    So I had a packed house for the fight. Everyone but me was a casual fan. Right after the fight a promo comes ups showing MMA fights. Right away I hear most of them saying, "**** boxing, this is way better!" Hard to have a good argument after witnessing the pathetic event that Mosley had just served to us.

    Mosley embarrased and put the sport down a notch. **** him! Im still pissed.

    mosley cheated the fans out of their money and made the sport look bad. luckily arce vs vazquez was a good fight.

    I agree with this can't excuse Mosley's performance just because he's been a warrior in the past and he was saying **** I couldn't believe after the fight.

    Ohh God same thing happened to me. :lol:

    This one friends girlfriend was saying "when will they start fighting" the whole ****ing time i wanted to smack her.

    Everyone was getting bored and inside i was like "pleaseeeee brawl for two rounds so these people can leave happy and come to future PPVs to split the cable bill".......then they start touching gloves.

    But yeah then i see Montiel-Donaire Lopez-Salido and Ortiz-Berto and obviously i watch them alone thinking why couldnt these people have seen these fights.

    Hopkins said it best:

    ...I asked Hopkins on a Tuesday conference call put together to hype his May 21 rematch with Jean Pascal if he watched Pacquiao-Mosley, and what he thought of it. He said he was struck by how many times Mosley went to touch gloves with Manny, before and during rounds. "When fighters are touching gloves every round, it's a sign of submission," said the 46 year old hitter who attempts to be the oldest man to win a title in two weeks. "It's called body language." If he saw Pascal doing what Mosley did, Hopkins said, he would know he had him mentally, and would then try and finish the job physically. "He submitted early, after the knockdown."

    It's sad that before every big fight I find myself thinking; C'mon guys, make it a show, make me a believer.

    This is why I'm looking forward to the JMM fight. That guy always brings it when it comes to Pacman.

    No Offense but this is your fault, since the fight was made there was NO REASON to believe this was gonna be a good fight at all, NO REASON, its pathetic how as soon as the fight became closer the people forgot that Mosley had 2.5 years without giving a good showing, ffs this was the same guy who "draw" against Sergio Mora, how the hell did the people think Mosley had a shot?

    Fu**ing Arum is kidnapping our sport and for people like you(I guess you bought the fight) he keeps giving us shitty cards, if people continue buying these scumbag piece of **** ppv cards he will keep putting shitty cards, he doesnt give a **** about our sport, the only way to stop this scumbag is to STOP BUYING TOP RANK PPV Fights until he puts his boxers with real challenges, ffs compare Golden Boy Promotions, he gave us his Undefeated at that time supoustly the new golden boy Victor Ortiz against Maidana, then he put Maidana vs Khan, then Ortiz Berto, etc,

    I am not saying GBP puts everytime great cards but at least he put his fighters in challenges, Top Rank doesnt give a ****, Arum only cares about money and if his money is in danger(one of his protected fighters) he wont put it on the line as simple as that and like I said the only way to stop this is NOT TO BUY Top Rank Cards until he gives us what we want, "The customers what they ask" and guess what WE ARE the customers of this sport, he has to give us what we want not what he wants as simple as that.

    Next time if you have to watch one of these shity fights because we are boxing fans, we need to watch them, but DO NOT BUY IT, go to a bar, watch it on the internet, whatever you want but DO NOT BUY Top Rank Cards, I enjoy watching manny but I am sick of this ****, I am not giving 1 more cent until this scumbag give us our sport back, he never wanted to give us Gamboa-Lopez, Gamboa or Lopez vs John, etc so many cases where there was actually a good challenge and he gave us ****, he needs to start puting his fighters on the line but if people keep paying for this **** he will keep giving us this ****...

    BTW If Arce wouldnt have won by stoppage I am 100% Sure he would had been robbed on the scorecards, Arum just wanted to cashout on him and add Arce last name to Vazquez record but I am glad this didnt happen, Arum thought Arce was donde but thanks god he gave us his last great performance and **** on Arum...

    Sorry if I offended u, not my intention...
