SE Boxing Thread (not waiting for PBF v. Pac II) - Page 160 - Sporting Events and Fantasy Sports

I know dick about boxing but I've watched plenty of fights. That's gotta considered be a premature stop by the corner, right? Especially because it was for the belt?

I mean... maybe, but who knows their fighter better than the corner? I really can't complain as the 11th was pretty brutal for Vazquez and he had zero going for him in the 12th. Looked like it was just a matter of time imo.

As a guy who runs a fair amount of live sound I can confidently say that the way Tyrese is holding that microphone is a pain in the ****ing ass.

Also he's too good of a singer to be ****ing up the anthem with all this ornamentation and rubato.

you could be right, but still the corner should have let him try and finish.

like Loosekanen said - we could have seen 1 and maybe 2 judges having Vazquez way ahead (would have been wrong imo) on the scorecards.

I'm not a huge boxing fan but I enjoy watching big fights and saw Mosely get beat pretty easily by PBF. Any way to guage how pfb and pacman match up by watching fights between common opponents? In this case Mosely.

Just like marquez got dominated by Floyd, much because of floyds defense and perfect counterpunches.

I had a lot of money on Manny to stop Margarito which is obviously something I'll never bet Manny to do again. So maybe 75% it goes to decision? Manny wins 100% of them imo.

Watched Mosley on Shaq vs and really liked him as a man. Always enjoyed Pac Man as well. Hard for me to root for anybody here. I want whatever gets Pac and PBF in the same ring, whatever that may be.
