Round By Round: Floyd Mayweather vs. Juan Manuel Marquez

good fight so far.

 

Damn with the exception of Kellerman the HBO crew likes them some Lock cock.

 

Lock: I feel tight...

Trainer: then get loose...

:dunno:

 

Lock most be from Detroit...cause Manny is blowing him tonight....


and down goes CRUZ...it should be OVER......it's OVER>...

 

Ohh another muslim...:cheer:

 

Kats vs. Esco might be another nice slugfest.....but then we will be bored to death by John vs. Juarez II...

 

Worth his PPV slot. Credit to both fighters. :bears::bears:

 

nice KO. lock's a decent spoiler.

 

agree...the problem w/ fight like this is that they don't mean much in the landscape of boxing......but good job by both fighters...

 

Pacquiao vs. Cotto is getting a 24/7......okay....usually u need an asshole to make the show fun....maybe Roach will fill that spot.

 

escobedo is mediocre imo. i hope katsidis beats his ass.

 

This fight can only be a letdown after all it´s the fight that is supposed to be great and we already had three great slugfests on Showtime yesterday and today´s opener.
