Mayweather Vs Pacquiao

[Crossless2.0]

I have a hard time picking a winner in this fight (though I'm pulling for Manny). Maybe it will be a controversial draw, and we can wait six damn years for the anti-climactic rematch.

Might actually be worth a daft bet on the draw. Payout will likely be pretty big and it's probably more likely to happen than most other fights, I certainly wouldn't be surprised if this fight is controversial for a dodgy judge's decision.

Saw Manny on First Take this morning. He said "god has brought Floyd to me and will deliver him unto me."

Stephen A. Smith was turning the interview into a circus, as usual.

Now I have to root for Floyd.

Just recently, too, Pacquiao proudly expressed to two sports columnists that he actually thinks that Mayweather is afraid of losing to him (and their reactions gave me lolz):

He's not exactly wrong. Mayweather is afraid and has been for five years. Afraid of losing. Not necessarily Manny. That Manny poses his biggest threat in his entire career is what has made him make the fight as difficult as possible to put on.

That interview was annoying as hell though. Black guy needs to take a chill pill.


On a side note, Miguel Cotto has fought both guys and he reckons Manny is going to win.

Stephen A. Smith is a clown. He's taken it upon himself to be the promoter of this fight, and has started acting like a hype man.

He's got his own SNL trope, he's such a clown.

I couldn't care less whether they believe in god. The thing with Manny is a lot of his god talk is for his audience back home in the Philippines. It's part of his brand, there was one fight where he nearly forgot to do his routine 'praying in the corner' after the win, and one of his entourage was seen yelling at him to get in the corner. He's probably not as religious as is made out, but it's just a part of his persona, especially to his home fans.

I used to hate boxing, actually still do. But I no longer like I used to want it outlawed. I simply cant get into the idea of going out of your way to get your brains beat in. Long term that destroys your body. But then again, I like the NFL and head injuries are a growing problem and one the sport hid for a long time.

I guess really you still have to let humans make their own choices. But I simply hate how evolution has played out to where men have to prove themselves to everyone. I think far too many in our male species don't understand how fragile they are in reality. But like I said, you'll wont change evolution even if you can make more people aware.
