    I'm just POed they made me look a fool for incorrectly calling Tanks opponent. Predicting apparently isn't for me. Lesson learned.

    Does Badou Jack vs Nathan Cleverly make this crappy 'event' more worth it now .

    Cleverly fights with his face first now and any skill he had seems to have gone out of the window. He has obviously brought in to allow Jack to win the title but hope Nathan can win this fight. Beat jack when Groves and De Gale have not been able to.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Are they releasing bad footage of Floyd training to help sell the idea of the upset? I have yet to see one thing where he doesn't look stiff, slow and lazy. Like showing bad footage then when cameras go off he's busting ass and smooth, strong and fast.

    I just have a hard time believing someone that has been in the gym that long can see this stuff and think it is good work. But we have seen old fighters repeatedly not realize how crap they are now. So I don't know if it is for show or if Floyd is shot to shite

    Well he has been off for like 2 years and he's old so I'm sure he has slowed quite a bit. As I have always said though, Floyd would in no way make this fight if he weren't 100% sure he would win.

    Maybe it was his plan all along to fight mcgregor for his 50th. I can see it.

    Floyd: I want to make my 50th win a comeback from retirement fight.
    Whoever: but Floyd, that's a long layoff and you will slow down a ton. You may lose your 0!
    Floyd: not if I box someone who has never boxed before.

    Call me a conspiracy theorist but i'm sure the bookies want you to splash your cash on Gregory to reign in the zillions.

    Another wacky idea is that Paulie who rubs shoulders with people in the media who rub shoulders with the promoters who rub shoulders with the bookies who rub shoulders with media could play a nice part of espionage in getting paulie involved with sparring with Gregory so he can look bad in sparring then a video is leaked to make the public think that Gregory has a chance to get people to place more bets on Gregory then reigning it in when Gregory gets a severe beating.

    Or Mayweather is being fooled by Paulie where Paulie meets with Mayweathers camp without anybody knowing and leaks some info on Gregorys tactics that is a complete lie so when fight night happens mayweather is expecting something totally different and Gregory wins by surprize.



    Its all bollox folks

    Gregor has no chance.....Zero...Nothing...Not a bollock.. Not a bat out of hell.. No chance on the planet so spash your cash and have a laugh.

    Didn't realize they switched from Martinez to an unknown unranked 8 round fighter Francisco Fonseca. This is what TBA gets ya.

    I was really hoping that Floyd would put together a good undercard. We all assumed Jack and Davis would be on it but I'm not impressed by their opponents. Davis is fighting an unknown and Jack is fighting a washed up fighter.

    Agreed big time. I don't know if Cleverly is exactly washed up, but I don't think he'd ever have had a good style for this one. The guy Davis is fighting could be good Still, for such a mega cash grab of a card you'd at least expect a couple of interesting fights on it.
