Fight Night



Fight Night is a night I look forward too, I expect to see blood, sweat
and tears. This is a match of men trained to take a punch and deliver
blows. Egos are of the line and each man wants to come out of top. Its
not only a test of skills its a matter of pride. In what was supposed to
be a massacre last Saturday was more like dancing with the stars.

In one corner we've got Pretty boy Floyd in full Mexican colors, leather
robe and an iced out sombrero. Paying homage to his uncle or dissing his father?

In the opposite corner we have the Golden Boy Oscar De la Hoya. Cool,calm, collected.

Both are great fighters. Where was the massacre, The bloodshed, The upset?!?!!

De La Hoya lead the fight throwing lefts, jabs, body shots landing next
to nothing just exhausting himself. All the while Mayweather laughing
taking the hits and actually landing some blows.

They danced around the ring for 11 rounds then actually fought a little
in the last 12 seconds of the 12th round. If I wanted to watch dancing
with the stars I would put on abc. This was a $55 HBO PPV title fight, I
don't know what it was not what I signed up for.

All in all, yes, it was a decent fight went 12 rounds but in the end the pretty boys were still well, pretty.
