Exactly, 'Husker.

Walker, Texas Ranger or WWE's Big Show and that's about it.

They are hyping it like it may turn into some kind of entertaining test for Floyd, but the tea leaves say this will be a one-sided rout giving Mayweather his first stoppage in years.

One thing I don't get is folks trying to discredit Floyd's record.

If there is a fighter in the last 20 years who fought more guys coming off huge wins, huge KOs, or title wins than Floyd Mayweather, feel free to name him.

I'll wait.

Oscar De La Hoya
Maybe he forgot to add, "and won" at the end then there would be no one. DLH lost all his biggest bouts.

Correct, KBB.

But even so, look at some of the guys DLH fought, then look at who they fought right before Oscar.

There are some KOs, but not a whole lot of career defining wins.

Pretty much every guy Floyd has fought since Oscar was a guy coming off a very significant win.

Just not the same, even for DLH who fought everybody.

Beating Andre Berto or Adrien Broner isn't a significant win

I'll watch this because it's free on television here in Korea. I don't think i could have been any more underwhelmed when Berto was announced as an opponent, surely this won't be his final fight, Andre Berto? DaFuck!

Undercard:

Jonathan Oquendo drops and decisions Jhonny Gonzalez over 10. Gonzo looked poor leading up to the Mares upset, he looked like shitt in the Russell fight, and now he loses here.

Groves edges the second. Jack spending a lot of time waiting to pick his shots.

Very competitive fight through 5. Groves is more active but Jack is landing the right hand well when he throws it.....

These close rounds will surely go to the 'home' fighter being promoted by FMJ.

Good last two rounds for Groves, though he's throwing a lot of punches and I wonder how much energy he'll have later in the fight.

Some good body work from Jack that Groves doesn't like...

I lost count of my score but I think I have Jack ahead.

Stick a fork in Groves. 7 round fighter. Go back across the pond and fight bums.

Groves needs a second wind. He has to keep Jack from coming forward

Groves needs something big to pull this out. He has failed to control distance

Close fight. First round costs Groves. From 10-9 Groves to 10-8 Jack. That will decide it.
