I hope Mora gets KTFO tonight!

I'm fine with occassional show boating...but the constant run of it get's old & I just end up wanting to see the boater stretched out flat like a board.

Honestly...I would have rather Malinaggi stayed down than take the beating that Cotto dished out on him. Plus...Paulie's got the goods & it was a shame to see him handled in such a fashion.

Im not a Mora fan or anything, but the guy seems to have good skills and quick hands, and he still has his 0 intact which in my eyes makes him a good prospect that is still on the right track, and untill he loses i will believe that. (although i think he lost the second manfredo fight) its what the judges score that counts. So although hes a cocky guy this makes him fun to watch, and i hope he keeps on winning.
This saying he thinks hes on the same level as srl is rubbish, these guys have worked together that much they may have become friends? maybe?

Only the Manfredo fans hate him and those are like a bunch of old ladys and little kids who watched the Contender, people who know squat about boxing. They are just as sick and twisted and dillusional as Peter and his father are.

If you did not watch the Contender then you could not hate Sergio. Manfredo fans are like Jerry Garcias Dead Heads.

I have seen them.

They put the WACK in WACKO

;D

You sound like 1 of them "I like boxing cuz i watched contender fans" manfredo had a much higher ranking and respectability with the general boxing public than Mora did before the 1st contender. Just wanted to add that, im not really a fan of either either.

I watched boxing as a kid and then followed certain fighters careers. Mostly Latinos (Oscar DLH, Barrera, Morales, Paez Sr. Chavez Sr. Castilloand so on)

I did get real hooked on boxing again during the Contender.

I started being more open minded and began to watch fighters like Tszyu, Hatton, Calzaghe also opened my racial blinders and began watching figthers like Tito and Cotto. Mexicans and Puerto Ricans have a huge rivalery in this sport.

I am no stranger to Ali, Norton, Foreman, Smokin Joe, Holmes or any heavy weights of that era.

Hated the Tyson era.

I am also no stranger to Ray, Hagler, MotorCity C, Duran. My favorite era.

Hate PBF with a passion.

Huge Miguel Cotto fan.

I could go on but I guess you get the idea.

I have tons and I mean tons of fights today and that is all I watch.

Hate the heavys of today and I think I dont stand alone on this one.

Hate Manfredo fans with a passion.

Peace.

I used to box. So I would like to think I did. Truth is, I sucked. I was more into going out and having a good time. The discipline it requieres to be great is too much work for a bumb like me.


And no Wacko, You and I have never had beef. I have always respected you and your wild and drunken posts. I lost my pass to my name :(
So I just made a new one.

I am not a reject just a an air head when it comes to user names and passwords :)

Maybe you can look at my IP and tell me what my old name and pass was please Wacko.

TY

Only the Manfredo fans hate him



Yes, I'm a Manfro fan... :juggle:

I'll see if I can get the boss to help you out with that.

What has Sergio done exactly? He robbed Peter Manfredo and then got knocked down by a Journey man...

Manfredo has shown much more promise, though I suppose being a fan of the runner up and not the winner is what Old ladies and kiddies tend to do... What credentials do the Sergio fans base it on?...

Actually I think Sergio shows much more promise than Peter. Peter was dominated by Mora the first time, lost to Alfonso the first time, barely got past Joey Gilbert and Miguel Espino on the Contender and only really looked great against Pemberton.

The first fight with Mora I originally thought was a big win for Peter but after watching it a second and third time I think Sergio nicked it.

He was cut terribly in hte first round which threw him off his gameplan but he came back well.

I tend to think that a third match between the pair would be an easy UD for Mora.

Through out the Tornament he was walking around at a ridiculous weight, why do you think he looked better when he beat Mora (...:P), he was only at the weight for the weigh in, not days before it... same with pemperton he could fight at his weight.

If it was that easy guys would be coming down from all sorts of weights and beating up people well below them... :P

It does you in ;)

Anyone know Mora had the flu for the rematch with Manfredo?

meanwhile you have Artur Abraham pulling out because of "flu like symptoms" ::**

Yeah I knew that too.

He gets no credit yet he is a skilled boxer, exciting to watch and a real character.

I think he can do well at 160, obviously he has a long way to go but his skills are clear for everyone to see. He totally outboxed Regan last night, a guy whose height and reach advantages could have been real obstacles for Mora.

I think he's going to be winning for a while.

It pisses me off when people claim they had 'The Flu' if he'd really had the Flu he would of been doing well to make it from the dressing room to the canvas...

You had a bit of a cold son... ::**

4. trys to compare himself to SRL....one of the best that ever lived


I hate mora now....he's so arrogant and will never do anything in boxing worthy of challenging sugars legacy....if your arrogant you nedd to be a good,actually great to be theat confident..people now dont like ali as a fighter and he's a legend

---

What has he done or said that was arrogant though? I've obviously missed it. ???

---

someone mentioned before 'bout him sayin to srl "good flurry, but we both know 'bout flurries, don't we" cheeky bastard comparin himself to a great like leonard

As for only Manfredo fans hating Sergio... couldn't say I am a fan of Manfredo's... don't rate him much I see him possibly breaking the top 5 and maybe getting a lesser belt but that is all.

