    Remember Margo has to cut down 50 lbs before the Mosley fight. He's severely weight drained.

    Yeah I've noticed HBO is more emotional during their fights as opposed to the showtime crew, that appear unbiased & could care less about the outcome of the fight. I'm starting to appreciate the showtime crew more & more

    Ive got noooooo problem whatsoever with them putting pressure on Mayweather to fight Pac. In fact, I'm glad an establishment like HBO is taunting Mayweather publicly about him ducking Pac.

    That being said, DURING the fight, that was the worst commentating I've seen in a long time during a fight.

    Sometimes there is one or two of the commentators who don't do so well. Last night they were unprofessional as a group. It was a very, very poor performance on one of boxing's biggest nights of the year.

    Yeah. I'm tired of this Ri-gon-dee-awe ****. It's ****ing Ri-gon-do! English speakers are really shitty when it comes to pronouncing French names.:-(

    Reminds me of French speakers trying to pronounce English names.

    Did you see Margarito's face?

    Explain that face for me. I mean, you saw his face, right? You know, completely disfigured and unrecognizable? A grotesque S-hsaped cut and both eyes swollen shut. A ghoulish, hideous face. Oh, and a broken orbital bone.

    Kellerman is awful, I never thought I'd say this but I missed Merchant.

    Im rethinking this, yes Kellerman is ****n awful. Hes like a little boy that really doesnt belong in any professional setup. His voice is awful, hes like this little snitch (talking about locker room fiasco in the middle of a great exchange between Karras and Jones) and sounds condescending as fuk.

    He tries too damn hard whilst with Larry, he just makes a little comment once every round and its usually something meaningful and funny.

    As for Steward, his mind just wasnt in the fights last night, he was all over the damn place.

    Yeah Floyds pulling a SRL move by waiting for fighters to get old and you have Lampley blurting out "Hes made Pac 5 bigger guys!" Whoa Jim, you the same guy watching in awe when Floyds beating the likes of Corrales back in the day?

    Floyd deserves all the flack but do it on ESPN PTI with Wilbon ffs. Give me the breakdown of the fights. These guys are all wearing Tuxedos and mocking fighters on PPV. lol Tim McCarver and Gary Thorne theyre not.

    How is it surprising? Manny's landing on a much bigger and taller fighter..Of course his punches aren't going to be as effective.

    The fight could have and should have been stopped however to my surprise.. I didnt think he would hurt Margarito as much as he did.

    Pac could have knocked Margarito out, but did not try the last two rounds or so. Void is still running from Pac and for good reason. Void picks Pac to beat his chicken arse!

    Right, Farmboxer. Floyd predicts: Pacquiao KO Mayweather.
