    Gracias senor. Closer then I thought it would be, but then I haven't paid attention to boxing in years.

    Any guess on when the main card is expected to start?

    No matter who Floyd fights from here on out, if he runs around, he will win. He could fight a Mike Tyson in his prime who is 10x faster, and Floyd will still win as long as he runs. That boy is in the wrong sport right now, he should run track and field in the Olympics.

    I agree that Hatton has no chance in this fight.

    Not on the Northside I don't. See my previous post.

    I did find another place that will be showing it.

    Coaches Pub. 2204 Louisiana (Midtown). $5 cover.

    Even the weigh in had some tip offs as far as I'm concerned.

    Hatton will come forward pressing the issue,but Floyd will outbox him.

    Mayweather has the speed and perhaps even the stronger punch at this weight.

    I did at one time think that this fight had a good chance of going the distance....not anymore.


    I like Mayweather outclassing/right weight class at -200 a lot....plus with the heavy action overseas there is an overlay here.

    Until the weigh in, I had no idea that Mayweather was taller than Hatton and also outweighs him by two pounds. Hatton is a true Junior Welterweight.

    I got paroled by my girlfriend for the fight, although I've been ordered to report to my parole officer after the fight is over. ;) So...I think I might wind up at Coaches Pub in Midtown around 7PM. :cool:

    Most strip joints have the fight and cover is like 5 bucks.
    Except your G.F/ S.O/ parole officer won't let you watch it at a gentlemens establishment, i would think that would be the cheapest option.

    That's where I'll be watching the fight. Just got off the phone with my parole officer. Meeting a "fellow parolee" there. I'll be there by 7PM so I can wolf down some wings. :D

    Sounds good. Not sure what time I'll make it up there, I'm guessing around 8. I'll be the tall white guy with the tall blonde chick. I'll just just stand on a table and yell CLUTCHFANS until I found ya. ;)

    I'm going to get there by 7 to get a good seat and maybe try to get a table. I'll be wearing jeans, a white short sleeved shirt & my John Lennon glasses. I'm the guitar player in these pics.

    Also just discovered the Mezzanine Lounge has the fight. $15 cover to get in. I'm still gonna try to hit up Coach's, hopefully its not too crowded. That place is tiny.

    Turns out I won't be going to Coaches after all. A buddy of mine called to say he bought the fight at his house. He lives 5 blocks from here. Short drunk drive home. :eek: But then a long drunk drive to my probation officer's house! :eek: ;)
