I am surprised that no one has started this thread yet.

I know this is an MMA website but I bet that there are some Boxing Fans out there.

I just love the sport of fighting in general and I have been raised by boxing.

So in this Thread we can discuss the "Sweet Science"

such as
Past Fights
Upcoming Events
Favorite Fighters
and Historical Figures in the Sport


Because like MMA in the US, Boxing started out illegal. But where it took MMA less than 25 years to gain the General populations approval, It took boxing over 100 years.

Discuss and have fun.

Good fight.

6-2 Pacman

Could call round 8 even, but I'll give the slight edge to Thurman.

6-3 Pac

Pacquiao slowed way down this round. Thurman finding something, but might be too little too late.

77-74

Good end note for Pacquiao 

8-4

116-112

For Pacman.

But knowing Vegas, won't be surprised if they rule it a Draw because money talks. That would be a *****.

If Pacquiao wins.

His legacy as an All Time Great goes even higher than it is.

I can see that the score cards are gonna vary a lot. I have it 115-112 Pacman, but there were several rounds that I think depending on the angle you were watching, they will be scored very differently. The kindest reading for Pacquiao would be 118-109. Kindest reading for Thurman would 114-113 with Thurman winning.

A Split? 

Something smells fishy in Vegas

But the right man got the decision.

114-113 Thurman, 115-112 Pacman, 115-112 Pacman. Two judges came to same score as me and one went with the most favorable possible scorecard for Thurman. I feel like I called this in my post above.

I'm calling it now.

Now that Pacquiao has the spotlight on him now, stay tuned within a month for Floyd to do something so he can get his name out there again.
