I am but I'm absolutely knackered 22 weeks pregnant. DH not long home from work and I've got salt and pepper chips in the oven! Oh and hoping for a Mayweather win Grin

I know there is little chance of mcgregor winning but I would rather him than mayweather who seems like a horrible person. I had a bet on it being a draw to make it a bit more interesting 💰 One of the perks of living in Vegas 😆

Dh has been asked to his mate's house to watch it with "the lads" but he doesn't want to go as they'll all be drinking. It's midday here in Oz and they've started drinking vodka apparently.

DH stopped all alcohol two years ago and doesn't like being around it. They keep texting him to ask where he is.

I sometimes think they're idiots. I haven't said anything to DH in terms of whether he should go or not....he doesn't want to though.

Mrs can you give DH an excuse? Maybe say to him Ds or what ever isn't well, you went out for lunch and had a wonderful ne so he needs to drive etc

I did the total opposite today, DH desperate to go and see the fight but was on his own because I'd have to stay here with DC (boo hoo) so I found him a pool side friend and they ended up going togetaher. I need to stay up and make sure he gets home for my own piece of mind but...

DailyMailDontStealMyThread · 27/08/2017 04:42

Bloody auto correct 😳

JonSnowsWhore · 27/08/2017 04:53

Ooh I'm getting nervous! & excited!

DailyMailDontStealMyThread · 27/08/2017 04:56

Well??

MrsTerryPratchett · 27/08/2017 04:57

Alright. We're here. I've told DH that MN is awake so stay with me...

farfarawayfromhome · 27/08/2017 04:57

missjaysays I am loving your shameless dedication to interiors snooping! Much more interesting than the boxing. Scout the other rooms too Smile

Ontheboardwalk · 27/08/2017 04:58

I'm awake but not watching it. I only clicked on the thread expecting to see who won.

Was it supposed to start this late?

JonSnowsWhore · 27/08/2017 05:02

Yeah it was billed to start about 4-5am

DailyMailDontStealMyThread · 27/08/2017 05:03

Mrs I'm in for the ride just so I can anticipate DH returning to the hotel room.

I'm watching gators attack ATM Smile

NovaArt3mis · 27/08/2017 05:03

They said "roughly 4am" boardwalk so not too far out.

Ontheboardwalk · 27/08/2017 05:04

Ah ok thanks, was just wondering.

Pawpainting · 27/08/2017 05:10

Here we go. Could all be over in 10 mins!

NovaArt3mis · 27/08/2017 05:12

Ten could be a conservative estimate!

Hamiltoes · 27/08/2017 05:13

Could all be over in 1 minute, but I've got £20 on Connor to make it a bit more interesting Grin

MrsTerryPratchett · 27/08/2017 05:13

I'm assuming a TKO in the first wee while.

WestleyAndButtockUp · 27/08/2017 05:17

Efficiency and composure from McGregor

WestleyAndButtockUp · 27/08/2017 05:18

Conor exceeding expectations because of technical countershots

Conor wins first round. He's said he'll win in the 4th

Reppin · 27/08/2017 05:18

SouthPole: Mayweather is a domestic abuser and Mcgregor is a massive racist. I don't think there is a good guy in this ridiculous pantomime. It is all fake and hideous.

Pawpainting · 27/08/2017 05:19

Im thinking mayweather will let it go on a bit longer than that. Gotta give people their money's worth Grin I'm thinking TKO in rnds 4-7? Or my draw will be a winner lol 👍🏻

Pawpainting · 27/08/2017 05:20

Mcgregor is racist? Link?

WestleyAndButtockUp · 27/08/2017 05:21

Mayweather is also the promoter. So yes, he does need to give people their money's worth. And he's good enough defensively to choose what he does.

teainbed · 27/08/2017 05:24

Listening on the radio whilst feeding the baby. I wasn't going to be up specifically for it but I'm glad he woke now!

MrsTerryPratchett · 27/08/2017 05:24

Gotta give people their money's worth True dat.
