Any boxing fans out there?

I am forever watching ESPN's Friday Night Fights, but it turns out this week I could have been ringside!!

They were at the Pechanga Resort and Casino in beautiful Temecula California... about 3 friggin' miles from my house!

Had I known that I would have had my wife get some tickets for me. She could get them for nada. She's dropped so much dough there they shoulda named a wing of the damn hotel after her, but I digress...

I love Friday Night Fights as well, MACS.
My wife and I feel that it clears the air until Monday.

Seriously though, I really enjoy ESPN's FNF, Showtime's, and especially HBO's fights.

I hear that Riddick Bowe will be making a comeback now that Lenox Lewis is (temporarily?) out of the picture...

Riddick Bowe shouldn't be allowed to fight ever again. If you saw last weeks episode of FNF you saw a slow witted, punch drunk, former boxer.

He's going to get seriously hurt if he fights any of the heavyweight contenders.

Riddick missed his chance for greatness & $$$ when he passed up on "the fight" with Lennox.
He can thank his manager/activist Rock Neuman for that.
IMO, he can still rank in the top 10 if he loses 20 pounds & if they select the opponents carefully- guys who can't bang or cover up effectively. LOL!

Do you realize that every time a boxer gets hit hard (not necessarily knocked out), he suffers a concussion?

They did a posthumous study on British prize fighters and discovered that their brains actually shrunk within the cranial casing, due to the head blows.


At one time, I wanted to be a prize fighter but I got married instead. LOL

I never really thought about boxing until they started doing it on the ship. Then I wanted to try it.

Found out there was a REASON for that. LMAO!

Hey Mr. Huevos Rancheros, you're being modest.

I heard that you gave your opponent such an unmerciful pummelling that it took weeks for his knuckles to heal. LOL!

You've got heart, my brother.

Macs, next match we gotta go!

I'm tellin' ya Dan... if I find out in time, my wife can probably get us ringside for nothing.
