A few things...
We've got 2 floors for the event.
Floor #1: Lounge.
Drinks, appetizers, entertainment, music, dancers etc. etc. etc.
Security is tight here so please Superheavy, SalTheButcher, JTRock watch your drinking and take it easy. Don't want anyone getting arrested on foreign land. Not that were scared of the French or anything as I'm sure they wouldn't even put up a fight vs. the Saddo Army. ;D :army:

Also at the door we have BoxingGorilla who's good with words and is willing to talk about things. If that doesn't work VD is sitting in a VIP area right next to the entrance and believe me he can't wait to be interrupted and told "Excuse me Mr. VD, we need your assistance at the door" ;D

So there you have it the people at SaddoBoxing have spoken...
The votes were counted and the winners were awarded.
A handful of people left categories blank and or like I said only list 1 so if you had 2 names your vote was void. :( sorry...
Alright well now it's party time, I invite you all to go back down stairs for some drinking, dancing and entertainment... :cool:
Nice presentation there CMM. :thumb:
All I have to say is......
I can't believe I forgot to vote. :11fb8:
Oh well, I agree with most of it.
DAMN!!
You looking fine Diane, break me off some... :lickish:
I love the way that dress looks on you nice and tight.
Save me a dance... :cool:
Shame on you for that... :furious2:
I can't believe you didn't vote.
I can ALMOST tell you never mind about saving me a dance and about breaking me off some. :(
I'm sure you'll make it up to me..
Good Job Mick. I'll be looking for you to host the Grammies next year. :coolclick:
nice thread
Very nice brother looks great, but erm I need some help with this tie.
LOL!! Well thank you. :-*
Just wait until you see me shake it in this dress. This girl has some moves out on the dance floor, and you'll be damn glad that you didn't ALMOST tell me nevermind. ;D
I can't believe I forgot either. When you first post this thread, I knew what I wanted to vote for, but I was waiting till the fight season was done for the year, and then I just plain forgot about it. I know, I know.
Did anyone else see that scuffle? Zab Judah apparently traded some words with someone and got himself knocked out...
Yes, I was in the V.I.P. area talking to Violent Demise and Spicoli, when Zab came up behind me, grabbed my a$$, and asked if I was wearing anything under there.
And before I could even turn around to smack him upside the head, Violent Demise jumped on him, and knocked him out cold.
;D
Where the hell is kingfrnk :mad: that fucker has highjacked the DJ and somehow rewired it for the last fucken hour all I've heard is Lil. Wayne playing... :furious2:
Also for those who like the "snow" ;) Smashups in the restroom...
So this is France?Zab was trying a lil to hard to fit it throwing that white flag around and needs to go out there and get back to work parking our cars :action:.Slacker!!
Is there a 'smoking' section in this place :cool:.Great work Mick,awesome stuff.
I think the aroma from the patio is C-Lo, I've got a feeling those cigars he has are not stuffed with tobacco... ;) :wackomz4:
Remember we have look outs ontop of the tower just incase ROCKYMARSHMELLOW, Magnum, SOB, Moono, landmine950, Royal, LawHoops or anyone of those fellas show up...
Well hit the light switch and turn everything off and keep quiet like nothings happening here. ;D
Watch out. SaddoBoxer and Julius Rain are bellowing "There's only one Manny Pacquiao" in the lobby.
Pride Of Boston and CFH are heading straight to them, they're sick of there Pac antics and want to end this once and for all...
"Security" :action:
:zzwhip: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qB2YAgMzv7k :fking:
I'll help you with that. ;D
Ummm, you might want to alert security, I see Saddoboxer trying to gain access. I heard he wants to get Manny to sign the backpiece of Manny he has, so that he can go to the tattoo shop tomorrow, and have the signature permanently tattoo'd. Plus, I think the restraining order is still active too.
Who's on Security by the way ?
