Almost main event time! Lookin forward to watchin another Pac beatdown

Great co-main event there. Not sure about throwing the towel in in the 12th round of a title fight mind you. If it wasn't his father, they probably let Vasquez try and get through the round and win it on the score cards.

Vasquez was getting his head used as a punching bag but he didn't seem to be too dazed by it

Get to the God damn fight. It's been 35 minutes since the Arce fight ended and Pac's barely started his walk.

Wow. Pacquiao dropped Mosley in Rd 3. Mosley is in for a long night.

Anyone who thought this would be a good fight was kidding themselves. Manny is clearly better. This is worse than I thought it would be though. These guys respect each other wayyyyy too much. Stop being a bitch Floyd.

cowboyronnie · Post #1611 » by **cowboyronnie** » Sun May 8, 2011 4:38 am

What a terrible fight, 9 rds in. All the action's been really awkward, with Mosley quick to move out of range and Pac having to reach and flail. Ugh.

I still think Pac finishes. Short right hook.

Okay now it's getting good.

Mosley is 39 now - I didn't expect him to show up and put up a fight. He's trying his hardest to not get knocked out at this point.

Pac leaves himself open a lot of times like after his combinations and a counter puncher of Mayweather's caliber could exploit that.

Kinda funny Mayweather's lastest tweet:

Everyone watch Lady Gaga tonight on the best network in the world, HBO. 9p/8c.

no win all-around: fighters, Showtime and fans. the former two did not need the money.

the commentators on SKY mentioned that people were leaving the arena after the 11th.

Agreed on the counter punching, but ultimetely I think Pac would just walk through them anyways. I think he's got a deep desire inside of him to really fight it out, to be in a war... probably unparalled in combat sports.

This fight was pretty awful for the sport of boxing and especially for anyone that shelled out big money to watch on TV or be there in person. Can't get excited for any boxing event at this point that does not involve Pacman and Mayweather in the same ring.

Bob Arum said he's made an offer to Juan Manuel Marquez to fight Pacquiao. If Marquez unavailable, he'll go to Bradley or Zab Judah.
