That about wraps things up here.

 

[oldmario]

i wonder how inky, blinky, pinky, and clyde feel that pacman isn't fighting with them anymore

 

[smurfx]

damn i didn't even paquiao was even fighting still.

 

[Syriel]

Pac-Man fights are the best!

 

[Lulubop]

He's pretty hype in Smash, yea.

Oh, what's this thread about?

lol

Me either. Seems there's no hype for this.

Jeff horn has never lost, pacman trying to make a come back?

Okay, I guess the hype died since the mayweather fight.

 

[polyh3dron]

I just realized this fight was happening like a couple days ago. Yeah this one is flying under the radar. But Horn is actually Manny's mandatory WBO welterweight title challenger.

Teddy Atlas and Tim Bradley are two of the commentators, it should be entertaining just based on that.

 

[lightskintwin]

Watching Mosley Jr. get outboxed by Toussaint right now.

 

[illmatic22]

Pac's competition has been disappointing as of late. Can't get excited for a mismatch.

 

[smurfx]

OP you should ask a mod to put in the title that the fight is free on espn.

 

[Syphon Filter]

its lame, why would there be hype? lol

Same... (watch Manny get stopped).

 

[PR_rambo]

Yeah Manny is kidding himself, thinking fights like these will set up a rematch with Floyd. Wish he'd fight Crawford.

khan vs manny was going to happen, I was hyped for that.

 

[norm9]

Lol.

My hype is saved for Triple G v Canelo and Money v McGregor. Every other fight gets a background watch but no in depth analysis article reading or 24/7 video packages.

I doubt he thinks that lol, he would have been fighting top guys if he wanted that rematch.

lol at getting hyped for may vs conor when that is even lamer.

 

[jchap]

Like Berto

 

[smurfx]

I doubt he thinks that lol, he would have been fighting top guys if he wanted that rematch.

he's going to ride it out and get as many paychecks as he can before getting knocked out or beaten badly. rarely do boxers retire on top.

 

[Rizific]

Why is this not a ppv fight? Not that I want to pay to watch it, but have been genuinely wondering why this is on ESPN.

Carnies gonna carnie. Im more than happy to pay to see what's behind the curtain.

You answered your own question.

 

[smurfx]

because espn is likely paying more money for it than it would have gotten through ppv. neither showtime or hbo wanted this fight either so they had to settle for espn.

On a side note boxing OT is here http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=154705&page=313

Not true, HBO was willing to pony up some case to air this Pacquiao fight on their network.

I mean it's been reported that Pacquiao is still getting a guaranteed purse of 10 million dollars.

ESPN and Top Rank have reached a deal for this fight and future fights. We're more than likely going to see Lomachenko's next fight which will probably be a rematch against Salido and Crawford's next fight which will probably be Indongo on ESPN.

The more people that can watch these fights the better.

I ain't complaining.

Dawwww... kind of adorable lol, the OT is old as dirt and we barely get visitors... notice us GAF!!!

 

[Grug]

I'm a Brisbane boy through and through but Horn is gonna get slapped.

 

[Darkman M]

Damn....

 

[Ether_Snake]

So why is this fight happening to begin with? ESPN's commentator is outright making fun of this fight. "We don't know who this guy is, he's a no name! And he only fought no names! Look at this! Mufizal Mustaphar? Boli Brono? Bertubi Lolombo?!"

Because fighters fight in order to get paid and remain active.

Yeah but isn' tthere anyone else for Pac to fight?

Top Rank seems to be doing their own thing. As long as we get Pacman vs Crawford after this, then this fight will have been worth it.

 

[studyguy]

Is Kellerman even allowed to comment on ESPN for live boxing matches?

It's like either PPV production or garbo ESPN production

 

[lightskintwin]

On his show First Take, but probably not within a Boxing program outside of HBO's.

Lol I'm currently vacationing in Mexico, Azteca 7 channel has it free.

Oh well, peeps are somewhat hyped down here

 

[Syphon Filter]

nah he changed his mind fast.

 

[HStallion]

This is on ESPN? Huh alright I guess I'll check it out but Manny hasn't excited me in a while and that's not even getting into his politics.

 

[smurfx]

this next fight could be exciting.

Yeah GAF has shitlisted other celebrities for less.

Pacman is a bigot.

 

[Chuck Norris]

It's the most hyped fight of the year bar none.

 

[TraBuch]

It's pretty crazy to think I'm bigger than both these guys combined and either one could knock me out in a second.

 

[Syphon Filter]

It's the most hyped fight of the year bar none.

I know but you know why.

 

[dragonzdogma]

Japanese dude hits hard.

canelo vs GGG is way more hype.

 

[dragonzdogma]

Wow, jeez man, Japanese guy had heart tho. But man, pac2.0 came through.

 

[HStallion]

canelo vs GGG is way more hype.

Batman versus Superman is more hype

 

[King Kovu]

Nice body shot by Pac 2.0

 

[Syphon Filter]

manny was scared of the koala lol.
