    I have a very strong feeling that Manny is going to get caught bad lunging in while trying to keep up with Floyd. I remember Roach talking about teaching Manny to avoid walking into shots. But, its inevitable when you're that determined to both please the fans and beat your nemesis. Floyd is going to use his legs to lead Manny around the ring, while studying to see what shots are going to connect. Controlling aggression will be the biggest problem for Manny to overcome because it leaves him too open for counters.

      its amazing how much buzz/hype this has gotten with such minimal promotion..just this week, not since PAC-DLH, have i gotten so many texts


      even the food place that we order from for fight parties are jackin up their prices...can't wait
      I hope so to, I think it is more likely to be a better fight now than it was a long time ago. I think their current style will mesh a bit better, and less chance of righty-lefty sillyness.

      Manny will hit Floyd no doubt, and I don't think Manny is going out like a Canelo he will sell out. If a guy is willing to sell out a fight will almost never be dull. IF Floyd didn't just fight a determined guy (it is different stuff though) I would like Manny chances better.

      Thing to worry about is Manny's penchant for touching gloves, but I don't think that would end the fight and would most likely piss Manny off.

        Any room for a Mayweather fan at your party??


        We've got the BIG TV in the basement, but we'll have it playing on other TVs throughout the house. Ordering a whole bunch of wings and pizzas. That's standard for our fight parties. Family, wings, pizza, and boxing. I love it.


        how many people you having over?


        we're projecting 30-40 on saturday and what im thinking is, with such a **** undercard, all the food will be gone before the main event...those dudes wont bother watching Leo vs the guy making popcorn and Lomachenko vs the valet guy

              I find that amount of testing to be excessive (More than once a week during training camp) ..... I hope Roach is joking

                  im still undecided on where to watch the fight.

                  my gf is asian and is a good friend with a filipino family and i wouldnt mind going but if floyds starts to dominate i would hate to be in a room thats all sad... but if manny does great then its all good.

                      It's thursday and I am still not sure where I am going. Pisses me off to have such non boxing friends who really only care about going to the place with the most females.
