speaking of boxing, did anyone order the berto vs mayweather fight? I knew it was going to be bullshit so I sat this one out.

Is mayweather that gd that someone can throw 300 odd jabs and only connect with maybe 10% of them ?..maybe he is but he chose that fight to go out knowing he could make it last 12 rounds without fear of losing so he could show boat himself in his so called last fight ...now if he could give manny pac one more go to see if he could make it 50-0.....theres a stat that you can build a business on..
Imagine the logo on clothes and hats etc even boxing equipment in gyms...50 zip

Got a nice ring to it hasnt it.

Mayweather is just that good. Do you know anyone else that is 38 years of age that is even close to doing what he can? Manny had his chance and got out classed easily. I dont even like Mayweather. My favorite boxer is Andre Ward.

Dont get me wrong im not a hater just thought if your going out on one last fight it could have been a better opponent than berto.
Im.a big fan of danny green,prince nazeem from the uk and mike tyson.
Pretty diverse group there but boxing is boxing and entertainment comes up trumps when watching a fight for me

I'll NEVER order a Mayweather fight.....NEVER!
His fights are so damn boring and always disappointing. I hate his style, run, run, run, duck punch.
I'm old school though. My father was a huge fight fan and always made an effort to watch the big fights (most classics now). I was young during the Ali, Frazier, Norton, Foreman era, but I do remember how my father and his buds acted during those fights.....crazy!
I became a "real" fan when the Welterweights were the top draw. Leonard, Duran, Hearns, Hagler, Arguello, those boys went toe 2 toe back then. I think the best round I've ever witnessed was Hearns vs. Hagler. I still like boxing, but I've evolved into a MMA/UFC fan. I did some photography work for a few teams/media outlets and would sit cage side watching those fights. Some talented dudes fighting. Here's a couple of my shots.

The top picture was some no name getting his ass kick than knocked the dude out with that punch. The second picture is James "the sandman" Irvin (ex- UFC fighter, see his flying knee vs. Terry Martin) with the flying knee to Doug Marshall (ex Bellator middle weight champ). I had LOTS of fun photographing those fights.
