Oh well, I hope someone gets to watch it live.
Only two places in Taupo are televising it and I don't think I can be bothered fighting the crowd.

Fucking tell me about it! Went over the road to the local...people are twenty deep on the footpath outside trying to get a glimpse at the TVs inside! I'm dead keen to see it...but not that keen!
Just faidin away!
Sounds like one of those bullshit milk it for what it's worth and rematch fights - glad I never succumbed to the temptation to waste $50.00!

The power of advertising eh Pete? it's been the ''in thing'' over the last few weeks, this time tomorrow the ridiculous hysteria will cease and you'll be able to buy a beer without touching people. At least 70% of the 'be seen to give a shit' group watching the fight would not have even heard of at least 50% of the two in the ring. God bless Boxing.
Leonard V Duran 1980 was where Welterweight Boxing started, and stopped.
Whip it, whip it good!
I skim read this and read, like that bullshit milk...

Well that little exhibition puts to rest the old adage: "You can run but you can't hide" - in boxing! - Mayweather ran and hid all night behind the judges!
Fight? - he did next to nothing and won on points!- How?
Mayweather only had to turn up and not get knocked down to win the fight! (and the appearance money)
Pacquaio would have had to knock Mayweather out to win! - Couldn't catch him - so he loses? - What a farce!
It was only a show event - not a fight - American professional boxing was the looser on the day!IMHO!

...cheers, I was kind of pissed off I couldn't watch it live but now I'm glad I didn't try and bend time to see it...no doubt I'll get to see it but, did Manny punch the target well?...

I didn't watch the fight - but this tends to disagree with you:Well that little exhibition puts to rest the old adage: "You can run but you can't hide" - in boxing! - Mayweather ran and hid all night behind the judges!

True! - So many men so many opinions. I watched most of the fight later at a friends place who had recorded it and invited me to watch it!
True! - I had the preconceived opinion that if the fight went the distance the scorecards of the judges would favour Mayweather regardless! (America!)
My opinion is just my own of course but I was a serious amateur boxer in my youth and do have an idea of judging the difference between scoring and non scoring!
The only non contestable result is a TKO (unable to continue) or a knock-out so everything else is simply someone else's opinion!
If you are an official judge - then your opinion is what counts - then it becomes judgement of the judges and here we all are!
I disagree with the official judges!
In a game of rugby you can defend your line all game for a draw but you have to attack and cross "their line" for a win!
Mayweather failed to do that more than Pacquaio did - IMHO! - Ever watched the Olympic boxing? --

I was hugely disappointed with the outcome of the fight but hey, at least I got to collect on my 13+ to the Kiwis bet.

With that much money involved the fix *had* to be in.

Oops - it looks like Pacquiao was less than up front with his supporters and the match officials etc about his pre-fight shoulder condition - not a good look!
Sounds like he may be facing more than he bargained for in the courts now? - Mayweather might come out of all this as the good guy after-all.Ouch!

I know i'm a bit late as I only just joined the community but Manny never stood a chance, I made a few easy chocolate bars on that fight. I think the excuses by Manny would have lost him some respect.
