Pacquaio vs Mayweather

[sggatecl]

As the board's resident combat sports enthusiast, I figured it was my duty to start this thread!

I'll do a semi round by round as I'm in the middle of a Crohn's attack and watching at home in bed.

Too very, very unlikable guys. I'm just hoping they don't shit the bed and under perform. I couldn't care less who wins.

I'm a fan of Manny. I would be a fan of Floyd if he didn't beat more women than men. Looking forward to the greatest fight ever to happen 5 years too late.

Damn bro, I feel for you. I have Crohns too. And I loves me my combat sports, so I know how miserable I would be if I had an attack tonight.

Had to be really careful what I ate today.

I finished off my kid's apple and didn't peel the skin off first. The little things..

I'll be headed to the ER in the morning if it doesn't fix itself, I haven't eaten a thing since Friday.

It's amazing that I'm not celiac, but gluten seems to be my worst enemy, especially fried foods. If I eat KFC, I will automatically do what I call Quart of Blood technique. That's where I sit on the toilet, and a quart of blood falls out of my ass.

Those of you who have seen Trading Places will find humor in the reference.

My wife is Celiac. I'd rather have Crohn's.

My big no-no's are fatty/oily foods, vegetables/fruit with skin, leafy greens, and nuts. Gluten and spicy foods are ok for me. It's crazy how diets differ between Crohn's patients, there is no "right" one.

Yep, was just explaining that to my son. Mentioned to him a buddy online has Crohns and he said "Well, no KFC for him". I was telling him every Crohn's patient is different both in what they can eat, and how it effects them.

Private jets for the fight at McCarran airport.

I was going to list the notable people I saw during the fight but it became exhausting after 5 minutes. So much money there.

Freddie Roach warming up Manny. It amazes me how well he moves with Parkinson's. Good for him.

If that building got bombed right now, Hollywood would be bankrupt, and you and I might be starting for the Lions next season.

Yeah, no shit there. Freddie is amazing on those pads. Didn't even lose a step.

I was just telling my wife that it's probably the most secure building in the United States right now.

Go Manny! I won't be watching but might keep up here.

They said a bit ago that ONE person, and wouldn't say who, dropped $100MM on this fight.

Then I see Michael Jordan come in and it all made sense.

I wouldn't doubt it for a second. Him and Mayweather are the first two that come to mind.

I love spending time with my son watching sports, because he doesn't watch much other than hockey.

But it's hard to watch boxing with someone predicting Manny knows Mayweather out in the first round. Since when has Manny ever had that kind of knockout power to take on a man who barely gets hit and put him down that fast?

I'm in Manny's corner on this one, but if this ends in an early knockout, it's Floyd's fight.

 

[inkfreq]

Why do I suddenly want to put a Tecate in my mouth and suck it down slowly, then faster, then slower.... wtf?

Crowd giving Mayweather the business out there.

 

[sggatecl]

Round 1: Feeling each other out for the first 60 seconds until Floyd lands a nice straight. Floyd looks much bigger as everyone expected. Crowd is heavy in Manny's corner, cheering wildly at anything that he throws whether it hits or not. Floyd didn't come out slow as he's prone to, landing a couple rights. They tie up for the final 10 seconds.

Round 1 to Floyd via volume, nothing significant.