[quote=Big_Deuce ]
im not the BIGGEST manfredo fan around here(ahem ahem pride) lol but i do like the kid, and i thinkhe will some more training he could one day own a belt. I just remember the rematch. between sergio and manfredo.
And at the end, sergio looked so depressed, head hung low, then, BY GOLLY he heard his name as the victor and he was like . Ya thats right, i did it, im the man. Lmao, then started to talk junk on how bad he beat up manfredo. Not to mention on the first round, while he and manfredo were tied up on multiple occasions he was swearing at manfredos father, and manfredos wife.
He comes off cocky, and i dont like him, nor do i have to. You can, and more power to ya.
By the way, no i dont hate fighters for being cocky, if they deserve to be. Mora, hasnt showed me shat, to dignify his attitude.

Ok before you spread lies, like Manfredo and his fans. Cus we all know what a liar and a
two faced rodent Peter is.

Sergio almost always hangs his head before the decision. It's a well known pattern. Don't ask me
why but I will ask him tomorrow becuase I have noticed this before and it makes me laugh because
he reminds me of a kid who just broke something or did something wrong. Laugh with me.

In the first round and thru the entire fight, Peter's uncle Robbie was talking mad trash to Sergio. He kept calling Sergio a punk and a puzzy and on and on and on.

And if you are saying that Sergio did not win the first fight convincingly, then you are smoking crack. Because from what I understand you are talking about the first fight.

You have all your post twisted and your lies azz backwards.

Re do your post so that it makes sense to us on the West Side.

Sergio never said anything to Yamilka. You say in your post that Sergio was talking trash to her, too. He was laughing at her yes. He was laughing at all the Manfredos after he told Manfredo Sr.
"Watch This!"

Please do not spread lies. That is just wrong.

is it just me or does danny g sound like royal and his love for kess? im just wondering, no offence meant.

Royal is kool people.

I don't know nothing about his love for kess. ;D

But I do hate when Manfredo fans distort the truth.
Why post lies? Why make shiet up? Does this mean the person has no leg to stand on and has to resort to lying to get attention? They all have the same patern and they all seem to be cut from the same filthy cloth. I am almost convinced they are inbred there is no way a family can be that big. But anyways, why are we talking about a fight that is old news? Just to try and spread more hate?

Maybe I shold post this video of Manfredo trying to hate.

http://ciudad.latinol.com//baboso/baboso.swf
Notice the dorky laugh. I would of paid 100 dollars to see the look on
his dorky azz face when this went down. I bet he was red as a beet.

http://img181.imageshack.us/img181/8...owteethfh9.jpg

Also, is there some kind of law against toothbrushes or tooth paste in Rhode Island?

Yuk Mouth and Co.


Oh and if you are too lame to figure it out, you have to click on the green arrow to view the vid.

I know some of the Manfredo fans are a bit retarded.

Just listen to Peters laugh at the end of the video.

DORK!

:coolclick:

Yup he is a bit of a goofball.

He looks like he and Ebo Elder went to the same school. I can imagine them both as kids hanging out together, going out for rides in the back of Ebo's dads pickup.

What the hell is going on here? Did Royal move to the USA and trade in Kessler for this mora guy? Why do I get the feeling we are going to have a daily thread going about Mora(aka kess)(some guy from a tv reality show for godsake) who "can be beaten by no man" and that Manfredo(aka lacy) guy will now be "Bad teeth bum fighter"?

antics like what? shimmying his shoulders? Smiling when he's about to knockout someone? or the banging his knees telling someone to "come on!" how come when other fighters do that they say they're warriors and that they want to fight, Erik Morales did that all the time and nobody hates him

he doesn't really knock out anyone....3 ko's in 18 fights is no power whatsoever!!

Even flu like symptoms make it hard to fight under because you can barely breathe and your timing is off! Don't make it seem like it's a little thing thats easy to get over ::**

Flu like symptoms isn't the flu. Neither is chicken pox. Your smashing Abraham for not fighting the biggest fight of his life when he has the flu, I never said it was easy to get over FLU LIKE SYMPTOMS. I've felt sick before with flu like symptoms, didn't have the flu though.

Besides, sick and all, Mora still lost.

Abraham has bird flu it has been confirmed. Caught it from a chicken so I heard :P

He probably genuinley has the flu... whilst all these other people are either making excuses or had a cold or some other infection or virus.

People through the word Flu around for any illness that involves having a blocked nose and sneezing etc... those are just minor symtoms of the flu... the fatigue is very high... like I said to high for you to be able to make it into the ring just about... this is not an exageration...

people at work all the time say "I had the flu" when they were off... the Flu is not that common, I have had my fair share of colds and have had the Flu once in my life time...

I couldn't make it up the stairs with out nearly blacking out.

You can die from having the Flu for gods sake... people just like to through it around because a cold sounds weak.

Why do you keep talking about Royal and Kess?

If you are trying to talk papas about me, read the thread.
'I hope Mora gets KTFO tonight!'

I did not start the thread. If you don't like the Contender then dont come into the thread. It's real simple. Don't try to do drive bys and compare me to your friend Royal and try to talk about me in your own subtle way.

I have not said anything about you. I can. If you want to go there. But the thread is not about me and it sure aint about you cus you aint nobody special. Who have you beat? Where have you stared? Who knows your name other than people on Saddo? Not me. No eres nadie!

The symptoms are different and vary depending on person and age. You can die from virus with symptons no where near as bad as a real Flu, when you looked at james Tony against Rahman, did you think 'fucking hell, he looks like he's about to collapse' before he'd even got to the ring? because if he had the Flu and not just a cold you would of... ;)

Trust me, unless his imune system was weaker than that of an 80 year old, the fever and fatigue from chicken pox are nothing compared to a real flu.

No one who actually gets the Flu fights... not matter how much heart they have or how fit they are a bin man would knock them out in half a minute.

Few people know what a flu is like because most people think they have had the flu when all they have is a common cold.
