Did you see his comment that Floyd needed to fight Kovalev for reasons way beyond my comprehension.

by **superflyweight** Tue 05 May 2015, 9:19 am

D4 was being relatively magnanimous at the point at which I nipped over - although after 9 rounds he had scored it 5-4 in Floyd's favour.

Shocked

by **rIck_dAgless** Tue 05 May 2015, 9:20 am

Fight turned out exactly as predicted surely, whoever thought that it was going to be Gatti Ward was always on a loser...

As for Kovalev, does that mean if kovalev beats Mayweather then Sergei has to foght Wlad? Idito that lad I tell ya..

by Guest Tue 05 May 2015, 9:25 am

Morning meat...massively underwhelmed by the "Fight of the Century". Even entered a parallel universe where Mayweather had personally slaughtered my wife and kids in front of me and STILL couldn't see a way to give Manny more than four rounds. Thought Mayweather Snr had more chance of slapping Floyd around as he sat in the corner ignoring him...obnoxious little c*nt!! However, probably won't even rank as "Fight of the Month" once Amir Khan does the business on 29th May.

I didn't watch it, I was hurtling up the M6 to Stafford at 06:00 in the morning. Fight was probably still going at that point? I could have listened to the radio but I was inspired by Jeff and refuse to let someone else dictate what I have on in my car. I listened to a few CD's (not Keane/Coldplay or any other of the sh*t that you bastards claim I listen to).

My boys team lost in the rugger tournament semi-final to a last minute try. Heartbreak all round. Took him for a KFC on the way home at Corley services to make him feel better.

by Adam D Tue 05 May 2015, 9:30 am

It was my birthday on saturday. Someone drove in to my parked car.

But that wasnt the worst of it. Not one of you wished me happy birthday. I would expect this from Tino but I am seriously disappointed with Jules. I am definitely going to his party I am not invited to now.

by Guest Tue 05 May 2015, 9:33 am

Happy belated birthday Adam. I'm sorry for not saying anything earlier but I had a bit of "cleaning" to do and was unavailable yet also have a cast iron alibi just in case.

You did not miss much Tina, went pretty much as you'd expect. The most annoying thing was listening to idiots moaning about it being dull on the Facebook the day after. Have any of you ever seen Mayweather fight before. Whining about the lack of brawling or toe to toe slugging is like moving to Iceland and moaning it is a bit nippy.

by **seanmichaels** Tue 05 May 2015, 9:39 am

I listened to the last 4 rounds. Buncie and Mike Costello milking the 'he's broken his heart' line over an over again.

by **superflyweight** Tue 05 May 2015, 9:44 am

I went to bed at about 11 and got up at 4 to watch it only to find Manny still hadn't put his bastarding gloves on. Pr!ck cost me about 30 minutes extra in my bed and ensured that I had to listen to Carl Froch longer than was strictly necessary. I was Team Floyd all the way after that.

I see Pacquiao donated about $60 million of his purse to charity. This having given away his $26 million purse from Bradley I to typhoon whatsisname victims. No wonder he's finances look like they look

It's not starting today, but I will put out a thread looking for participants later.

Cynics might suggest he donated it out of a sense of shame at doing slightly less than f*ck all during the fight. I'd not be one of those cynics but if I overheard them say this I wouldn't be leaping to Manny's defence.

Still, all that aside, nice of him to do something good with his money instead of buying solid gold butt plugs for his army of fluffers or whatever it is Mayweather spends his ill*-gotten gains on.

*Watching the fight made me ill

You are given a subject (such as "songs featured in a Tarrantino film)). you then submit via PM your nomination. Its then put to a anonymous poll and points are awarded to top in the polls.

This is how it should run but annoyingly, people pick what they think will win and not what they actually like the best. Joy Division is usually a 10 pointer.

by Rowley Tue 05 May 2015, 10:53 am

I am going to pick completely obscure stuff, just to irritate Tina. I said I wouldn't but unfortunately I suspect I can't resist.

by **Union Cane** Tue 05 May 2015, 10:54 am

I always pick what I like the best, which is usually Force & Styles.

So is it like Pointless (least popular) or Family Fortunes (most popular) or are we just secretly telling Tina stuff we know/like?

All seems rather chaotic and badly organized. Nothing but trouble will come of this

Should have put it in capitals, but I was on my phone whilst I was on the loo, so could not quite be bothered.

I'm not sure I will participate. I'm still smarting from the utterly underwhelming response to my suggestion that Johannes Gensfleisch zur Laden zum Gutenberg had the greatest impact on culture.

I'm sure I lost based on that answer and I largely blame Tina because he was so enthusiastic about it over the PM.

Hey 'fly, you're great and that's a brilliant answer and everyone will vote for it. You're great.

You beat me to City of God on the best film over the last few years, I was gutted about that.

Although the PM is quite clearly a lie, I did actually vote for it in the actual round. Only interesting thing you've ever posted.

For the sake of f*ck, shall I just re-run the final round and see if the results change?
