Hey, is anyone interested in tonight's bout between Lucian Bute and Librado Andrade? Gopal and I are planning to meet at the Abbey to watch. I've never seen...
It will be a classic matchup between a great "Mexican" Brawler vs a quicker craftier boxer; style wise that is. Memories of Chavez-Whitaker except IMO,...
In watching the fight preview show on RingTV.com, Doug Fischer made the comment that Pacquiao's style was "all wrong" for Cotto, and that's why Pac would win....
I've always been of the mind that Mayweather would find a way to make Pacquiao seem one-dimensional. I'm having second thoughts about that now though. ...
Some thoughts from the prodigal member. Apologies to anyone I encouraged to bet on Cotto. I myself didn’t place any money on him though I was considering a...
OK, the plan is official, we're going to Mike's house. So as not to post his address all over the internet, I'll email everyone off-list that I know is...
I will be there after the Cal game. To: bayareaboxing@yahoogroups.com From: dmarlay@... Date: Fri, 13 Nov 2009 08:56:48 -0800 Subject: [bayareaboxing]...
Hey guys, so who put money on who so far? Both Mae and I will be in Oakland celebrating her birthday tomorrow so I can easily end up at any East Bay location...
Mike's place sounds good. 480i broadcasts on 1080p screens sometimes look like shit though. gopal rao To: bayareaboxing@yahoogroups.com From: dmarlay@......
OK, folks. The viewing plan is still tentative, but either way, it's going to be in the East Bay. Plan A: Will Nee's house in Oakland. Will is currently...
i'm not too concerned by cotto being hurt by corley or torres. those fights were at 140, and it was well chronicled how weakened cotto's state was from making...
I don't know, Margarito still could have stopped Cotto without plaster, and for all we know he did anyway. OK, Margarito had probably been loading his gloves...
+210 for cotto on bodog for the win. that's a very good payout. we've only really seen cotto once since margarito. granted, he didn't look great, but it's...
If there is any more assurance on why Pacman will win, see Dan Rafael` prediction on espn. When it comes to close fights, he is usually wrong.
-----Original...
Cotto's win over Mosley is definitely his most impressive win. I have been re-watching Cotto's fights, and I keep forgetting how good his fights are to watch....
nice odds and tempting as hell. and you bring up a good point regarding mosley, but can't forget that was a younger, pre-margarito cotto; he's lost half a step...
Just watched 1st round of Oscar's swan song. He looked slower than molasses running uphill in January. Hands like turtles, feet like lead. Cotto's handspeed...
Pacquiao is going down ... Cottos been training harder than ever . Beware of the Puertorrican Thunder ... ... From: ~ elle d'orado ~ <ellester@...> ...
I'll make the trip across the Bay for this one, no prob. BOX! e||e To: bayareaboxing@yahoogroups.com From: hhboy77@... Date: Tue, 10 Nov 2009 09:14:55...
my vote would be for will's (if someone can hold his hand thru the cable setup process). since the cal game is at 4 and will lives in oakland, that would...
Yeah, Todd and I were talking to the bartender the other night. He was saying that if there's a group of us, he can't really compete with that. I think they...
Dan, You said you could get us a group rate at the Abbey? gopal rao To: bayareaboxing@yahoogroups.com From: toddkress@... Date: Tue, 10 Nov 2009 08:42:31...
wow, an embarrassment of riches we've got going on with all the host options. my vote is we go for broke and join the mayhem at the abbey. should be a ...
Henry and Corina have volunteered to host as well. gopal rao To: bayareaboxing@yahoogroups.com From: dmarlay@... Date: Mon, 9 Nov 2009 21:34:13 -0800 ...
Another possibility, I talked to the bartender at the Abbey, and he said he could give us a group discount, and charge just $10/head. Otherwise, Gopal's house...
Yeah! Both Mae Schultz and myself are in for Pacquiao fight, we were just talking about it tonight. Your place sounds cool for me, neighbor ;) BOX!! e||e To:...
I'll probably join you at the Abbey. I'm somewhat intrigued by the Valuev fight. I'll actually pick Valuev over Haye. I think people are getting caught up in...
