Woo-Hah, I'm in business...

Finally got all my ducks in a row regarding the Great Clutter Cleanup, thanks to my buddy Brendan and some wonderful freeware that does unspeakable things to DVDs. So now the push is on.

Watched Raw finally last night, and there are but two words to describe the show. Popcorn Fart. La Roca returned for a one night only appearance (as the Raw crew was on the west coast), and gave Nick Dinsmore the rub in a major way, cutting a serious promo on the Coach(who had been running Eugene down on Bischoff's orders) and allowing Eugene to pull a Foley(copping Rock's catchphrase, and giving the Coach a Retard Elbow.) Other then that, the show was average, with Kane(as expected) going over in the 20-man #1 Contender Battle Royale with help from HBK. Not sure what they're thinking pushing Kane to the #1 slot, as he's involved in a stupid storyline with Matt/Lita, and it would be a good time to push someone like Edge as a main eventer before the inevitable return of the Belt to HHH.

Did not watch Smackdown last night, and from the spoilers, I didn't miss much.

Boxing this weekend on HBO, which will include your opportunity to see Roy Jones "knocked the fuck out", as my boy Shaddax put it. Also on the card is Floyd "Pretty Boy" Mayweather going to the Junior Welterweight division to take on DeMarcus Corley. This should be a good fight, though I'd expect the 31-0 Mayweather to go over here, as he's looking at taking on either Artuto Gatti or possibly going all the way up to 154 to take on Oscar De La Hoya. That road runs through Cory Spinks, though, and Mayweather, cocky as he is, doesn't seem to want to go there just yet.

Fun Corley fact: he wears women's undergarments. No joke.

Mayweather's probably got his number, but I don't think he'll be able to track down Oscar...De La's got that date with Bernard Hopkins coming up two fights from now (first is Felix Sturm) and that ought to keep him busy into the fall. Gatti makes more sense, since he's a money fight and also kinda done. If Mayweather fights Spinks at any point, that'll be really fascinating; I'd bet on Floyd, but he'll have more trouble finding Spinks to hit him than he has anyone else he's fought in quite a while.
