How sad.....

Dude, Rabbit Ears are history. Analog TV is gone, never to return. Digital TV requires a real antenna.

Antenna TV is the only uncompressed signal, the best picture, the best sound.

silly fool, analog is compressed to fit over the airwaves, non compressed is seeing it live.
Sounds like a non fight to me.

From fights to wabbit ears......LOL
I switched to watching Cage fights several years ago.
Those guys and gals make boxing look like a Alter Boy argument.
Throw a boxer in the Cage he would not last one round.
It is a dead sport, just some do not know it yet.

+1 the sport of boxing has been hijacked by greed.

MMA - Jose Aldo vs Mc Gregor UFC 189

[Mr.C]

Fight sucked, but hey coming from a family of Flips you can guess who we wanted.. chicken adobe, karaoke...good times.

Have they already fought or is that upcoming?

Heard a blip on the radio the other day.
Not sure if correct but they were saying $60 of each $100 PPV "virtual ticket"(i.e. expensive movie) went to Mayweather.
He would get $100M + for just entering the ring and laying down for a quick nap...

The piece also said Mayweather had 7 assault charges against him.
By 5 different women.
WTF?
Why would any moral man (or the legal system for that matter) support such an actor?

[Don Ro]

He's not well-liked/respected as a person.
Most wanted to see his sorry ass whooped.
.
At post fight interview he was asked what's most important to him in life...his second answer was 'money'.
Oh, and his first answer was 'me'.

[regency]

So glad I ignored it............could give 2 chits.

I think we should forget him as soon a possible.

[chocolatelab]

Boxing would be much improved if the purse was split by results. Example winner gets 70 percent.

Those 2 clowns would have been getting after it for sure.

A better reference(with Kerry King thrashing riffs):
She watch Channel Zero http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eHClbKRNs4A

Someone should tell Mayweather you're supposed to hug your wife and punch Pacquiao, not the other way around.

Until boxing penalizes tying up your opponent boring fights wiill persist and boring fighters will have success

[Geronimo '74]

Is there going to be a rematch?
Why anyone would set up such an event without a rematch, I do not understand.
Seems only fair Manny gets another chance.

I did like to see Maywaether eat some humble pie too.
The boasting got boring a long time ago.
Now that I found out he uses women as a punchbag, he deserves a piece of shame pie to last him a life time.

[Joe Bob]

My brother bought the fight, free invite....told him I had to go shoe shopping....didn't miss a thing.

Antenna TV is digital in this country (USA) and I think Canada too.

Where are you from?

Like I said, stuff coming over the airwaves is the highest quality available.

The more I hear about him, the less I respect him.

No wonder the crowd hated him.

[ckelly78z]

I heard that just in prize money, Mayweather was garaunteed $150M and Pacman was to get $100M, this didn't include any endorsements or par-per-view monies. Foolish pride and greed are the only things keeping these aging fighters in the ring.
