    Just got back from Vegas and.....

    I wish I had never gone to that ****. In the arena, it looked like Oscar was letting his little brother beat him up. It looked staged; he was looking at the shots coming and would only brace himself, not trying to hold or actually avoid the shots. That **** looked shady to me. Anyway, I spent a **** load of money, walked away sick, as all the Filipinos in the arena were ******* off with joy. The **** was just sickening. I'll admit, I wanted Manny to win going into the fight, but once you're there, in that environment, you can't help but root for your man. Manny owned the house come fight night. Mexicans were in the minority. All the Mexicans & Chicanos walked away from that mess with a look of disgust on their (our) faces.

    Looking on the bright side though, the event itself was unlike anything I've ever experienced. The weigh in was crazy, crazier than the fight; at least it was more competitive. Fighters were walking around the MGM all weekend, many unrecognized be the common bystander. The highlight of my weekend: Getting **** faced with Ricky Hatton at the Zuri Lounge.

      I have to agree with you on your first paragraph man. The fight was not all that, I loved the fact that the smaller man beat the bigger guy, but each round dint even look 1% competitive, more like a sparring session. I had to get drunk during the fight and after the fight to forget it. At least we wont see mismatch's for a while now.....

      PS: You sound you like you had a good time, you have any photos??

        I called this **** happening. That's how I felt during Pavlik/Hopkins. **** looked real shady. Pavlik sat there and watched punches land on his chin. Don't ever go to a Oscar, Hopkins, Mosley fight ever again. If you liked the atmosphere of this fight, you should've been to the Pac/Marquez 2 fight. Unbelievable intensity in the whole arena. Everyone in that motha was on their feet from the undercards to the end of the night.

                    Are the weigh-ins free and open to the public? That'd be cool.

                    ***** faced with Hatton huh? Dope? Was he just chillin at a bar? Or do you actually know the guy?
