How excited are all of you... I can hardly work seeing updates keep flashing accross my screen... This event is gonna be one of those things that you remember where you were, what you were wearing, and what type of beer you were drinking when it occured.
The World Awaits could not have been a better name... Of course "The World Trembles In Antisipation" would have worked too! ;D
Can't wait for this fight my pick is Mayweather UD12 but i would'nt be gutted if Oscar won as i like both fighters
I think everyone is pretty much in the same boat...Quote:

The last time I was like this was for the Tito - DLH fight. Even though that fight fell WAAYYYY short of expectations. I still remember where I was (My brothers house), what I was drinking (Heiniken of course) and what I was wearing ( jeans and a black polo shirt I threw away years ago now).
In short, I know what you mean bro CC for you.
I keep watching the 24/7 episodes and the more i watch them the more excited i get i think i just peed my pants ;D
you too my man!.. (Hopkins Delahoya) Picaso's Bar and grill, tan cargo pants and a cut off T-shirt, drinking Harpoon India Pale Ale........Quote:

I know alot of casual fans are talking about this in my local and in my work place, its brining boxing back, and a massive fight could make them take interest and realise there are other great fights out there without de la hoya in it.
I am a massive golden boy fan and although i respect floys talents don't like him to much... but given the choice of oscar or floyd winning, i would pick floyd on one condition, himt o win and be a great humble sport about it all... sure enjoy it, but if he could give oscar his props and not go on about how he is the greatest etc etc it would love to see that as he could be great for boxing.
Totally agree with this Preme CC #230;DQuote:

Only if Oscar runs out of gas in a big away and with Floyds great stamina you never knowQuote:

I"m not sold on how good floyd can be at 154. I think his not going to be as fast nor will he have that great stamina his had before.Quote:

yea floyd doesn't care a big punch, specially now at 154 i doubt he'll have enough power to get oscar in trouble. I doubt he'll overwhelm oscar with his speed either. the weight will be a problem for floyd thats what i think. but lets see in 3 days.Quote:

I think the smaller ring will help out Oscar but Floyd is to darn good. It will be close but I think PBF will pull it out.
and I hate saying it, because I really dont like PBF. But you cant down play PBF abilities, the most talented boxer on the planet right now.
I hear ya! CCQuote:

I can't wait to see this fight. I can't get HBO, so I'm going to a redneck sports bar to watch it, and I hate redneck sports bars... but I have to see it.
Well he certainly looks like he can throw with some pop at 150.
LOL I think those are two different things...Quote:

I'm going with Mayweather 12 round Split decision and he will hit canvas from a left hook.
[quote="PRIDE OF BOSTON" ]
Its nothing like Toney at heavy Mayweather is in great shape Toney fights at heavyweight because he's a blob who ain't disaplined enough to eat and train properly and fight at lightheavy or cruiser he has,nt even got a big frameQuote:
