Pacquiao did say that this was going to be his last fight before it happened, don't how true that is, but he wants to run for elections on may.

But regarding the fight, I would say it would probably more entertaining then their previous two fights because of the knockdowns even though the first one was more off an off balance shot, but the fight was good, bradley had a good gameplan, but later on he was losing track of his gameplan, not too much, but there was some points where he was effective but pacquiao was aggressive and explosive, but cautious as well, which I liked to see, would have liked to see more confidence in jumping in, but a great fight nevertheless.

Even atlas' shouting was not enough to get bradley to do what was required to win, as pacquiao is always moving and hitting at awkard angles, a better farewell fight then mayweather vs berto.

lol at the interview where they mentioned freddie wanted pacquiao to face canelo then mayweather.

I def enjoyed the fight.
 

I also saw the joshua vs martin fight, a let down, martin was all talk, but nothing to back it up, really pathetic. He was undefeated with 88% knockout ratio lol, who was he fighting.

I used to love watcing pacquiao fights, but slowly by slowly he is starting to become irrelevant in some way, I don't really have the same support as his fights since his third marquez fight and then after the mayweather fight, maybe he has been out of almost a year that i dont find him to be the same fighter, but tonight could change that.

bradley had injured his leg twice for both pacquiao fights, bad luck, the second fight he seemed to have figured him out but then his path diverted, but this will make one of them relevant again.

Soreness: Lower body
Injury: gluteus medius or maximus.

Condition: sunny day with some light winds, dry track, it was a good day

    hip, glute, hamstring, calf activation and mobility drills
   
    BSS x 0kg x 6, 15kg x 6, 25kg x 6 Right leg, 25kg x 3 Left leg
      - Failed, right leg was fine, but with the left leg, the glute was so painful to do raise up, every rep it become more sore, that i could not continue, after i could not do bw bss because my glute was sore, the part of the glute that is painful is the area when you sit legs forward, rotate lower leg from knee to foot towards your body (bring your foot towards your body so your shin is perpendicular to the other leg forming a 4, the stretch you get in the upper gluteus area that links with the iliopsoas is the one i think i sprained, i can't rotate my lower leg inwards. i think it is the top of the gluteus maximus. So I had to stop and it was hard to walk like limped a 20min journey, which turned to a 35 min limp back, it was downhil so better.

Cool down
   stretch quads, hamstring, hips, tennis ball foam rolled my left gluteus maximus
   limp back - more like a waddle, but avoiding placing weight on entire left leg for too long.

basically what i said above, had major doms from last workout, until today a little better, the uphill walk helped ease it, during the runs the pains were still there mild. but once i did the bss making sure of staying upright, it was a little struggle to stay upright and balance as well.

EDIT: the spot is close to the hips then directly top glutes.

This workout in my opinion is more tougher than the endurance workout I did, as I am weak in terms of lower body strength and this requires more mental energy then endurance running imo.

will leave comment when i get back

in the eubank jr fight, chris blackwell suffered a serious beating he is in an induced coma with bleeding in the brain from the fight, chris eubank himself told eubank jr to aim for the body as he was being beaten severely. I am going to watch the entire fight and see again but i remember blackwell fighting back so i understand why ref didn't stop it.

THE UPVOTE BUTTON IS OVERHEATING@!)@!#( 

Probably LBSS's dunk did it, last time i checked it had 10 likes.
 

I watched the kell brook fight and as expected a waste of my time, just a mandatory, kell gained absolutely nothing but an undeserved W over a weak opponent.

chris eubank jr, not really interesting guy to watch but he is improving

and lastly the ppv ward vs barrerra the one i had my eyes on, the undercard was almost putting me to sleep, but there was action from both fighters jo jo diaz is very quick and has fast combinations that he rocked valez i think his name was, with some good shots and was suprised to see him just keep coming forward using the wide head movements just smothering diaz and cut him at the side of the eye and it was effective to some degree. but diaz won it.

then the main event, andre ward being one of my favourite fighters, this time in the light heavy weight division, he was powerful and still had his cat like reflexes and power but not so much on his toes a little flat footed, but that knockout was awesome, barerra was built tall and looked dangerous but he did not show it, his defence need improvement no head movement, he would try and just overpower him as he is the bigger fighter and looked taller and has a bigger reach but expected some more boxing but it didn't happen as he is a powerful type of guy. well deserved win for ward, but i don't think he is ready for kovalev he is just a destroyer.

 

for me I love creating a nice GUI for the software I code. But I do not like coding the UI.
