Fights at the Cowboy Stadium: I couldn’t care less about them
jbManny should only fight in stadiums from now on. Obviously he can sell the tickets even when fighting someone not well known to the general public. Would be nice to see more stadium fights in our time. Posted March 17, 2010toxic@jaybles ok let’s have some boxing logic for a change actually there are a lot of boxing fans here with a ton of boxing logic but seems to get overwhelmed ( myself included) with the bias and stupidity of some of the posters here, now according to jaybles paq would lose to mosley…. how?? toxic@ Chris Williams your another hypocrite u just stated that u could’t care less about paqiuao but it seems that u can’t stop writing about him amazing, stop this articles then if u don’t care but why is that u wrote 4 articles on the 15th lol and one today about manny’s bout?? seems to me you secretly love manny paquiao come on dont be shy go ahed and admit it. Posted March 17, 2010RJVif you were a real boxing writer you would have been ringside not watching on a tv Posted March 16, 2010ashishwarrioroli you talk sense you in north west? Posted March 16, 2010ashishwarriorthe venue was bang on every one i have spoke to was more impressed with the venue than the undercard for sure Posted March 16, 2010count-dthis is all arum’s fault honestly Posted March 16, 2010Adam churmsChris williams you are a complete numpty idiot fool stupid retarded moron not to mention blind as a bat wen has 51000 ppl and the biggest boxin crowd ever in usa been an empty stadium even in the uk were i am it was awesome and we appriciate gud stadiums over here u shud too great stadium uve got over there 1 idiot on this website Posted March 16, 201015 RoundsI was at the event and if i had to rate it—-> POOR! Im sorry i dont like to talk negative but it was very poor. Ive been in several boxing events (in & outside arenas) boxing in a stadium should never take place the atmosphere is joke. The undercard c’mon its in a stadium “THE COWBOY STADIUM” The alcoholics that drink beer that the only choice was MILLER LITE that was mest up lol U shouldve seen their faces i i was laughin but hey i heard their was some dosxx. I also feel bad for the nfl fans going to the Superbowl next year dont take my word for it ask the nba fans too how they like their all-star experience eventhough it was on Dallas and the Cowboy stadium is at Arlington but is the same been their 3x even the night life is POOR and im not a party pooper. Oooo and the taxi’s forget it not organize im sure theirs lotz of complaints lets just say i will never go to Dallas/Arlington Texas again. Posted March 15, 2010zno i wasnt there but the excitement level from the stadium usually can be felt on tv. when the atmosphere is electric it adds to the tv experience, and this was not the loud electric crowd i expected, or it at least didnt project that way. Posted March 15, 2010Panyarachunyeah! yeah! they were cherry picked for Pacquiao. all excuses. in retrospect. Pacquiao fought all the best in the divisions he fought on. some of you guys on this blog obviously don’t give a it about rankings in the lower weight classes or if it not some American that’s fighting. One champion after another fell in his wake. 4 future hall of famers. a tough Brit, a proud Puerto Rican, a brutal Ghanian. Posted March 15, 2010OliYou americans make ppl sick with your constant moaning. I watched the fight and i enjoyed it, even tho my fighter Clottey lost. I still enjoyed it. And from what i saw on TV the stadium looked great, the British commentators said they had yet to see a more impressive stadium. It looked good on TV, it sounded good on Tv also. So i hope that Dallas becomes a regular venue for big time world title fights in the future, the next MGM grand. Because think about it, Vegas venues seat about 16,000, and for good seats im sure you will need to pay about 700. Its stupid when you can have 40 or 50,000 fans instead. Cowboys Stadium= Great venue for boxing, hope it continues Posted March 15, 2010rat-a-toothe fight was a success,her they will do it again.did you hear the cheering and chanting of manny name?heard manny made 14 millions and cottey made 3 millions+. t3xA$ M@D3HOW MANY PEOPLE YOU THINK MAYWEATHER vs mosely WOULD BRING TO DALLAS,more then pacquiao would.I SAW NOTHIN BUT cowboys players and coaches not much of other stars. Posted March 15, 2010Punch drunk@Texasbox zi dont know if it was bc of the incredibly unexciting fight but i didnt see anything special about cowboys stadium. looked like any other fight to me the atmosphere was by no means electric. Posted March 15, 2010TexasboxMore people can see the fight because they don’t have to pay $500 for the nosebleed section in Vegas. The working man deserves the right to attend top level fights as well Posted March 15, 2010DeletedCommentsHaven’t you heard what the commentators are saying? Pacman is to Lebron James of basketball. He brought 51,000 fans in a stadium! Fans who’ll watch in awe even if Pacquiao just shadowboxed in the middle of that ring. The other one, can’t even fill the MGM grand and had to fake a rib injury to have longer time selling tickets. Posted March 15, 2010davelahrisbrilliantwow… the level of intelligence of the writers on this site is amazing. Posted March 15, 2010RyuI don’t think May 1st will be boring. Posted March 15, 2010BobEvery Mayweather fight is boring he’s better than Ambien in putting a viewer to sleep Posted March 15, 2010Anonymous@ anonymous I agree, it’s skeptical. But if it is HGH that we are concerned about, just know that all humans carry a form of HGH that helps us grow,and if we have an excess of HGH in the blood stream, we develop typically symptoms of its use (example, greasy “zits”, bone overgrowth, more hardened masculine features, muscle growth.) It also takes more that 24 days to be of some benefit to the user, if we’re speaking of muscle and bone growth. You can say what you want. That’s what this site is for. Sure, say that I’m living my dreams through Pacman, but not from the Philippines so I can’t relate to the hardship that those people and my family go through, because I was born here. But knowing how they struggle and seeing someone like Pacquiao make it from lifting bags of rice to boning Filipino models does bring a smile to my face. He’s not the greatest or most moral person in the world, but neither was Muhammad Ali. He’s just a damn good boxer. Posted March 15, 2010mrromero@ anonymous I agree, it’s skeptical.

