I bet oscar vs manny will double the lesnar vs couture fights numbers
Lesnar Couture isn't a huge fight for real MMA fans, they are just billing it as that to make it seem bigger than it is
there is no reason MMA and boxing can't co exsist, they draw from different audiences and those that moved from boxing to MMA usually watch both not one exclusively.
The only "Sport" hurting from MMA is WWE (sport lol)
Thank ****ing God for some intelligence in this thread
I would love to see Pacman win this one, and he's the one I'm going to be rooting for... however, I don't really see that happening (as much as I want it to)
I think De la Hoya UD12 Pacman
Chad Dawson, Joe Calzaghe, and all time Kostya Tszyu. Boy did he punish some of my favorites but the man was a beast. Also Pernell Whitaker, although he is an acquired taste.
That's how I feel about Floyd, I hate the fact that he hasn't fought all who I wanted him to fight and that he retired early, but I still like him on and off.
I agree that a prime Toney would put a working on Calzaghe, and the Montell Griffin comment was just stupid. Roy Jones lost to Griffin yet he has accomplished more than Calzaghe can hope to
thats exactly what my point was
if im wrestling with a girl and she says shes gonna whoop me... and i say... if u whoop me ill give u my car.... that certainly doesnt mean im less confident or subliminally thinking im going to lose...
so by roy saying joes gonna have to kill me to beat me... i dont think hes even entertaining the thought of losing
I understand what your saying but this is no way anything like the comment Roy Jones made to Joe Calzaghe. Comparing Calzaghe to a girl that you are going to wrestle doesn't exactly compare in my eyes. I think Jones is being smart, knows he is the underdog, knows that there is a chance he will lose, and is ready to do anything in his power not to make that happen.
Roy Jones Jr KO9 Joe Calzaghe =P
Hence my comment about going to a bar. Pooling your other poor ass friends together and buy a good ppv. If you can afford internet you can afford 1 or 2 good ppv's a year.
You ever been poor, young (I'm 19, check the age), and livei n the middle of bumb**** nowhere before? (Find Weekstown, NJ on a map, then tell me how close the nearest bar is)
Also, Mayweather-Marquez wouldn't be my first choice if I'm only getting 1 or 2 PPV's a year.
People being too cheap to buy this PPV offends me. Like; I get if you want to watch a lot of fights on streams as opposed to paying. I pay for maybe 1 or 2 fights a year. How can you call yourself a boxing fan and not guarantee yourself a good way to see this fight?
Whether it be a paid stream, buying the fight, or going to a bar to watch it. Support your sport... Floyd has to cover his debts somehow.
You ever been poor before?
I drool at the thought of this fight.
I'm from the Atlantic City area so of course (even though I voted for Diego, I can't make up my mind) I would be rooting for Gatti. Chico probably takes it due to more skill and more power, but I think Prime Gatti's heart is too much for him to get stopped easily. Either Chico UD or a very late ref stoppage.
man what they did was so ****ed up. fuking assholes look how that jimmy rollings kid ended up.

this is pretty disturbing.
It's Billy Collins....
I'm giving Margo the benefit of the doubt until this investigation us finished. If he's guilty, well shit I used to be a huge fan of his.... not anymore...
I had it 114-113 Berto.
That is waaaay to close for either side to call robbery in my eyes, but the fight could easily have gone either way.
116-111 was BS though...
Dariusz Michalczewski, Nigel Benn, Chris Eubank, Gerald McClellan, Joe Calzaghe....
I dont believe he ducked any of them myself, but thats what people say...
Oh and a B-Hop rematch
Either your Gamboa himself or his brother/cousin/relative...
Tell gamboa or tell yourself that if you are ever in the Jersey City/NYC area, to PM me details and I will spar him full contact until one of us is knocked out. No bullshit rant on my behalf...
Nuff' said hoss
Yeah, i got that impression as well :rolleyes:
