    I'm not a huge boxing fan, but during my early years in vegas I used to go to some pretty big (tho not heavyweight) fights at caesars palace. back then, I think I may have paid $25-50 for a ticket. I remember seeing camacho, bobby chacon, danny lopez, greg haugen, leon spinks, ray mancini and guys like that. I'll bet most of them are pretty messed up these days :oops:

    Sad sad story. He did put himself into the position but it's still saddening.

    Barry Bonds...er I mean Marquez knocked Manny out cold in what was probably the best fight of the last 3 years.
    It was a war

    I did not expect to see Manny laying on his face, i fully expected another 12 rounds and the judges to screw it up again. hmmmmm loaded handwraps and P.E.D's?

    Pacquiao leaned into Marquez and he caught him flush with his right hand. Went down like a bag of potatoes.

    And so you see, I have come to doubt
    All that I once held as true
    I stand alone without beliefs
    The only truth I know is you.

    What an incredible fight. Did that knock out remind anyone else of what Pacquiao did to Hatton? What a punch. That was a lot of fun.

    Gotta wonder where Manny goes from here.

    Yeah, Arum is already talking about a 5. Tough to recover from a hit like that though.

    I can' t imagine they would put Manny in the ring with Rios after that. 5 seems like the most logial fight.

    Maybe Floyd will actually fight him now that he has lost a couple..... :lol::lol::lol: Yeah, right.

    Someone should let Manny know that the planking fad phased out about a year ago.

    Yeah, he did. He was good for the sport and I don't know exactly what this was about, probably when he was trying to force Floyd to apologize to him on TV rather than talking about the fight he just finished.
