    Oh and before I forget for the main event HBO was awful. They made it seem the fight was a lot closer than what it really was.

    I will say this too. Larry Merchant did the best job tonight in the main event.

    Viva Larry Merchant

    That is all.

      True that. I hate Merchant but he had it right.

      Jim Lampley was basically on his knees for Cotto anytime Cotto did ANYTHING. It was the same in the Ortiz fight too though.

        What the HBO crew did was brain washing the audience and setting the people for the score cards. I said it once and i said againg, until Floyd and Paquio dont fight each other no one is going to win a decision over them.

            Jim Lampley was acting as if Cotto was Barrera, I don't know if he had a flashback tonight or what.

            But, they were on Cotto nuts tonight. I thought they made it closer than what it really was.

              Boxnation was the opposite.

              Very pro Mayweather.

              Bob Sheridan it was. I actually like Bob aswell.

              Their cards were fine but they were all over Mayweather. Constantly praising him.

                Oddly it seemed like Larry Merchant was somewhat pro Floyd tonight. Steward to his credit was acknowledging that most of Cotto punches were missing. But, you could still tell he was rooting for Cotto. Lamps was awful.

                    Floyd is brilliant in all areas except power and he hits hard enough to stop fighters over whelming him , Manny has a punchers chance but I doubt he land one single clean bomb on Floyd and I bet Floyd can take it , he will turn Pac inside out with pure boxing skill , Floyd is just a master genius in that ring .
                    so from 106 to 154 lb weight class is one tough achievement because of the weight pac has jumped? this is the reason your god floyd wont fight manny...

                      I'll have to watch the HBO coverage to hear this

                      I pretty much loathe that broadcasting team.
