    This fight wil be the biggest letdown in boxing only a Manny win can make it exciting cause you know the route May will take, it will resemble a fenceing match.

    I don't know about being long gone, but it's true that he's mostly a defensive fighter now; he doesn't take chances that often anymore. Like I said the pre 140lbs FMW was a bad mother@@@@@. Today's Mayweather is a boring ass fighter period. Half of the people that watch his fights, lately, want his ass to lose, and the other half are the true FMW fans and there is nothing wrong with that at all. You have to support your boy wether he is a slugger or a boxer. Now, that's a true Mayweahter fans.

    No, you didn't. But I ended up spending like 2 hours learning about the Philippines islands you mentioned and then got off on a tangent about Komodo Dragons and King Kong. LOL!

    Thanks for the cool info. Didn't know about the indigenous mysticism in the Philippines. Very cool.

    Thanks for your service, El Rey. I and many others appreciate you and all the troops. Have a great Thanksgiving! Same to all! :good:good

    It may be. But that voodoo **** you're talking is straight out of a comic book.

    Damm right I'm worried... Remember these other "Super-Fights" :

    Trinidad/DLH
    Lewis/Holyfield
    Hopkins/DLH
    Tyson/Lewis
    Mayweather/DLH
    Hopkins/Calzaghe
    Calzaghe/Jones

    Some of the worst "fights" ever, watched by the most people ever... No wonder the mainstream, non-boxing fans think the sport is shite.

    You don't think so, huh. Have you been to Africa, Jamaica, Haiti, and/or the Philippine Islands? Well apparently you haven't, so it's probably good that you don't believe that kind of stuff because that may freak you out. I have seen almost every corner of this earth man, and I tell you what there are things out there that you don't know about such as mystical stuff, voodoo, Oracion, Anting Anting, Kabalistic, and many more. On the other hand, I don't blame you because you probably are still living with your parents and being a great desktop fighter, :rofl:rofl:rofl. Do your research and you'll be amaze how wonderful this world really is. However, let me warn you don't be scare alright. LOL.
