No, I won't, but I'm surprised how people don't really talk about the 7 domestic abuse charges he has against 5 different women. That's the face of boxing they want to promote?

I won't be watching the fight anyway- we have plans to go out tonight, so I'm sure I'll hear all about it tomorrow, anywhere and everywhere.

Chilling by the Airforce base in Shreveport today. They have an airshow going on today. Pretty cool! Blue Angels are here. I've decided I'm going to buy a new grill when the show is over. Fire up the grill and get the fight. $89.99 With all the hype about it though, I want to see it!

Steven Bell is gonna have wood.

Adam, I am not familiar, but I don't like all his shit talking. Manny ain't no saint either...hopefully they whoop some decency into each other tonight.

Mayweather is too fast and has a tough defense to land clean shots. A lot of the top guys have just enough defense but rely on their hands. Mayweather is fast and has the hands, but doesn't rely on them. He's looking for clean counter punches and making Manny open up. He's not undefeated out of luck.

If you watch Pacquiao vs Bradley deux, you'll see that although Manny has the angles and the footwork, a good defense gives him fits and makes him open. He's also an emotional fighter and Mayweather isn't. If Manny smells blood he opens up, he'll leave himself open as well (which is how Marquez put his lights out).

Mayweather is happy just sticking to his game and picking his opponent apart. It could be Manny's downfall. I see it going to decision win for Mayweather. Could be a decision win upset for Manny, but with the deck stacked against Manny, I doubt it.. unless they are just taking it to the bank and milking a rematch.

Mayweather talks shit and has a lot of personal issues, but he's really a master of the game. It's easy to hate him.. as well that douche Jon Jones.. but you have to respect their skill. I don't think he out boxes Manny. In most cases, they outbox their opponent. Their speed and style will make for a complex match, hopefully a great one. Look for Mayweather to jam Manny's feet while turning away from Manny's lead turn left hook. Mayweather will have his eyes open.. he doesn't want to cover up and take a beating like Margarito or Cotto did.


I thought pacman won.. fuck it.. :thief: I'm riiiichhhh biiiitcchhhhhh!!

Shiet...they both had shit eating grins at the end. We're not hurt, and we're both over 100 Million Richer. We both won!

Yeah, ref kept them from hugging the entire time and didn't allow any lulls...he did well.

If seeing stuff you want makes you want it so badly you can't control yourself...don't live in South Florida. Cars, women and houses I'll likely never afford are a daily sight.

i spent the weekend fixing or re-routing the coax cable outside and into the house.
internet went out and I had noticed a ground wire not connected to the ground. we recently had storms and I concluded that lightening must have taken out a coax component, either the splitters or cable itself.
found out by process of elimination, that the main coax cable is dead.
fixed that and didnt have to call comcast.

Morning all

Boxing isn't what it used to be. I enjoyed the fight because of it being a technical/fundamentals match but I think most people didn't like it because it wasn't a slugfest with 348948 knockdowns.

Was it worth the 5 years of buildup/hype? Meh.

I don't know ANYONE that was actually rooting for Mayweather. The entire audience booed as he was giving his victory "FUCK YOU HATERS".. God i hate that guy. I wasn't hopeful Pacman would have won and the fight went as expected but damn it would have been great to see the underdog win. Also I hope Pacman goes through with this just to stick it to Mayweather:Pacquiao set to donate half of £80m fight prize money | Boxing | Sport | Daily Express


Oh also the icing on the cake was seeing Bieber in Mayweather's entourage..... :killmenow:

Bieber and Lil Wayne.

I don't know... I think it's pretty obvious Mayweather didn't "win" this... it's just Pacquiao who lost. I've rarely seen fights this boring and lame, and never after so much hype. Glad I didn't pay to watch it or get mad overpriced tickets like some people did.

Yeah, i just mooched off some friends who were having a party and didn't chip in because that's how i roll..

I definitely agree that Mayweather didn't 'win' that fight but that's not going to stop him from bragging about it. He doesn't have that trait called 'humility' that I was hoping pacman could serve.


A lot of people calling "RIGGED" now. Whatchu guys think?

didnt watch the fight; but with Mayweather's style of boxing, every one knew he would be dancing around the ring.

also, mainstream stuffs bore me.
the only recent mainstream entertainment that I contributed to was Fast7. because Paul Walker.

Avengers Age of Ultron!! We went to watch it late after the fight and it was SPECTACULAR.


Crabby, you'd enjoy it. I'm sure Yummy would enjoy it too. pew pew iron man pew pew Ultron. There were some very subtle social messages in it too. I loved it

I don't see valid reasons why it would be rigged.
Money for the fighters? Both parties have a bunch and would have had a bunch no matter what. So unless they held Pacman's family hostage...
Rigged by the judges? I think the judging was fine. I'm not denying the outcome of the fight. It happened and even though I don't think Mayweather should have won prior to the fight, Pacquiao hardly shown his usual self when it came to it and Mayweather won with the points.

Round 1 and 2 nothing
round 3 Mayweather shoulders thing
round 4 Pacquiao pushes Mayweather in the ropes
round 5 Mayweather gets center control
round 6 some hugging
round 7 meh not much
round 8 Mayweather punches Pacquiao and runs around
round 9, 10 AND 11 nothing
round 12 Mayweather taps dances some more

By now I am asleep. ZZZ

Also went to see Avengers on the weekend. It was good. At some point it gets a bit long, during the fighting and saving part at the end, not sure we need to see so much of it... No spoilers, but you guys know.

The one thing left outstanding on my car is the compliance bushings. I said in the past that I had them done, and they were supposed to have been (I have the bushings sitting in my garage), but the guy who was supposed to do them ended up moving away, leaving me hooped.

I need to get them done now. How much effort is it to remove the entire lower control arm? Judging by the parts diagram, just looks like the Swaybar endlink attaches to it, along with only three other bolts. Is that it? Is it easy to remove?

I'm thinking of pulling them off tomorrow and taking them to a shop to have the new bushings pressed in. Too cheap to pay to have it all done
