Palookaville Tavern

Who do we like here? I am personally more excited for this fight then I was for the Pacquiao fight, however, the winner of this fight should fight the winner of Pacquiao and Clottey. Wow, this is why I love boxing. One mega fight falls out but, there is another one that steps up to the plate. Homerun boys, homerun.

Did Floyd sabotage this fight to avoid fighting Pacquiao? Is Manny juicing and trying to hide it? Who do you blame for the disintegraton of the Pacquiao-Mayweather fight

None of the above. I want a Mayweather Pacquiao fight right now. Do the right thing champions. Make this for boxing fans alike worldwide. This fight is way bigger then the both of them at this point. I dont want to say boxing needs this, blah blah, because if this fight doesnt happen boxing will still be here doing good. But we want this fight terribly bad. The general public and major networks ar...

Jermain Taylor got starched in the closing seconds of his bout against Arthur Abraham and was hauled off to a Berlin hospital with a severe concussion. The Super Six is a round-robin format that requires him to fight at least twice more. Should he continue with the tournament, or pull out and save his brain? If he drops out, what should be done about the round-robin format?

Yes, boxing is still undoubtedly surrounded by desert and unquestionably stunted by bad we...

Is he on track to being the greatest? Unbeaten and has handily beat every guy he has faced. Did he pick the right opponents or is it hard to give such an outspoken and cocky guy his due credit. WHo wins against Marquez?

How good was Floyd against Marquez? Did he regain his spot as the world's No. 1 fighter from that performance. Is Pacquiao still on top? Why won't anybody of the top guys step up and face Mosley or Williams?

I think this is a valid point and question. I think it happens to all the great fighters. What keeps them hungry, what keeps then pushing on to be even better and work even harder in the gym when they really have almost everything they could ever want. Fame, money, respect. I think it will speak volumes for Manny's career if he was able to pull off this fight. Cotto is no slouch and will be coming...