We all expected more from the fight. People were either hoping for a Pacquiao knockout or a Clottey knockout. That’s just the way with Manny’s fights. But that’s just the way that Clottey fights. Its slow, careful and offensive wise, just plodding. But he was put on the defensive the entire time by Pacquaio’s offense. His offense was exciting to watch, but everything else sucked.

You can bring up the Pacroid thing, and me living through his dreams and blah blah blah nonsense. You can’t prove that he does it, and I can’t prove that he hasn’t use it. All I know is he hasn’t failed a drug test yet, so there is no standard or previous history to say he’s a user except the fact that he refuses to take the tests. I agree, it’s skeptical.

Posted March 15, 2010aresthe fight was boring as hell, and arum, roach and pac fans were saying this was a fighters fight, one that’ll be much more exciting then pac/may. its pac fans that are so dumb as to buy this crap and beleive everything that arum and roach says. this is exactly what arum is banking on and its working everytime. Posted March 15, 2010FPSo, you don’t care about boxing at all. Why would you care if boxing is happening at a local gym. Why becuase it doesn’t entertain you and your fighter. What a dumbass. Posted March 15, 2010Anonymous@ Whatever keep living your dreams through Pacroid. Posted March 15, 2010t3xA$ M@D3@ LAPUK .name fighters that manny fought that mayweather didn’t that were the best fighters.moreles was a slugger but aint one of the best fighters.THE only person i give him is cotto but he just came off of bad performances Posted March 15, 2010Killa@Whatever Nice mini article, but the fight was still wack. Posted March 15, 2010WhateverMr Romero Pac fans can and will pay to watch him fight. He hasn’t been in a boring fight yet, he’s exciting, fun to watch and he’s one of the few Asian athletes that is dominating a sport that is typically dominated by other cultures and races. And you’re right. You got to love America. We have and can make choices here in America, for example, we can choose to purchase or not purchase a PPV fight. You state that “This fight was one the biggest disappointments I’ve ever seen…,” implying that you either bought the fight, or watched it free through the internet, friend’s house, etc. You think Pacquiao’s overrated, but you chose to watch him fight, even if it was to see him possibly be beat by Clottey. So it was choice you made to watch it, and if you’re a true boxing fan, you must have known Clottey’s style does not make for exciting fights, so you must have been able to anticipate that this fight could have been boring. But you chose to watch anyway, so I don’t think you should be able to criticize people or Pac fans for showing interest and buying the fight. Plus, only in America can a poor Filipino boxer from the streets become a international star through fighting some of the best boxers out there. Go on and continue to hate on Pac fans. Our country is poor, we don’t have much to take pride in, so we take pride in watching him fight and win. It’s a simple concept that haters tend to overlook. And I’ll go on to say that I work hard to make my money, and I’ll enjoy spending it any way I like. You don’t like paying for megafights on PPV? Don’t buy them then. Stick to ESPN and youtube for your fights. Posted March 15, 2010Punch drunkI was there Chris Didnt see a empty seat in the house. DopeyAll I saw was that the stadium wasn’t filled? oh man???? attendance is 50k plus. It didn’t filled the stadium? Man of course its 100k capacity. good thing it had half of it. and the 3rd largest attendance in boxing fight. You need commonsense man. LOL. Mayweather might not even get 17k capacity on MGM on his fight. Oh oh yes alot free stuff when you buy the ticket LOL. Posted March 15, 2010lapuk_atupthe only thing over rated here is mayweather ! That chump doesn’t even fight the best! Posted March 15, 2010JayblesPacquiao is crazy overrated and will get knocked unconscious by mayweather or mosley. Now bring on the hate from all you ignorant pacquiao fans. Posted March 15, 2010FordaduxI agree with you 100% the Undercards Suck big time. And i do blame Bob A. for that. And then there is the main event. After watching a Defensive minded Boxer why would i want to see mayweather I want Mostley to win and fight Manny KillaTo have this be the first fight at the Cowboy’s stadium was embarrasing for boxing. Not even close to entertaining. Posted March 15, 2010mrRomeroI agree. This fight was definately money for Bob Arum and that’s it. Pacquiao is an over rated fighter and if Bob Arum gets his way, pac will only and always fight in house boxers. This fight was one of the biggest disappointments I’ve ever seen, and I’ve been watching fights for over 30 years. I expect pacs next fight will be with Ronald McDonnald and with people being fooled by the hype Bob will probably stage that as a great maga PPV fight as well. The sad thing is…Pac fans will pay for it. You got to love America. Posted March 15, 2010 |
