Okay so last night am laid face down in bed in a pool of my own drool when at 0317AM my drunken stupor is rudely disturbed by the worst text imaginable.

As you might guess, i intend to watch De La Hoya/Mayweather above all else on saturday night.

this is it word for word:

"Hey you. stupid of me to say this but feeling upset right because i had planned this weekend to be wid u 4 ages as we met a YEAR this weekend but obviously u find watching sports more important than seeing me which means u dont give a toss about this relationship. sorry but this just says it all at this point - u dont really care, wuda been a different matter if i saw u regularly, i wudnt mind. but its been a month and the date we was meant to c each other youd rather watch boxing. sorry (name of affection witheld...) but i cant carry on like this anymore. u are meant to be my boyfriend who loves me x"

TYPICAL F#CKING WOMAN ATTITUDE.

Now 9:11 AM and i am yet to reply.

How exactly do you convey to a brain dead woman whos lone passion in life is grooming herself the magnitude of De La Hoya/Mayweather?

I would rather roll over my own grandmother in a landrover than miss this fight.

Sh#t the bed lads, what is the smartest way to play this? Im assuming putting boxing above all other social activities and responsibilities must of also landed you in similar sh#tty circumstances over the years? Otherwise im a lone freak!

Yes, I'm sure it has happened to the best of us. But I am truly blessed to now have a girlfriend who likes boxing!

The most difficult thing to convince women is how any date in the calendar is JUST ANOTHER DAY. I personally couldn't care less if I marked my birthday a few days either side, and I don't need the commercially-driven farce of Valentine's Day to prove I love my girlfriend. But they just don't get it. I could be romantic for 363 days a year, but if I didn't go all-out on her birthday and Valentine's, I'd be in big trouble!

None of which helps you, just showing a bit of empathy. Take it she wouldn't settle for marking your "anniversary" tonight or Sunday, or both?

Personally I wouldn't go out with anyone who uses that juvenile text slang.....


BUT - my suggestion would be compromise - apologise to her, take her out to a lovely dinner (maybe flowers - bit gay but it works) BUY HER A PRESENT.... 'Make love' to her in a gentle and loving way....

Later in the night, explain that you're sorry and she's the most important thing to you but also explain the importance of the fight....

Make sure you stay at yours and SKY Plus or record thye fight - watch it in the morning...


OR - just sort apologise send her some flowers etc etc buy her presents - organise something for the weekend - (I mean it is a long weekend - including bank holiday) BUT explain the importance of teh fight and that you would like to watch it. Say you can spend teh rest of the weekend together - after all you will be watching it when she's asleep probably...

I bet she wouldn't have a problem with a boyfriend watching the World Cup final in a similar scenario. Hell, bosses even make arrangements to cater for workers who want to watch games during office hours. In football, all can be forgiven. But tell a girl you want to watch a boxing match instead of go out with her, or tell your boss you don't want to work because of a fight.... No chance.

take her from behind while you watch the fight over her shoulder, then you get to see the boxing, and she gets to feel wanted !!

I get this all the time!

Theres no easy way out (theres no shortcut hooo000mme).

You will have to just let her know the magnitude of the fight and explain that if she loves you, she has to let you indulge in your passions, otherwise you stop being who you are.

OK, so you will get a 'oh, so its MY fault! Dont make ME feel bad because YOU are ABANDONING me' - but so long as you dont give in and just let her get some perspective on it she will be eating out of your hand again sunday night

Therein lies the problem. She lives in manchester and i live in Leeds.. hence why it is difficult to see each other on a regular basis as i have loads of other sh#t to do on weekends and when i usually do agree on a date to go over to manc it always seems to coincide with a god damn fight!!

Haha. I agree with you mate, but if you saw her you might change your opinion. And the things she can do....

Yeah i dont have Sky plus, hence why im staying in leeds and watching the fight in a sports bar with the rest of societies filth, while she'll be in manchester plotting my execution.

Inspired idea, do you think the bar manager will take exception to this though? Cant risk getting thrown out before the fight starts off.

sod the bar manager, its quite a thrill being watched...

Stop been gay and put your foot down.

Cool! That is one of my favourite Rocky songs also....the scene in 4 when it i splayed is also one of the best 'montages'...

take her to a hotel that has sky sports 1 in the rooms, don't mention boxing at all to her, get her drunk during the evening, she passes out , you then get to watch the boxing in the comfort of your hotel room

A bird you pork once a month is giving you grief merits a panic striken thread.

Nah. Not buying OHR.

If she meant dick to you, you'd be seeing her more than once a month.

Get some beers, some fig rolls and cheesy wotsits and watch the boxing.

When you wake up with an orange cock don't blame me.

At least you'll have seen the boxing.

i had planned this weekend to be wid u 4 ages as we met a YEAR this weekend

So she planned behind your back?

Women are obsolete when we have things like Instant meals and blow up dolls.

Why do you think Man started off with Inventing the wheel?

No man should have to go to Manchester either.

Oi! It is too good for the likes of you Max

Just blow her out this weekend, you are the man and if you are the man she will sulk then forgive you. Lock the door, turn off your mobile and take the phone off the hook. If you have a firm grip on her then you are going to be forgiven.

Instant meals give you bad shits anyway and heavy hands probably pop the blow up doll.

this is easy - get some film of oscar de la hoya in his early days, show the film to your girlfriend. she'll immediately take a liking to the golden boy, then purchase a good quality oscar delahoya mask from your local sports shop. invite her over for the fight and just before the bell put the mask on and whip your own GOLDEN BOY out. simple. this way you'll be able to watch the fight while she gives 'o' pleasure to oscar delahoya (which should keep her quiet until at least the middle rounds if you are a real man. job done.

The gloves may make finding the loose rib easier too.

True, Women love the Latin look.

Will Overhand buy his Album though to make this plan work?

Boxing is for life:Girlfriends are just for sex lol

Cant you invite her down to leeds and take her out for diner before the fight?.

Yeah...then you could rohipnol (sp) her so she doesn't talk about cushions and colour schemes through the boxing

"she walked into a door"

is that clear?

brilliant post chambers

I was spiked with rohypnol once in a club, it gives you the shits, you know.
