Anyone else feel totally uninterested in the 'big week' of PacMan-DLH?

    Or is it just me? The 3rd 24/7 episode might be the perfect example of what this 'little prime guy vs. tall old fart' match-up misses.

    Chemistry...

    You know, the feeling 'I want to knock your head off' between the two, something in the air giving the fans chills even through a still image.

    You don't need Mayweatherish loudmouthing or giving terrifying looks at press conferences. 2 fighters simply standing next to each other can pump me up.

    Cotto and Margarito aren't just standing next to each other, I see huge hearts beating faster and faster... including mine... But Oscar and Manny... they are just standing next to each other...

    Sorry if my emotions disturb you. Or my lack of emotions for this fight.

    I'm only looking forward to the Carl Froch fight. DLH vs Pacman is a mis-match, Amir Khan is cocky and crap, while Enzo Maccarinelli may not even have a fight now.
    Come on Froch!

    Oscar should have taken a bigger fight such as Margarito, he tryed what Manny Pacman is attempting. Oscar tryed the impossible in fighting long reigning middle weight champion Bernard Hopkins and look what happened Oscar was knocked out with a body punch. Ive lost a little respect for Oscar after taking this fight.

    It is what it is, a mis-match that only pac fans look forward to.

    But in all honesty, I will be watching the fight somewhere......I'm the type of guy who will order just about any great fight, regardless of the "undercard," but I just can't support this one.

    Agree it is a mismatch, I never buy PPV fights, I just go to a bar and have a good time anyway. I just hope its a decent fight.

    Thats a great way to sum up the emotion for this fight. I agree I'm not very excited for it either, I just hope Manny pulls it out and retires Oscar for good before Oscar bites off more then he can chew and gets put to sleep.

    It is one of the most interesting fights of the year for me, but people will always want to be different.

    A) Who is that in your avatar?

    B) The height difference isn't as big as I thought, judging by those pics.

    based from what I have read on a non boxing forum, most casual fans are very interested in this fight, and they are picking pacman to win his fight against oscar.
