    Hindsight is always 20/20 man.... weve all been there before.:good I def thought Clottey was going to give him a good scrap based on his strength, chin, and size... i figured hed at least try to sieze the moment and take advantage of this fight. I also didnt expect Pac to never stop throwing punches... lol.


    Im still pissed i picked Pavlik over Martinez :-:)patsch

    Kirk i was just wondering coz you took my bet for Mosley v Mayweather and it looks like im the only one man enough to go for Sugar Shane can i give someone else a a go at that fight or do i only get to bet once.

    If im aloud ill take the first person for another $20 on Mosley.

    Cheers.

    Everyone must be thinking whats Boppa thinking.

    But i have this big, NO Huge feeling PBF will be running scared all fight which is exactly what Mosley will want to win.

    If Mosley even gets a sniff that Mayweather is scared and runs the fight no matter what will go to Mosley.

    Boppa, let me just say that i hope your right and mosley does win.... Im rooting for him to win the biggest fight of his life and this is one loss ill be happy to take :good And then if he wins we can set up Pac vs Mosley which is another big reason i want to see mosley win as i think mayweather vs pac might not happen.

    so i hope your right boppa!

    :lol: Its all good man lol, all blame is on my shoulders.... i just thought while it was a bad styles matchup, and martinez was the better fighter, that he would wind up slowing down towards the end of the fight and start getting tagged more, and then knocked down a few times to where it would tilt the decision in pavliks favor. I kinda saw a Cotto vs Margarito replay in my head with Martinez moving and doing good early but with Pavlik catching up to him and making him pay.... but then i looked into it a bit more and wanted to change my pick, but i didnt, and thats just my own fault lol.

    I have a feeling i will be a journeyman again by the end of the month :lol:

    Pavlik Vs Martinez was a tough one man, I knew Martinez was good, but I did not expect him to take out Pavlik! And yeah I dont think any of us expected Clottey to go out there and do hardly anything like he did.

    Ya, Clottey held basically no advantages in that one. Deck was stacked against him hard. Oh well, if you would have won there was a lot of upside.

    Nah. That's ALWAYS good advice. You never change the horse you're betting on, and you never change the number you're betting on roulette. Just the way it is. You can live with a mistake on your first inclination. Changing it and losing is killer.

    I skipped picking on that one because there were too many unknowns for me regarding Pavlik. It was a really tough one to call.

    Yep, was not a smart move on my part. Inactivity, lacking quality opposition in awhile, heavy drinking rumors, coming off injury. ect... :-:)patsch
