Holyfield did not get that decision it was a scored a draw

I had Lewis that night I was so fucking angry it was ridiculous

Of course he would.. MILLIONS of reasons why :-)

Like I said he came for the paycheck.

He had nothing to lose because he was really just a throw in name guess who collects big $$$?? Bob Arum.. He promotes BOTH.

I still think Arum should be arrested for putting a card like this on!

That was back in the day when I used to bet with sportsinteraction.. they said I LOST because it was a draw BUT a draw wasn't an option only way a draw is a LOSS is if there is 3 selections... (draw) has to be in that selection.

After that fight I canceled my account and found the greek!

Sportsinteraction.com didn't have a selection for draw as a pick so I was supposed to be refunded.

At least I got rid of a garbage betting place!

The announcers were talking like Pacman was destroying the guy as the fight went on but I saw the same thing in the 1st round that I saw in the 12th. Clottey blocking damn near every punch pacman throws (which was almost 100 every round) while only throwing about 20 and landing 10 of them cleanly. I mean this fight could have gone another 20 rounds (pacman would still win 20 rounds to 0) and nothing would have changed. The announcers were just pissing me off with all that pacman is so great crap if our so great break his defense down and knock him out. Clottey is sitting back waiting for an opening that will never come because pacman knows he's waiting for it so never gives it to him Horrible fight. Idiots saying this might be pacmans best performance thats why I hate announcers. He got hit more cleanly this match than in others horrible fight

The music in between rounds was annoying as fuck. Guess what, this ain't football Jerry. I got a feeling the Mayweather.Mosley card will do better. At least we'll see a competitive non-landslide affair.

I was just looking at Clottey during the rounds and he clearly didn't listen to his trainer even if it's not his full time trainer.

He gave him the right advice, maybe the trainer wasn't informed why Clottey was brought in.

Let's hope we get a good under card in May, we have a lot of good fights coming up week after week!

you are exactly right. I forgot. I just remembered getting money back and shouldn't have. You can see how well I remember boxing. I bet on it very rarely. I got lucky tonight with the over and Pacq by decision. It will prolly be another 5 or 6 months before I bet on it again. Thanks for correcting me  I am starting to see I am getting old. lol

Clottey gave him a better fight than Cotto, De La Hoya, and Hatton for sure (Hatton fight was an absolute joke)...

did anyone feel like that wasn't the same Manny we just saw 5 months ago against Cotto?

He was giving the right advice, but 1x. You gotta keep repeating it, not just say it once and be done with it. Jmo

I liked the music between the fights. Also, I was at the fight and there werent many empty seats at all, some next to me but the upper deck was full because those were the  cheapest tickets.

 I wrote Jerry Jones and asked him to offer ear pieces for us to hear the HBO Pay per view coverage like they do at Figure Skating and at Nascar. I figure at $20 a pop it would be worth it to make the undercards a bit more interesting.  What do you think
