    Same here. I think next year can potentially be better than this one.

    I'm real pumped for this fight, but I'm nervous as well.. All I know is by late Saturday night, I'll be either crushed or one of the happiest ****ers alive..

    I'm talking about great fights period. For you any year that Pac fights wether he win by KO or get a gift is a great year for boxing.

    as huge as this fight is, you can count me in on not being excited about it. :roll:


    ive looked forward to alot of lesser promoted/hyped fights than this.

    Yeah, the DLH-event is boring and scripted. I will definitely not waste time seeing that live. The bad thing is that many people cannot help it. IF they show them enough times people will wanna see it even if they know it is scripted and bull****. If we hear enough about Paris Hilton we wanna see what she is doing this weekend and what parties she has been to (not me, but you know what I mean ;-) ).

    I am really looking forward to FROCH-PASCAL. That is not an event. That is a real unscripted FIGHT. Its gonna be a drama!:bbb :bbb

    Of course even if you are interested in the fight, it's PPV with a horrible undercard. Both Lopez-Medina and Ortiz-Resto are serious mismatches. At least the KO is guaranteed, but in one-sided fights. The biggest money events are putting boxings' reputation on the line, and as Mayweather-DLH failed to entertain last year, this card can push boxing back even more.

    What good is in a fight where the two scenarios are:
    -PacMan loses: but he was too small from the beginning. He took it for the money
    -DLH loses: but he's way too old, drained, left shoulder injury. He took it for the money

    The fight is a joke,I'm interesting just in the excitement point of vire of seeing a KO or a good one-sided fight,nothing more

    I'm not looking forward to it. It's a circus. I prefer the Pascal-Froch fight instead.

    i got the cinema ticket. i would have a good sunday morning run here and would proceed to the mall afterwards. i hope we could get good fight/s in the card even if most guys think that the main event is a "circus".

    As far as a "mega fight" no not at all. Nothing compared to DLH-Mayweather & Mayweather-Hatton. I'll most likely watch it just hoping and praying Manny wins so we can see Pacquiao-Hatton but I don't see that happening.
