Thanks! |

| Sam Ryan's may have it, problem is with the Rugby World Cup and a huge college football game on Sun AM (OU vs Fla St) there may not be enough tvs to accommodate the demand, they may be put it on later in the day |

Oh, yeah... Didn't think about that.
Thanks a lot, though! |

| KBS sports usually shows the Mayweather fights. If you ask nicely, I imagine most bars will put it on for you. The only problem might be opening times as the fight will probably be around 11a.m. Korean time. |

Yeah, Mayweather definitely ain't going down as one of the better champs in history. Showed his true colors, if ya ask me. |

| What a shame, one of the best boxers in history doing it like that, no class. To top it off he mouths off to Larry Merchant who has been in the business forever. If Mayweather has any balls he will fight Pacman and give the world the fight they want to see. |

He did the same thing to Gatti (RIP) back in 2005. |

I didn't see the fight, but well, after reading what most boxing analysts wrote, Ortiz has himself to blame. He was clearly losing the fight despite showing signs of life in the fourth round, and a basic rule in boxing is "protect yourself at all times." Referee Joe Cortez had told the timekeeper "Time in" after which Mayweather punched Ortiz, who tried four times in the fight to hug Mayweather.
I think a true sportsman wouldn't have punched Ortiz like Mayweather did but it seems the fourth-round KO simply hastened the inevitable and despite what you think of him, Mayweather is simply spectacular as a boxer. |

A lot can happen in a fight. If Mayweather felt in control and spectacular, he wouldn't have resorted to his desperate tactics.
If you watch the HBO special 24/7 on Mayweather/Ortiz, you get a better feeling for what type of fighter and person Mayweather is.
To cap that, as mentioned above Mayweather disgraced himself further by hurling expletives at an 80 year old announcer who was simply doing his job.
Again, if Mayweather is that spectacular, its odd that he obviously doesn't feel very secure about it himself. Sorry, not the stuff of champions, and shouldn't have people singing his praises ('tho I suppose they're free to if they're of the same ilk). |

Like I said, Fairweather Fighter isn't a class act, the punch was cheap, and his exchange with Larry Merchant was horrendous. I'm not excusing Mayweather's actions at all and I'd wish he'd just shut up and fight Pac-man if he thinks he's all that. Yet many boxing analysts say Ortiz was naive and inexperienced in trying to apologize and hug his opponent like that.
At least a rematch is forthcoming. |
