Boxing

And just for entertainment's sake, here's a pre-prime Hopkins giving Joe Lipsey the KTFO treament:

Some of the fighters are fading but at least you've heard of them, lol. Anyways here goes the info:http://sports.yahoo.com/box/news;_yl...ndercard072510

I have Marquez by TKO. Diaz doesn't seem to have it anymore imo.

The undercards are attractive, but it's not worth $50 for the entire fight...maybe i can get the tix cheaper to see live.

So Mayweather Sr. has come out and stated that the real reason that Floyd didn't take the Pac fight right now is because he didn't want to make too much money in one year due to tax reasons. I can actually believe this...

^^Thanks for posting...LOL, interview was funny as it was interesting. It might be that the IRS is the one who knocks out Floyd (rumors are that Money owes $$$ to the IRS). I totally agreed with Floyd Sr. on the catchweight issue. Love em' or hate em' the Mayweathers are never boring.

lol that family is always full of excuses.

that's true, as well.

You're right.. I think Mayweather should ask for Oscar De La Hoya's accountant/lawyer. Or Tiger Woods. Maybe Micheal Jordan's. All of these guys made a lot of money in singular years and never seem to have problems with the IRS. But then you see Mayweather showing off his $50K iPod. I really hope Money manages his $$$ as well as he boxes. I don't want to see him in 15 years on some reality show trying to make money.

I would love to see that lol^^^ He doesn't respect the fans that have made him rich so fuck em.

Anyone see Chad Dawson's fight? He's a talented fighter who seems to need some passion. He clearly had more talent than Pascal but seems to fight asleep. More "Bad" & less passive Chad. I agreed with judges scorecard's. He showed more anger during his interview with Larry Merchant than during the fight.

Emmanuel Steward made an interesting comment about the newer gen of fighters & how they need to score more KO's to keep boxing alive. Good talent (Tim Bradley, Devon Alexander, Chad Dawson, etc.) but the KO ratio isn't impressive. Baseball fans dig the long ball & boxing fans dig a good KO (not ALL fans, but still).

yeah I seen it I expect a rematch I think chad was on his way to a tko victory but the lose is his fault

also it does seem like we get less ko these days but I do also enjoy a good 12 round fight

Dawson was gettin punked by the Canadian. Dawson's % was on par but the Canadian was landing power and had a few more licks. Dawson seemed tired and never really got the fight started on his part. A rematch would be sick... in New Haven this time hahaha.

First guy Dawson fights that isn't over the hill and he looses lol

whats the next big fight in boxing?

Pac vs MargaCHEATO in November

Juanma vs Marquez should be great, too
