    hahaha sorry guys ...too many nights on the beer is frying those brain cells.

    prettyboy - its not on PPV, on normal sky sports. coverage starts at 2am i think

    hopefully sky will show johns fight and diaz v sotto as well.....they should do cause i looked up the hbo top rank tv schedule and its says they will have those fights covered on tv and sky gets the hbo satilette feed.

    cant wait to see john fight in front of a huge crowd even though hes done the garden etc i think this will be special guys

    digme - yeh all i want to do is download so if you create an torrent with pacman v clottey, and undercard i would be hugely appreciate it. i think i can speak for joe penguin in this respect too and i,m sure we have other guys here on the forum that would really apprciate this.

    cheers guys

    As for me Pacman is the best boxer there is in this lifetime. Hed proven and downed so many great boxers and garnered titles no man had ever achieved. I bet even if pacman KOs clottey mosley and mayweather thered still be doubters here..

    I've always thought of Manny as the far smaller man in his recent fights since hes moved up. And then when you see him in the weigh ins especially against Hatton and Cotto, you realise my god Manny is almost the same size. (granted Oscar was a bigger man but he looked weak).

    For the first time I was taken aback by the size difference, Clottey looks the bigger man by some distance and reports that he may come in at 160 tonight won't be too far out id imagine. Seeing them standing aside each other at the weigh in brought that feeling home.

    They do say speed kills, but Clottey can only be hurt to the body tonight as he has a high guard. I get a bad feeling about this fight, I really wanna see Manny and PBF fight but just think there may be a spanner in the works. I just have a gut feeling.

    I'm going out on a limb on this one, Clottey to stop Manny in the early to middle rounds.

    Duddy needs oiling. He is very plodding and stiff and lacking speed and sharpness

    Defo lacked sharpness. Footwork a little slow and stayed in Medinas jab range at all times with little to no head movement. Think he treated this like the howe fight where he tried to box for the duration of the fight and not take risks.

    nah its this laptop. even when you leave boards on an closed tab for a period of time and go back the screen will just be grey. its a matter of the streams appearing as opposed to the quality which i hear for this on is quite good. none of them working now for me.

    I dunno, 50k in the audience, why would you bother going to it.. you would see nothing at all.. at an average of 1000 dollars a ticket..

    I' with you on that. The average price is 600 dollars from what I have heard, in Vegas it goes to 1000. Anyway, unless I was in one of thos comfy ringside
    seats that Jerry Jones and Arum is in, then forget it, I ain't paying.

    Haven't seen Oscar yet. I wonder if he is at this, or is he hiding from Pacman after he stabbed him in the back?

    they did indeed say that, actually have a mate at this and he says he paid $45 dollars for his ticket but id imagine his view is somewhat restricted. big screens are supposed to be deadly in the cowboys stadium though.

    Well I heard it on the stream.. I spose that could mean the most outer seated ticket is 10 dollars and the most inner is 10k, but that's what I heard the average was.

    here we go people .. Hope Pacquiao wins..

    Oh so suddenly you need a "my cock is bigger than yours" plasma screen to see sly sports? Yeah right!!!!!! A portable would do! :D


    You paid for a stream? :eek: I paid just over £100 2&1/2 years ago and have every single channel available with no monthly fee(ppv/movies/all the dirt)...best thing I;ve ever bought

    Maybe they did, I heard 600, or at least I thought I did. You could well be right. Maybe the 600 was ringside seats...
