Why is Heresy not posting. Oh I forgot Manny's not fighting so he's not watching boxing. But yet I'm the called the fanboy. It's funny how a lot of posters disappear when Manny or Mayweather is not fighting. Last night was a great boxing card on Showtime. Thanks to the real boxing fans that post and keep the thread lit..

golden boy just doesn't want to give up sept 15th it seems. Now their talking about either fighting Austin Trout or Quintana (according to dan rafael espn).

Trout is pretty good and all, but damn he can be boring. Quintana is alright, but neither of these guys should headline a big fight especially if it's on PPV.

Funny how Lara isn't mentioned as a possible opponent (and he's promoted by Golden Boy!).

The reason I'm not posting is because I'm living out of a hotel until the water damage in my home is fixed. The entire first floor has to be remodeled. Come monday I won't be allowed back in for three weeks (thought it was two until I double checked) because thats how long it is gonna take to fix the problem (floors tested positive for asbestos.) Don't believe me, I can link you to another site where I talked about the flooding like 5 days ago or how about I post what I posted yesterday morning on this site?

Technically it's a new ending. The "clarity" changes depending on what you did in the game so save file 1 may be totally different from save file 2 (depending on what choices.) I won't be able to snag it anyway cause I won't have access for two weeks cause of the water damage to the crib.
In that post I'm talking about how I won't be able to download the Mass Effect 3 ending due to not having access to the internet because I won't be staying at the home due to water damage. Anything else you need to say?

And you're just mad because you've been exposed, bigclit.

And I don't just watch Floyd and Manny fights what are you an idiot? Shit, I should not have asked that because you are. If I only watched their fights why would I even mention Mikael Zewski? You're the only person foolish enough to even label me a "casual" boxing fan, lol.

Yes if its any of those names then it wont be on PPV because no one will order that crap! Guess I am just looking forward to Chavez/Martinez on Sep. 15th. Who is more popular among mexicans, Canelo or Chavez Jr.? Like who is the bigger draw? Got Em!!

richard schaefer says there are thinking three names, if the opponent ends up not being "PPV worthy" they'll have the fight on Showtime or CBS.

I don't believe the CBS statement for a second though, I don't think they've had a fight since the 90's.

but that would be a major move for boxing to have that fight on cbs after all the bs that the sport went thur these last couple of weeks and by the way gus johnson was money calling the fight last night especially after ortiz quit

I think richard is talking out of his ass.

But if they did get a deal with CBS, I wouldn't want Canelo fighting some scrub or weak opponent, and that's the thing, they'll only have the Canelo fight on Showtime/CBS if it's a lesser opponent. If it's someone like Cotto or James Kirkland it will be on PPV.

So I'd rather not have it on CBS if it's against say, Quintana or someone like that. Probably hurt the sport more if it's a weak ass fight.
