        personally i may do like the OP and boycott this fight.

        Mayweather waited until Pacquaio is no longer a good fighter to schedule the fight

            Why i don't go to bars anymore to watch the fight. It brings out the biggest low lifes who do what Bear does. As soon as the fight is over they leave like there is a fire in the joint. Who wants to be around these cheap fuks. I spend enuf time with the cheap fuks here.

              It's a shame Mayweather finally agrees after Manny has 60+ fights, 20 year career and 36 years old. Definitely feel like he stalled until Manny begins the back end of his career.

                Didn't Floyd age as well? This logic seems to keep repeating itself like somehow Floyd made time stand still and Manny got older.

                  For most fights the bars pay 1500 to 3000 to order it but this one will likely cost around 5000. That means the cover charge will be 25-30 bucks.

                  Boycott that shit

                    They probably get the water backwashed,I would be shocked if they didn't.

                        Thor. It's clear that manny's skills have diminished more than floyd ha e the past 5 years. He was a fukking machine when these negotiations started in dec 09 right thru the night in dec 2012 that jmm koed him. He got reckless as usual but was dominating jmm. Since that night he's not the same guy and floyd pounced. Manny is desperate in every way both in and out of the ring. Hence the fight got made

                          I will probably download torrent for this fight, when possible. Not watching it live.

                              Hbo and showtime on hd the following week.

                              As for fight night go pay cover charge at a bar or follow a live stream online. It will be grainy and pixelized but you'll at least enjoy some of the moments

                                No it is not clear Manny skills have deteriorated. Give me some clues where. Because he got knocked out? Everyone gets caught sooner or later. He was dominating that fight when it happen. Against Bradley? He took 10 of 12 rounds and got fuked by a couple of corrupt judges. It was gonna take a sledgehammer to get Marquez out of that fight just like it was gonna take a sledge hammer for Mark Hunt to take out Big Foot when he was all Jacked up. U saw what happen to Big foot when he had to play by the rules. So tell me where he is slipping? He is fighting the best names out there. His speed is still there. U are saying basically that one punch has shown u that Manny has slipped. I know u are a big Manny fan but to say his skills are slipping because of one punch is naive.

                                    Bars that charge for fights I think is ridiculous. I do understand that these fights bring people to bars; but really, and I don't think I'm in the minority, I would never pay to watch something at a bar. Why not just get people together, have BETTER food, and alcohol that is 1/5th the price.

                                      I'm with u but when they have to dole out 3000 bucks to get a fight they have to charge the cover so they don't get fukked by water drinkers. I believe bars will be charged 5000 bucks to order this one

                                              Lol homie isn't alone...even if I supported boxing I would think this is a stale fight...many people have lost interest at this point...floyd is a clown anyway, you want to see people like him acting a fool, just watch the news...people that pay money for this shit are clueless, and tools...

                                                  You're going to make the PPV numbers drop? Arum aren't gonna be happy about that, but I guess he cant fux with bighomeboiii.

                                                  Also, who da penetrate pays for fights anyway?

                                                        My angle will be to go to recommend bar if need be as that is a static amount paid by the bar. Better yet live steam free then watch replay on hbo or showtime. If it must be ordered then roll 20 deep to max the value of 100 bucks.

                                                        I'm doing it and will go national with it just wait and watch

                                                          What nationally syndicated sports talk show should I call to urge and plead with America not to buy the fight? I don't get satellite radio so i dont listen to Jim Rome anymore. Mike and mike are too early for us west coasters so I don't plan on calling them.

                                                          I'm thinking of calling Colin cowherds show

                                                            no, you pay less than -140 on mayweather by decision and hope the judges arent crooked.

                                                              If you understood boxing then fights sent boring, they tell stories actually, that's if you understand what you're watching. My gf been into boxing for a while now after I've explained to her what's going on. These fad MMA kids these days just don't get it.
