Chavez Jr. vs. Manfredo Jr chat/fight thread + the Pac-JMM III replay tonight on HBO

[Spicoli]

I dimly remember picking Manfredo to beat Bika + ....I'll go as far as hoping and wanting him to whip Chavez part deaux. I think Rubio beats Chavez right now.

Honestly suprised this steaming nugget is a HBO main event (?) Finally get to see JMM vs Pac!!!!

Spicoli, I'm pretty sure they're going to show the Pac-JMM III replay tonight first, a little bit after 10:30 PM EST or about 2 hours from now. If possible, HBO usually shows the replay of their PPV's the following week.

Cool, thanks. That is one I seriously regret not shelling out the bucks for rather than wait the week. Seeing a fight on replay is not nearly the same. Oh and I'm picking Marquez

I actually quite like Manfredo. I became a fan after I watched that story on FNF about how he had to get a job working on the ground crew at an arena he used to sell out. He made a lot of money, invested it, and then lost everything when the economy went tits up. I can respect that. I hope he pulls off the upset tonight and lands one last big money fight.

I'm pullin' for Manfredo, it just won't be easy for him getting the nod down in Houston, Texas.

Good choice!, apparently the consensus of opinion is he actually "won" the fight, so we shall see.

BTW, I'm glad I didn't buy the PPV.

No, it won't. I think the best he can realistically hope for is a close, profile-raising loss that most people consider a robbery. He's not going to beat Jr. by a wide enough margin to get the nod.

I think he'll probably get stopped somewhere in the mid-rounds or lose a wide UD, but I'll be cheering for him regardless.

24/7 Cotto/Margarito is on right now.

Alrighty, HBO is going to show the the Pac-JMM III replay, coming up right now.

[Spicoli]

Manfredo looks...sleeeepy in the locker room.

[Mars_ax]

3-3 even up, just bumped other thread...booze kicking in

[ruthless rocco]

pac 4-2 mar

[Spicoli]

Pac looked like he resorted to countering the counter puncher...rnd 8 was like trying to pass a stone!? Tough one to score

Pac looks like patchwork and choppy....Marquez plays counter waaay to much I think for a third go and last hoorah

Wow, round 9. Good schtuff! Honestly...I don't see a 'robbery' so far

Anyone who calls the fight a robbery is being hyperbolic. I thought Marquez won, but there were so many close rounds that it could have gone either way. Just like their other two fights.

I've got it Pacquiao up 6-4 after 10, he's the aggressor and busier.
