Makom 0 Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 Couldn't see a thread for this yet. Time to start getting excited I guess. Only a few days away now.... I'm a cheap son of a bitch, so I'll be catching this on the first available free replay. I'm predicting Pacquiao in the 8th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fish 10963 Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 As I understand it, they're both past their best, Mayweather is boring and boxing is shit anyway. Saved you a click Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 46022 Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 Here's the tale of the tape from someone who hasn't watched much boxing in years: Mayweather will box Pacquiao's head off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom 14013 Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 Basically it'll be like Arsenal 0-0 Chelsea the other day & Mayweather will go on like a bellend after. I've got loads of mates coming round and got a load of beer in like - but the fight is an excuse really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin Carr's Gloves 3963 Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 Basically it'll be like Arsenal 0-0 Chelsea the other day & Mayweather will go on like a bellend after. I've got loads of mates coming round and got a load of beer in like - but the fight is an excuse really. The first and last time I did that was the first Tyson Holyfield fight. We got pissed and went to bed at 12 with an alarm for the fight, got up at the alarm switched on tv sat watching the entrances and introductions and had all fallen asleep again before the end of the first round. Woke up with the PPV ended screen with no idea who won. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Gloom 22143 Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 i've got a rare night out planned for this on saturday. unsurprisingly, none of my mates fancies hosting it as all my group have small babies, so our plan is to venture out for beers then watch it at belushi's on borough high street - absolutely hideous south london late night bar/hostel. could be a disgusting night but i'm looking forward to it as it'll be my first proper bender of the year.

Ended up there a few times after the George has kicked out. As you say, it's proper skanky, but probably quite appropriate for the nature of the occasion.

OTF 7485 Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 (edited) Wrong decision unsurprisingly. CompuBox is wrong. Mayweather is a dog. Boxing is dead. Edited May 3, 2015 by OTF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 46022 Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 That was canny average for the richest fight in the sport's history. They need to sort boxing out so that people can't just go their careers avoiding one another at their peak. There are better, more exciting fights than that on every UFC undercard.

Howmanheyman 33828 Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 Already had a can. This is fucked I went round my pals around about half twelve yesterday dinner time to watch the match. Three of us for that with a few cans, joined afterwards by another two lads. I never had any intention of staying till fucking four am, like. Left at nine o'clock as I'd not gone ape shit with the drink and wasn't mortal. The 'Host' of the event was shitfaced when I left. No fucking way would he have seen the fight. Got to say, if my lass was away for the weekend with the kid there's no way I'd be having the lads round to watch a boxing fight. Fuck that.

Ayatollah Hermione 14047 Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 When it went down to points, they should have made them take the gloves off and bare knuckle box for another round. If I watch boxing, I want some bloke sparked clean out, not this points business. You wouldn't get that at Wrestlemania. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
