Convicted repeat woman-beater vs homophobe. It's a tough choice.
― Djibril Citté (onimo), Tuesday, 15 May 2012 17:57 (twelve years ago) link
hmm yeah think the convicted repeat woman-beater is probably just a bit worse than the fundie moron

I realized the other day that 99.9999% of the reason I hate floyd is because he's ducking Manny, so in some universe in which he wasn't ducking him I really wouldn't have a problem rooting for him.

Manny's pretty bullshit these days anyway but if you read Ryan Songalia in re: the paper that "broke" that Pacquiao story, it's pretty shady

I'm not gonna get up in arms about him opposing gay marriage considering how many of the greatest boxers and how many of my favorite boxers were basically sociopaths.

David Price looked terrific vs. Sexton, hard to argue he's not the top heavyweight prospect.

fantastic atmosphere in Nottingham.

bookies dont give Froch a chance at all

after that round they might be wrong. What a round.

Bute's legs look dodgy.
― it looks like something rupert the bear would wear (Algerian Goalkeeper), Saturday, 26 May 2012 23:36 (twelve years ago) link
All over. What a performance by Froch!!!!!!!!!!!!!
― it looks like something rupert the bear would wear (Algerian Goalkeeper), Saturday, 26 May 2012 23:37 (twelve years ago) link
He's given Bute a real doing here.
― it looks like something rupert the bear would wear (Algerian Goalkeeper), Saturday, 26 May 2012 23:38 (twelve years ago) link
if you get the chance to watch this then please do so. What a performance by Froch. As good as i've seen in britain in years. it surpassed the atmosphere!

Everyones saying thats up there with *that* Hatton fight and im inclined to agree

I missed this, wasn't being shown where I'm at but BadLeftHook's account of it suggests it was a master class by Froch
― cosi fan whitford (underrated aerosmith bootlegs I have owned), Sunday, 27 May 2012 01:52 (twelve years ago) link
it was. He was devastating.

After his impressive battering of Bute, he said: 'Fighting like that, I'd beat anybody in my weight division. There's nobody that can touch me. If I catch Ward on the chin with some of the shots like I landed on Bute, it's game over. It's a simple as that.
'Andre Ward had a good night and Carl Froch had a bad night and that's the reason he won that fight.

apart from the weird third person, i didn't see that at all, ward just looked a lot better
― Éden Éden Éden / H.A.Z.A.R.D (nakhchivan), Sunday, 27 May 2012 22:51 (twelve years ago) link
he did but anyone can have an offnight. Plus Froch says he didn't stick to his plan.
― it looks like something rupert the bear would wear (Algerian Goalkeeper), Sunday, 27 May 2012 22:58 (twelve years ago) link
Bute took such a beating id expect him to retire as i dont think a fighter can recover from such a hiding. The referee couldve stopped it earlier.

Paul "The Punisher" Williams, on the comeback trail after that very memorable KO by Sergio Martinez, was in a motorcycle accident today and is likely paralyzed from the waist down. He is said to be in good spirits considering the gravity of his injuries; obviously he won't be fighting Alvarez in September. He gets surgery on Wednesday, let's think good thoughts for that.

Also, Johnny Tapia died. Sad stuff.

"Something like this is so outlandish, it's a death knell for the sport. This is f------ nuts. I have both guys, and I'll make a lot of money in the rematch, but it's ridiculous. You have these old f---- who don't know what the hell they're looking at. It's incompetence. Nobody who knows anything about boxing could have Bradley ahead in the fight."

Amir Khan vs. Danny Garcia tonight. Amir Khan seems like a really fucking unpleasant person to me, his press conference post-Peterson was just ugggghhhh, but he'll probably win.

i sort of like him
he's def a toerag tho....record of dangerous driving convictions

He's a chinny sore losing fuck but is great to watch.
Missing Haye vs Chisora tonight - was hoping one would have just decked the other at the weigh in tbh. Damming indictment of the heavyweights that one of these clowns might get another title shot.

Khan dirtier in round 2 but still dominant. 20-18 Khan according to me so far

AMAZING surprise 3rd round knockdown by Garcia!! he was getting his hat handed to him and then put Khan on his ass!!!

counterpunching...the sweetest
standing knockdown at top of round 4. Khan's in trouble
