I missed the fight lol. Forgot actually. Bitchko won??

Yeah, by a clear points decision (117-109, 118-108, 116-110).

It was a typical Klitschko fight and boring as shit. Haye was just simply pathetic, shooting for "takedowns" (in a boxing match, yes) flopping on his knees while hoping for one big punch to land.

A punch he wasn't really even trying to land very often, I might add.

THIS. The man can fight but his matches sure are boring to watch.

Haye's style is always to go on the counter attack but Klitschko was giving him none of it. So Haye tried to go on the offensive but he can't keep it up. Typical British media trying to cover for him too. 'Oh he wasn't allowed some pain relief before the fight' 'TV crews were blocking the view of Haye's corner' 'Haye had a broken toe'. Fuck off with that. Funny for a toe that's been broken for 3 weeks, how it had never been mentioned until he lost. Boxers have sustained worse injuries during fights and kept on going. No good excuse for me.

^Oh man, that vid was fuckin' HILARIOUS!

You still gotta hand it to the Klitschkos, they really are the best at what they do. Maybe it's not the most crowd-pleasing style of fighting but so what. A sport's a sport and the purpose is to win the fights.

It's not their fault everyone else in the heavyweight division sucks monkey balls.

Ricky Hatton has announced his retirement from the sport. Which is weird considering I thought he retired a while back ago. I've never seen such a sporting comedown in my life. King of the world one minute, then after one fight his career and lifestyle had gown downhill big time.

HOLY SHIT. if u haven't watched it by now. Man. Boxing

The FUCK Victor. launching himself, he was actually having Mayweather on the ropes.

Listening to takes all week. I Rofl'd when Bernard Hopkins was like "you can't be all kissing" and Dana White laid it on the ref, but he said to knock it off so fuck. Money do what Money had to do. Ain't no cheap shot.

Just a hilarious way to end it.

thatonezombie · « **Reply #190 on:** September 28, 2011, 01:02:17 AM »

It's everyone's fault in that case. Floyd shouldn't have thrown, Victor should have been protecting himself and the ref should have separated them to their corners.

one of the classic boxers that brought the sport to light before MMA. R.I.P. Smokin' Joe

RIP Legendary Joe Frazier. :/

shit. Cancer is a bitch. Him and Ali had the best fights ever. And I was hearing stories about him and Ali, that there was some things that Ali went overboard in his swagga comments that he's regrets.

daigong · « **Reply #196 on:** November 12, 2011, 12:13:38 AM »

Damn. Listening to what Frazier tributes with Freddie Roach and such, it's true. WAHT FIGHTERS be ducking. These guys Frazier, Foreman, Ali just picked themselves up and fought again and again. None of this "involves the little guy" subtle silent shit. BE A MAN. TELL IT TO YO FACE!

still. if u watched some Alfredo Angulo vs. James Kirkland! WHATTA KO!

Great matches still. Manny and Marquez years removed, who knows?! Gonna be a classic, I'll be tuned in with UFC and Hockey all weekend long.

OH MANNNY!!!! fucking hahaha Bitter Much EPIC. Marquez came out and delivered.

storyboard · « **Reply #198 on:** November 13, 2011, 10:05:00 AM »

Re-watched the fight...very close fight IMO. The fight could have gone either way, but I had Pacman winning 115-113, while being as unbiased as possible.

daigong · « **Reply #199 on:** November 13, 2011, 10:50:25 AM »

I KNOW....I gotta watch it again. saw it on a wack stream and it was Spanish commentators so kept on seeing Marquez lay the blows

DAMN this another controversial ending no matter how you slice it.

Mayweather gonna be talking shit that's fo sho
