        Love George Foreman! Dude said it best that counter punchers don't like to fight. You could see he kinda doesn't like Floyd.

                Just finished watching this, and I thought it was great. All the predictions are fair and the analysis is great from all those perspectives. It is hard to argue with the pro Floyd comments and hard to argue with the pro Manny comments. I thought it was cool.

                I have to say though that of all the times I have tried to predict how this fight goes I have never thought of what Foreman said; That Floyd will lose early rounds and despite finishing strong will not be able to catch up. Could be a good call from Big George.

                Also like Hopkins prediction too, that the first half will be where the fight is, and after that Floyd will have stamped out the fire towards the end and win a close one. Also a fair call.

                Interesting calls from respectable characters that know way better than us...Some guys on here should take note of how a realistic prediction goes, regardless of who you pick .

                    Mosley said that Pacquiao isn't hard to hit. I just looked up the punch stats and only he landed 66 punches against Pac that fight.

                    Thats less than 6 punches a round lmao

                      HBO was put out 2 great programs so far before the fight. All access episode 2 was also good last night.
                      Bernard Hopkins is the best, he needs to replace Roy jones Jr. on the broadcast team ASAP!!
                      All fair assessments of what they thought can happen. I agree with Bernard, lots of early action with Floyd figuring Manny out and pulling off a very close decision. People will be calling for a rematch in September .
