sounds like a double sacker... They need loving to

Round 8: Descriptions are getting shorter but that's because it's getting more and more predictable. FM is landing a good to great shot or 3 per round and avoids getting hit with anything significant all day.

 

[NochNoch]

Round 9: Better round for RG but still probably not enough to win, sad thing about fighting FM is he's just too damn good defensively and he lands 2 or 3 flush shots that snap the head back and he wins another 10-9 round.

 

[NochNoch]

Round 10: Power punches landed by % so far FM in the fight = 61% and RG = 31%. Should tell you all you need to know. Nothing different in this round.

 

[Orange Daddy]

Time for the FM knock out round, he done went enough to make the money.
I see it coming

 

[NochNoch]

Round 11: I can't stand the guy but FM is just amazing as a fighter, he continues to be smart and strategic on D but still landing like crazy on the offensive counter.

 

[Orange Daddy]

What makes you not like him so much??

 

[NochNoch]

Round 12: Nothing left to say. Probably a 10 rounds to 2 decision. Best in the business by far, not the most exciting fighter and a (personal opinion time) not a guy I like to root for but an absolutely dominant performance.

 

[NochNoch]

What makes you not like him so much??

I tend to dislike the his style in general (as a little background, I would have hated Ali if I was alive during his reign as well, not bc of how good he was but bc of how he went about it).

But, all that aside, the exact facts are a little sketchy but from what I can tell he beat a woman, and there really isn't a much lower form of a man to me than one that hits a female.

 

[Orange Daddy]

Thanks for all the updates on the fight..
So you are a Braves fan were do you live at, what city?

 

[NochNoch]

Yep, barves fan here. Live in VA.

Mayweather was far superior tonight. After the fight he admitted he had an injured right hand and should have knocked him out. Even though Floyd has been off a year he still did a great job. Couldn't be touched.

Yawn? If I never hear from Floyd, Steroid Manny, or Freddy Roach again I'll take Lou Gehrig's place as the luckiest man on the face of the earth

 

[vol_in_ar]

He probably did hurt his hand but he wasn't going to knock him out regardless. He had the fight won after probably the 8th round and Floyd is not one to take chances in that scenario.

 

[Toujours Pret]

Looking like Showtime took an absolute beating on that card, up to 500,000 less buys than their break even point.

Can't say I'm surprised, in the least.

 

[Toujours Pret]

Ricky Burns got his ass kicked, then Gonzalez broke his hand in the 9th and didn't answer the bell for the 10th.

 

[NochNoch]

Alexander looked decent tonight.

Matthysse v Peterson should hopefully be a good main event.

 

[NochNoch]

Well, that didn't last too long.

 

[Toujours Pret]

It seems like that Matthyse fellow has a good punch, eh?

 

[NochNoch]

JTrain, I know it's not Joe but Froch and Kessler are showing some good fight for a couple of smaller Euros.

 

[Toujours Pret]

Fun fight to watch, Froch is just better.

I wonder if the division is bad, or if Calzaghe was that good, or a combination of the two. I'm going to see Oosthuizen fight next month at Foxwoods, not sure if it's a televised card or not. Videos look good, but he can't finish taxi drivers or waiters, so I think he'd be SOL against Froch/Kessler/Ward

I'd say that's most accurate.

 

[Toujours Pret]

I'd say that's most accurate.

I don't think Calzaghe needed a shower after the Kessler fight
