Amir Khan's back.

Sadly, I just don't like Amir Khan but what a cracking fight for the WBC Super Middleweight title between Froch and Pascal, I didn't have it by 8 rounds tho to Froch but well deserved to him.

Theres some news about the weight thing.

Pacquiao believed he was going in at 146

Interesting. Kind of lame though. If you don't bring it up ahead of time and decide to being it up later 'if' Paq happens to lose, might make for the works of a rematch ;) After all, this is big bucks for the both of them. Damn, I wish I could fight sometimes and make that coin.

This was embarrasing for Oscar, all the talk before the fight. Especially the knockout talk, that was dispicable.

I just believe Manny came in with a different gameplan then De La Hoya thought and Manny showed his true speed right from the get go, De La Hoya just didn't know what to do. Great performance by Manny Pacquiao!

I am hoping to see Floyd "Money" Mayweather come fight Manny "Pacman" Pacquiao. That would be entertaining.

We were thinking the same thing, Mayweather comes out of retirement to fight Paq.

This DLH fight was really awkward watching. I've never seen DLH fight so poorly ever. Looks like he was throwing it in the fifth. Strange fight. Something just doesn't sit well with me.

Paq is the man though. Love his style. The bugger learned a lot from Roach on how to control his aggression and the angles and speed he used was phenomenal.

He is the P4P king! If Ring Magazine doesn't give him that rating, they are high.

I look forward to a Paq vs Hatton fight though that may be more dangerous than fighting Hoya. Paq vs Mayweather, that would be great. I'm still waiting for someone to kick the Pretty Boy's arse though I'll admit that will be hard.

Boy, along with myself and the rest of the media, we are shocked. It actually turned out to be kind of a junk fight and the under cards were poor.

I have a feeling if Paq met Hatton, Hatton will be destroyed in under 5 rounds.

Mayweather would be amazing tho because its the fight everyone will want to see I think Mayweather got out at the right moment i.e undefeated but in terms of those big fights it was to early.

I saw more stuff about hoya supposedly "throwing" the fight, I highly doubt this is the case he was just outboxed imo.

There were only a couple of us in the house that really seemed to be watching it closely and DLH looked like he was throwing it in the fifth or six, can't remember the exact round. He was much better looking against Mayweather and to think he went from that to this is quite peculiar. Seriously, I don't believe it was merely just Manny being a better fighter.

    • Microsoft is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable

      Thanks to some of the other recent Windows improvements, I'm optimistic about this one. My quick wishlist would be: perf like the older menu, merge both menus or at the very least, the older menu should be a flyout, not a simulated click to the old menu, and lastly, a customization window to let users move items from one menu to another, so I could bring Send To back to the main menu, and the OneDrive settings to the older.

      This Gigabyte AMD RX 9070 XT is very good deal despite the launch of 9070 GRE by Sayan Sen Recently we reviewed AMD's latest 1440p gaming card, the Radeon RX 9070 GRE 12GB, for $549. The card is in stock too at that price, though if you want significantly better performance and don't mind spending a bit more, the Gigabyte Gaming model of RX 9070 XT is currently on sale for just $650 (purchase link under the specs table down below). The card employs Gigabyte's WINDFORCE cooling system which combines multiple design elements such as alternate-spinning Hawk fans, a vapor chamber, and composite heat pipes to manage heat dissipation. The Server-grade Thermal conductive gel further helps in this department. The inclusion of a semi-passive cooling mode allows the fans to remain inactive under low workloads, which allows for reduced noise operation during lighter usage. There is dual BIOS switch that allows toggling between performance and silent modes. The technical specifications of the Gigabyte Radeon RX 9070 XT GAMING OC 16G are given in the table below: Specification Value Core Clock Boost Clock: up to 3060 MHz Game Clock: up to 2520 MHz Stream Processors 4096 Memory Clock 20 Gbps Memory Size 16GB Memory Type GDDR6 Memory Bus 256-bit Card Bus Interface PCI Express 5.0 Maximum Resolution 7680 × 4320 Multi-View Support 4 displays Card Dimensions L=288 mm, W=132 mm, H=56 mm Recommended Power Supply 750W Power Connectors 3 × 8-pin Video Outputs 2 × DisplayPort 2.1a 2 × HDMI 2.1b Get it at the link below: GIGABYTE Radeon RX 9070 XT Gaming OC 16GB Graphics Card, GV-R9070XTGAMING OC: $649.99 (Sold and Shipped by Amazon US) (Was: $740) This Amazon deal is US-specific and not available in other regions unless specified.
