Boxing thread

I don't know how much activity this thread will get, but I, for one, will spend my hard earned money on this fight.

It's happening about 3 or 4 years later than I would have liked, but at least it is happening. I fully expect Mayweather to win, although I cannot stand him, but will be rooting for the Pac Man.

Kind of conflicted because I'm absolutely convinced Pacquiao was using HgH during his best years and I absolutely can't stand Mayweather's cocky attitude but I hope this can kind of put boxing back on the map. I used to be the hugest fight fan, used to always get the pay-per-view fights and loved when boxing was truly a main event. Hopefully this fight lives up to the hype that's sure to be there.

I hope May destroys Pac.

I hope the ring collapses at the opening bell.

It's not going to have anywhere near the impact it would have, and you can see that already. That said, Mayweather is going to bludgeon manny.

They're both objectionable pricks, but Mayweather annoys me more so I guess I'll be pulling for the Pacman. I would have been more interested if they'd got their excrement together five years ago though. No excuse for them not fighting each other in their prime.

I'm considering heading over to Vegas for the fight. Really wish this would've happened 5 years ago.

Haha. It still kills me the way Mayweather destroyed Gatti and Hatten. I wasn't very surprised by the outcomes, but the way he beat them was sad.

As much as I hate Mayweather, he is easily one of the best fighters I've ever seen and I've been following boxing for more than 30 years now.

Christ time flies. I just realized the last negotiations was back in 2010. Feels like just last year.

I'm mainly puling for May because of the stupid freaking Pac fans
