thanks f18

justplugit · 05-12-2005, 09:55 PM

Great site F18, good background info on all the guys i wasn't aware of.

fishaholic18 · 05-13-2005, 06:30 AM

Who do you guys think will win the million?
I think it will be Peter.

justplugit · 05-13-2005, 07:47 AM

Hope it's Peter,but your down to some pretty tough fighters with Gomez,my second choice, the snake, and then Jesse being the best athelete imho. Gotta love Peter, he seems like a real salt of the earth guy.

Slingah · 05-13-2005, 08:56 PM

Im rooting for Peter.....but who knows??

justplugit · 05-13-2005, 10:22 PM

From the looks of his face he would be wise to listen to Dundee.He gave him good advice to tuck his chin in behind his shoulder and slipping rather than standing square and taking the punches. Hope he can apply it,but it looks like his Father trained him different. First thing he did after the last fight was check his ears in the mirror. Cauliflower is an ugly enough vegetable,let alone havin ears that look like their ready for a butter sauce.

Peter Lajoie · 05-14-2005, 12:17 AM

I have followed it from Day one,,,,I hope Peter wins it but, I really think Brinkley or that Alfonso kid is gonna win....but we will have to wait and see....Two years ago I saw Peter Fight at Mohegan Sun....He knocked this guy out 41 seconds into the first round...

justplugit · 05-14-2005, 10:33 PM

Both Jesse and Alphonso will be winners. Jesse will end up with some movie contract, and Alphhonso is already selling his pictures on his web site.

fishaholic18 · 05-15-2005, 08:53 AM

I think it will be Peter and Sergio in the final fight.

Slingah · 05-15-2005, 04:26 PM

FIGHT NITE

WoodsHole · 05-15-2005, 04:37 PM

From what I hear from the watering holes of R.I. . Peter takes on the Latin Snake "Live". Lot of Buzzzzz in Prov..

Clammer · 05-15-2005, 05:27 PM

S/B fishin // Pete on one Channel Surivor [sp] on the other

JohnR · 05-15-2005, 09:21 PM

Been following since day 1. Didn't think I would like it all that much but I enjoy everything other than the Rocky IV Slo-Mo's when a punch lands...

Good fight but Manfredo worries me most of the time he goes out. Last week - did Brinkley get lucky with that punch? He was losing fairly big until then...

Yeah, they should save that for the replays.
Peter vs. Sergio in the final.
It's on a week from Tuesday and I'm gonna be on a plane coming home from Florida....

Clammer · 05-15-2005, 10:54 PM

He,s a heck of a better person & fighter Than his old man at that age

justplugit · 05-16-2005, 08:54 AM

Ya, you can tell Peter is the real stuff.

Helluva a fight with Gomez. Sergio is like a wire man, will be tough for Jesse to beat.

Gomez definately battled and can battle. He is young. His jaw was broken ,did you see the swelling? His face was battered. Peter and the Snake in Vegas from the moles in Prov..

justplugit · 05-23-2005, 05:18 PM

Sooo, who will win the match tomorrow night. I'm thinkin and hopin Peter, but that wireman Snake is nobodies lunchmeat.

Peter Lajoie · 05-23-2005, 05:27 PM

Karl couldnt of put it better..... Manfredo is gonna walk away with the title tommorow night......He has allot more experience then the Snake....

Clammer · 05-23-2005, 06:43 PM

Hope ya right // but he has to catch the snake /that kid is quick// he,s gotta slow him down ,or he may lose on rounds ...........

justplugit · 05-24-2005, 09:13 PM

CRAP.

i'm goin to bed.

Clammer · 05-24-2005, 10:12 PM

Alfonso /was awesome ///

the snake was too quick /& also surprized Peter / when he had him in the ropes & couldn,t do any damage ////////////

fishaholic18 · 05-25-2005, 12:32 AM

Congrats to the Snake, even though I don't like the Punk, he won fair and square. Peter didn't have what it took to beat him tonight. Maybe next time.
