Boxing / Re: Floyd Mayweather Jr vs Conor McGregor
« on: July 13, 2017, 12:08:07 am »
obviously I think Conor has a 0% chance and will get owned, but i don't care what happens in this fight. i just hope one of them gets ko'd within the first few rounds. If Floyd lost by KO, i'd be ecstatic - that's what you get for this circus & not fighting GGG. If Conor loses by KO, it'll be expected & i'll be happy.
a double knockout would be optimal.

« on: July 12, 2017, 11:37:29 pm »LOL WTF IS WRONG WITH ME LOL.
Regards to Mayweather vs mcgregor that fight is being hyped to its maxium by both sides, mayweather wants to go out with a bang. They predict it to be bigger than mayweather vs pacquiao. How is such a one sided fight between a pro fighter and a pro boxer getting this much attention. You have the irish fans, the mcgregor fans (which is in the millions), supporting their fighter, you got mayweather fans and then you have the little of the others who are interested.
I watched the conferences and it is bringing out the vintage mayweather and it is really big somehow. I just don't get it. You got trash talking from both sides, antics (almost spelt it antiques lol) and singers. 10000+ people attended the conference and majority were conor supporters. I think it may actually get close but will not be bigger than mayweather pacquiao cos they both brough their fans and the die hard boxing fans, the die hard fans know how one sided this is.
and again I can't believe I posted that tennis stuff in the boxing section lol.
lmao @ the tennis stuff.
it's easy to get when you watch mayweather WWE videos:
he's a huge WWE/WWF fan.
he figured out how to make MORE money by playing the villain.. he's a showman. he's just messing around, making more people hate him, who spend money to see him get wrecked & lose a fight, which never happens.
this stuff is garbage from every angle.
:/
Sr could probably beat Mcgregor in boxing :/

reading: walked + fast runs
felt pretty good.. feeling alot stronger lately. I think it's mostly due to the fact that i'm doing standing desk 100% & not eating too much.
feeling better physically + mentally.
sitting = the devil.
I gave in for too long and got lazy, sitting or lying down while coding & such. Getting back on my game, standing up + computing -> burn some calories, get the blood pumping more, strengthen up more, move around, and go nutz.
every time i train after having spent a lot of time sitting i end up injured, it's so predictable.
damn. ya man, just wrecks you.

do you have a specific standing desk or are you just improvising?
nah, always improvised. I need to actually do some better improvisation soon. I had the best setup at my previous job, had a box i'd carry around a plop onto people's desks/etc, and it was always the correct height.. some coffee machine box. Allowed me to have a super light weight portable standing desk :d

just paid off my student loans from 2006+
should have done this a long time ago.. but just let it sit there, paying itself off every month, allowing the interest to pile up.
feel great now. one less payment to worry about. going to suck seeing that money deduct from my bank account, but it's worth it. Every month the interest was enough for ~3-4 days of food.
GOOD RIDDANCE.
and Navient sucks. They purchased my loan provider, and switch over 6 months ago.. couldn't even restore the payment history (of the many years) in the UI. And they have been sued by the gov several times for screwing over students etc.
I am now officially debt-less.

probably saw it, but can't check. bbc blocking me.
also, you see this?<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IRs6mYeycII" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IRs6mYeycII</a>
lmao!
lol ye I saw that.
I searched on youtube for that best rally video but they are blocking my country but I downloaded it just to check and this video contains multiple good rallies, but the one I was referring to is the second rally in the video. Just awesome. Hopefully your country is not blocked from watching this.
Reminder: I am referring to the 2nd rally in this video.<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=raehejL4uAg" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=raehejL4uAg</a>

« on: July 11, 2017, 05:44:33 pm »Haha I just came to post that Horn got the WBO decision but I was beaten to it
It'll be interesting to see who he fights next. I mean obviously a rematch with Pacman is the honourable thing to do as it was Pacman that stepped up and gave him an opportunity. However, it's risky because if he loses than that takes some appeal off other boxers wanting to challenge him and get big fights.
i'd be curious to see if Pac pushes for a rematch though .. a rematch against a guy like that, late in his career, who head butts like crazy and is just a rough dirty fighter, doesn't sound like something he will want.. but with the independent review, he might "have to" before taking on another opponent. Might be the end for pac.. I'd like to see him try and avenge this loss, I think he would be able too. He'd fight smarter & not put so much faith into being able to KO Horn.
Bummer, would've been difficult to overturn the decision I'd imagine. Lesson I learned was how much the media you watch the fight (or any sport/ politics/ etc.) can affect your reality. I watched it on ESPN and was flipping shit like many Americans. Seifullaah73 watched it on a British network and clearly saw a Horn victory (closer to reality).
Yeah you have to be careful listening to announcers in fight sports, where anything but a finish (KO/TKO/KD) becomes subjective. These announcers are fans just like us, they love the sport.. so they have their favorites & can subconsciously spin it in their favor. They also judge differently, and they feed off each other. Bradley held his own versus those seasoned ESPN announcers. I'd expect the same thing from Malignaggi if he was there, or Roy Jones Jr if he was there. I think the key here, is that fighters themselves are harder to sway/push around. It's hard for them to just "give in" to the moment and go with the crowd, if it's not what they are feeling/experiencing. Roy Jones Jr for example, always shuts down Max Kellerman on HBO broadcasts. But even fighters become fans too, so leaving it up to the judges/subjective opinion always carries risk.
FWIW, I watched it on ESPN and still thought Horn won..

« on: July 11, 2017, 06:31:51 am »Mayweather vs mcgregor ppv cost same as the ppv cost for mayweather vs pacquiao like wtf. $100 to watch in HD. Desperate attempt at making the same money they made when may fought pac.
http://www.boxingscene.com/mayweather-mcgregor-ppv-cost-99-95-watch-hd--118367
Result of the wbo rescore of the match with 5 judges had it 7 rounds to 5 for horn.
http://www.boxingscene.com/pacquiao-horn-investigation-wbo-backs-scores-explains-why--118368QuoteUpon the analysis, the findings stated that Pacquiao won the 3rd, the 8th and 9th by 100%; the 5th round was won by 80%; and the 11th round by 60%. Horn won the 1st, 6th and 12th rounds by 100%; rounds 2nd, 4th, and 7th by 80%; and then, the 10th round by 60%.
From the results, it can be established that Pacquiao won 5 rounds while Horn won 7 rounds.
wow...
they need to do that more often for controversial decisions, I love how they did the percentages per round. that's impressive.
also, fwiw, I had it 7-5 HORN which could easily have been 6-6 or 7-5 PAC, that's just a close fight.. but had it 7-5 HORN..
Quote
McGregor has always been a trash talking type of player and always seems to back it up in the octagon and mayweather is the same in boxing so i think the tour may provide some sort of entertainment to hype up the event. who knows mcgregor may use some dirty tactics, which is required and pressure to beat mayweather. but I don't see that happening but conference should be entertaining.
bleh!! kinda hope mcgregor wins just because it's a stupid fight.. but also hope pbf KO's mcgregor into a different planet within a few rounds. either way, not that into it.. i'll enjoy watching the replay......... lmfao.
