    Actually I was planning on making them regardless of who won.

    Now, I can't. Damn.

        If it went crazy yesterday because of the weigh in for this fight, imagine during the actual fight of Pacquiao vs Cotto?

        It's a good thing they're doing this, though. At least we can log on to the forum.

          Well isn't that a brilliant idea. Stop the site from crashing by shutting it down...

              Yeah...but still. You gotta admit this has the feel of something omenous. Is this the night Mayweather gets exposed...or worse? Something is wrong.

                I doubt it. So what's the reason things are restricted during the fight??
                Whenever there's a quite big fight, the site goes down... yesterday right after the weigh-in the site went really slow and went down a little bit... I think them making it private and stuff will help stop it cause they think it has bigger chance of going down than most fights.

                    it's a lock-in. should be cosy

                    i feel for the poor thread that has to hold all the chatter once the fight starts

                      There is one thing I will admit......Mayweather is great to blog about. He does generate the notoriety. Clever little ****.....
