i'll kick myself if it turns out to be a good fight....but i'm thinking it will be as boring as a pac fight is possible of being.

it'd be in a sad financial state for sure, but there are plenty of good fighters out there.

you dont think manny is fun to watch??

sure, hes been fighting garbage fighters as of late but you cant ignore how fun he is to watch.

and of course there are good fighters but none with star power.

oh he's fun to watch, which is why i said the mosely fight will be as boring as a pac fight is possible of being, instead of as always.

fuck floyd.

he's consistently ducked manny with bullshit testing demands, denying that negotiations took place, and (if the latest reports are to believed) purposely pricing himself out of a possible fight......and the his last few fights while against big names, were either against fighters on the decline or guys he considerably outsized. that said, i can't deny that he's got skills.

he's a dumb, shallow, ducking, shit talking, douche bag......but he's a talented dumb, shallow, ducking, shit talking, douche bag.

jones is alright (but he really ought to retire), but i'd like to see another muhammad ali....a guy who can say/do something controversial and say/do it intelligently, fight all comers, talk mad shit, then actually back it.

anyone watching tonights gamboa fight?

edit:wow. gamboa is really coming into his own now....he may be the next pacquiao (who took several more rounds get rid of solis). totally dominating performance.

gamboa vs. juanma could be a classic
