De La Hoya vs. Mayweather

[Kire]

Legend vs. "pound for pound" best fighter...I'm probably not going to be able to see it, but it's probably the last fight in a while that anyone will care about. I've always liked watching Oscar, and he's the 3 to 1 underdog in this fight. Most say he doesn't have a prayer against Mayweather.

I'm going for De La Hoya.

Yawn.

Only boxer I like is Winky Wright. I saw one of his fights where he started talking to the announcers in the middle of whoping some guy. I don't care who you are that's pretty cool.

Re: De La Hoya vs. Mayweather

I know some people love boxing... I know some people find a lot of class or nostalgia or beauty in it.

I don't. I really don't see what the point is in having a sport where the goal is to damage someone else's body so badly that it can't support anything beyond its vital functions. I think it's barbaric.

On "Pardon the Interruption" yesterday, Tony lamented that "boxing is dead": that while this will certainly garner some interest in THIS FIGHT, and maybe a rematch, but it will not revive the sport, and nothing can really be done to revive the sport.

I was a little surprised by how sad it made him to say that, because when I heard it my heart fluttered with joy.

I prefer watching hobos fight for scraps of chicken skin. They want it more.

I think it's barbaric.

What's wrong with that?


And I prefer UFC, but boxing is okay too I guess.
