent since that loss, just like he's gonna destroy MC..
..and a suspect chin is a suspect chin at ANY weight.
We'll see who was right on 7/26..
Think this would be a great fight!! huge step up for Andre..
Wonder how many, if any, Berto fans would be in the house (MSG) on the eve of the PR day parade??
Think Arum makes it happen???
Lol!
NYSAC: "I know what Bob Arum wants.. and he can go f*ck himself"
HAHAHAHA! I feel so bad for the fans that bought tix already (I was gonna drive up from Philly and buy tickets, myself) but for real? FCUK Bob Arum! When sht like this happens to him, I laugh my a-s off.. Boxing will be so much better off when he is sitting in a rocking chair, shttin in his diaper.
I was there that night too and you're right MSG was poppin !!!
It would deefinitely be more Cotto fans than Berto fans in there.
For yous guys that have been there..How IS the Garden to watch a fight? Not as far as the "excitement factor" but as far as sightlines and being able to get a decent seat/view of the action for around $200?
Ive only been to Boardwalk Hall and it's obviously a much smaller venue..
I live in Philly and I'm thinking about making the trip up for the Cotto fight in June...
Hahaha!
NYSAC: "I know what Bob Arum wants... and he can go fcuk himself"
feel bad for the fans who bought tix ..but Fk Bob Arum.. love when sht like this happens to him.. boxing is gonna be so much better off when he is gone..
As much as I wanna see this fight, I would love nothing more then to have this fight fall apart right in Arums face. I f*ckin hate that old piece of sh*t.
agreed.. i feel bad for the fans who bought tix and made travel plans.. but Fk Bob Arum.. maybe Yuri wants to let the Rios fight 'marinate' for a bit..
i dont get it? the guy is a champion. who should he fight? endar cherry instead or alfonso gomez
Agreed..
It sounds like Berto and his team are game.. and I dont think Cotto's ever ducked anyone so hopefully it gets done..
are they going to cash out on berto already???
seriously, a jump from collazo to cotto is a pretty big jump..
I agree..it IS a big jump.. but WTF..Berto IS a beltholder too..
I think he showed a lot in the Collazo fight.. i'm not saying he'd beat Miguel but I def think he'd hold his own and their styles would make for a great fight..
Cotto's people..
Even the Cotto backers can't honestly think Miguel is gonna Knock Tony out right? ...RIGHT?? I mean, his only chance is to use some of that "improved footwork" he keeps going on about and outpoint him..
If he tries to bang w/ The Tornado..it's all over.. :wave:
