Re: Mayweather vs Pacquiao
It's not worth the $100 they're charging for it here in the US. I tried to get a few friends to pitch in, but not enough interest.
Mexico's getting it for free on two different networks, but I'm 1600 miles from the nearest border crossing.

Re: Mayweather vs Pacquiao
I absolutely love boxing! Whether I'm watching it or fighting myself, I enjoy it. However, that fight was complete B.S.
In one of the undercard fights, one of the fighters was deducted a point for holding. Why wasn't the same done to Mayweather? Any time Pacquiao was gaining steam, he would use his size to hold his head down and cause the referee to break it up and then they'd separate.
In my opinion, Mayweather won in points by being a dirty fighter as he always is.

I am glad an American have the same thought as we Filipinos. Mayweather was a winner in running and hugging.

Re: Mayweather vs Pacquiao
What a boring fight. Manny needed a knockout or to absurdly dominate to win a decision. I don't think that the judges would have decided he won otherwise.
MMA definitely has better action, I've never seen an MMA fight that consisted of hugging and running. I think boxing will eventually die out, especially if people shell out money and fighters don't deliver. I was reading some hardcore boxing fans who dislike that opinion, but most people are not hardcore boxing fans and expect to see some action. Everyone I know said it was a mistake paying $100 for the fight and won't pay for the rematch.

Agreed, and because they want the American to win, they won't penalize him for it.

To be fair Manny didn't really do enough to win, probably because he was carrying an injury into the fight.
Saying that Mayweather maybe technically great, but he is the most booooooooooooooorrrrrrrrring fighter to watch ever!!!!!!
I would never pay to watch a Mayweather fight and i am glad he is retiring

I agree with you, Manny was not aggressive during the fight. But did you hear the news that Mayweather was spying on Manny during his training? Mayweather said he knows everything that is happening while Manny is on training.

Re: Mayweather vs Pacquiao
Manny may not be as aggressive but still he was the aggressor in the fight, and if its true that Mayweather knows about the injury and still runs away then he really is afraid of Manny, injured or not.

Occasionally so. Ask some of the blokes across the pond about Football or JMcIlhinney about cricket and that will get things riled up.

Yup Courtney Laws is kinda known for his tackling though, puts in huge hits !!
It does help that he is 6.7 Ft and about 18.5 stone (or Height: 2.01 m , Weight: 118 kg)
I'm sure he already knows.
I think the reason why Aussie Rules may be popular with Americans is that it mimics many of your national sports as in your the only ones that play them
Although to be fair Aussie Rules is basically a rip off of Irish Gaelic Football which is really really nuts.
That and Curling which is a bit like hockey but the main aim if the game seems to be hitting the opponents with your stick rather than the ball, or firing the ball at an opponents head!

I that curling was the game where you polish ice in front of a stone to try and knock it into a bull's-eye, knock one of the opponents stones out of play, or both.

Re: Mayweather vs Pacquiao
Curling is basically shuffleboard on ice and as such a weird, quirky sport it could have only been invented by Canadians bored silly with long winters of four hours of sunlight per day.
And I like Rugby, too... We have a semi-pro women's team that plays their games in a city park near my house. I often stop to watch purely for their athletic prowess and certainly not because I'm a dirty old man who thoroughly enjoys watching fit, nubile young women chase each other around and tackle each other in the mud.
Nope, it's purely for their athletic prowess...

If it helps folks picture hurling, think La Cross but waaaaay more violent. When it comes to bringing mindless violence to sports the Irish are right up there with the Canadians.
