    If you're betting on it then you'd be pretty ****ed off if he's gona the matchday injured when declared himself fit. Obviously gambling is what it its name says and a gamble but you expect something like that to be mentioned befirehand

  2. Not really. We see it in football all the time where a player is "50:50" but in reality, the club already knows but want to keep an opponent guessing. Its only the same thing.

  4. No doubt you'd be cheesed off but tough ****, that's betting for you. I wouldn't expect someone to lessen their own chances of winning so that people can have a better chance of winning a bet <laugh>

    Interesting quote from the great man.

  7. I agree with what he is saying and it stands well right now but in ten, fifteen or twenty years time, only one of those two fighters will be remembered and it won't be the guy that's now got six losses to his name. I'd much rather watch Pacman than Flloyd though <ok>

    Disappointed with the lack of respect for Mayweather. There's boxing and there's fighting, and the two don't always co-exist. I'll not be in a rush to watch another Mayweather fight, but the lack of recognition for his boxing skills is dreadful. Maybe he should wear spangled shorts and tassles on his boots.

    Well said.

    Pacman is certainly more exciting to watch, but boxing isn;t just about throwing punches. It's also about not getting hit. Mayweather's defence is the arguably the best in the history of the sport.

    I suppose the same applies to football in that fans appreciate goals/attacks more than defence.
