Big Ears

As the thread title says , the card for tonight is:

Manny Pacquiao v Marco Antonio Barrera(WBC International title)

Steven Luevano v Antonio Davis(WBO Featherweight title)

Librado Andrade v Yusea Mack(USBA Super-Middleweight title)

Francisco Bojado v Steve Forbes

Vicente Escobedo v Miguel Angel Munguia

Also some other prospects on the card


That's the HBO card which is being shown on Setanta , also tonight we have:
Samuel Peter v Jameel McCline(WBC interim Heavyweight title)

Daniel Santos v Jose Antonio Rivera

DaVarryl Williamson v Kali Meehan

Andrew Golota v Kevin McBride

plus some prospects , that card is being shown on Showtime in America but not over here at all .

Should be a good nights boxing , I reckon Pacquiao stops Barrera .
Luevano drops Davis before winning on points .
Andrade wins a decision .
Bojado wins a close decision and Escobedo wins wide on points .

Peter to win wide on points , Santos on points , TOS stops Meehan and Golota does McBride in 2 rounds .

I'll be watching tonight - the ridiculous night owl that I am:o

Likewise i expect Pacman to stop Barrera, probably late on.

Pacman won comprehensively very one sided.

*spolier*
*can't find the tags*




















was dissapointing barrera only went out with a wimper,some flashes no where near enough though one judge had it 115-112 how did he mark it that close.barrera got deducted a point that means that he only had pac man winning by two rounds

Pacman beat a slower barrera had him win 9 or 10 rounds. Great atmosphere in the mandalay bay, lots of rivalary between the sets of fans.

Undercard not the strongest good night was had.

Probably not going to happen , Pacman is looking to move up to Lightweight now(he's having trouble making Super Feather due to what I believe is poor dedication to training) and Katsidis is a possible opponent .

I think Pac has lost his desire for success . He's getting concerned in things like politics and tbh he looked in terrible shape for this fight(compared to his usual self) . He doesn't seem to want to fight Marquez , Soto , Guzman either and is instead looking at a safer route to a legacy .

I can see him being beat very soon .

There's one fight I want to see pacman take more than any other and that's Edwin Valero.

Bombs away !!

That really is a shame, he is (or maybe was) a great talent. I can remember watching the first Barrera fight and being completely blown away by him. Ok it turned out Barrera saying he had flu or something, but he was really beaten up in that fight, the Pacman schooled him which is something I just didn't see happening to Barrera beforehand.
Disappointed I missed this fight, even if it was an anti-climax. I heard Barrera saying he'd trained harder than ever, but all the talk of this being his last fight - I think he was brave to take it but in reality was just a little over the hill. Barrera will be considered a legend in my book though
