Maywearther wins over Marquez

2009-09-21T10:11:00.002+08:00

Mayweather was able to gain more than his $600,000 penalty, after defeating Juan Manuel Marquez on their fight night.

LAS VEGAS (AP)—Money came back with a guarantee. Floyd Mayweather Jr. told the world he was still its best boxer despite taking 21 months off, and he backed up every boast with every jab in an impressive victory.

Although next time out, hopefully he’ll pick on somebody his own size.

Mayweather overpowered the smaller, lighter Juan Manuel Marquez for an unanimous decision Saturday night, maintaining his perfect record in his comeback from retirement.

Mayweather knocked down Marquez in the second round and then peppered him with countless damaging shots to remain unbeaten (40-0, 25 KOs). Still, his impressive effort couldn’t be viewed without weighing the obvious disadvantages in height and strength faced by the talented Marquez, a 130-pounder just 18 months ago who moved up two weight classes for this once-in-a-career payday at the MGM Grand Garden.

Marquez gains Extra bucks

2009-09-19T21:17:00.002+08:00

Here is an excerp from Dan Rafael's post from Espn.

LAS VEGAS -- Floyd Mayweather Jr. weighed in at 146 pounds on Friday afternoon, two pounds heavier than the weight stipulated in the contract for his comeback fight against lightweight champion Juan Manuel Marquez on Saturday night at the MGM Grand Garden Arena.

The excess weight will cost Mayweather $300,000 per pound, meaning Marquez will get an additional $600,000 on top of his $3.2 million guarantee, a source told ESPN.com. Mayweather's minimum guarantee is $10 million, a figure likely to dramatically increase after the pay-per-view receipts are counted.

Marquez, who has never fought heavier than 135 pounds, comfortably made 142 pounds, two less than the 144-pound contract weight.

The highly anticipated showdown for the welterweight fight between Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Juan Manuel Marquez is about to begin. So who do you think will win? Stay updated for this event or watch it live on your pc to see the final results.

The undefeated six-time champion Floyd Mayweather Jr. (39-0, 25 KOs) takes on Mexico City’s Juan Manuel Marquez (50-4-1, 37 KOs) at a catchweight of 144 pounds in a non-title fight Saturday night (Sunday in Manila) at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas.

The fight is dubbed “Number One vs Numero Uno” and the live streaming of the fight will be aired on ABS-CBN on Sunday, 10AM. The winner of the Mayweather vs Marquez fight could possibly forge a match up with our very own Filipino boxing superstar Manny “Pacman” Pacquiao.

Heres a video from youtube of Match between Bobby Lashley vs Bob Sapp.

Former pro wrestler Bobby Lashley showed that he is for real in mixed martial arts, defeating veteran fighter Bob Sapp with a technical knockout in less than two minutes at "Ultimate Chaos" in Biloxi, Miss.

As soon as the bell rung, Bobby Lashley went in for a quick takedown. He had no problem with bringing the much larger Sapp to the canvas. From there, he executed his game plan well, staying on top of Sapp and throwing a barrage of punches. Sapp tapped to signal that he wanted the fight to end, but the referee did not see it, and Lashley kept punching. Finally, Sapp tapped again, and the referee put an end to the fight at 1:17 in the first round. After the win, Lashley announced that he is ready for whoever wants to take him on.

Soccer: U.S. beats Spain 2-0

2009-06-25T11:35:00.002+08:00

BLOEMFONTEIN, South Africa (AP)—The world will surely take notice of this.

The U.S. soccer team is in the final of the Confederations Cup, beating mighty Spain 2-0.

Even more stunning, the Americans were on the verge of elimination and ready to head home last weekend before a reversal of fortune. On Wednesday, goals by Jozy Altidore and Clint Dempsey led to an upset of the planet’s top-ranked team.

Call it a miracle on grass—maybe not the World Cup, but still an American soccer echo of the U.S. hockey team’s upset of the Soviet Union at the 1980 Lake Placid Olympics.

By winning, the maligned United States advanced to its first men’s FIFA final since starting play in 1916.

Altidore scored in the 27th minute and Dempsey added a goal in the 74th as the Americans became the first team to defeat Spain since Romania in November 2006.

“It goes to show what hard work and commitment to each other can bring,” said U.S. goalkeeper Tim Howard, who made eight saves as he frustrated David Villa and Fernando Torres. “Sometimes football is a funny thing.”

Now the U.S. will play defending champion Brazil or host South Africa in Sunday’s final, which concludes a two-week tournament designed to prepare the organizers of next year’s World Cup.

“Regardless of whether we play Brazil or the Bafana Bafana, the challenge will be great,” U.S. coach Bob Bradley said.

Midfielder Michael Bradley, son of the U.S. coach, will miss the final. He received a red card for a late challenge in the 87th minute, the third American ejection of the tournament.

Still, American players had much to celebrate, given how slim the chances of such a U.S. victory seemed just a few days ago. Or any victory, for that matter. The 14th-ranked Americans were soundly defeated in their first two games in this event.

“I think it just shows that we can compete with the best. Now we need to do it on a consistent basis,” U.S. captain Carlos Bocanegra said.

Spain, the European champion, had set an international record with 15 straight victories and had tied Brazil’s record unbeaten streak of 35 games from December 1993 to January 1996.

The United States had been 1-7-1 against No. 1 teams, beating Brazil in the 1998 CONCACAF Gold Cup and tying Argentina last summer in an exhibition at Giants Stadium.

“This is an accident, a little step backward,” Spain coach Vicente del Bosque said. “We have to look forward with optimism.”

Altidore got the first goal when he outmuscled Joan Capdevila, his teammate on Spain’s Villarreal, to send an 18-yard shot in off the hand of goalkeeper Iker Casillas. Capdevila thought he was fouled by Altidore, who had engaged in some trash texting a few days ago.

“I told him, ‘Be careful of the USA.’ And he tried to say I didn’t understand Spanish, so it was just all fun and games,” Altidore said. “We’re teammates and we were just messing around with each other a little bit, but in the end we had the last laugh.”

Altidore, a 19-year-old forward from New Jersey, was so excited after he scored that he took off his jersey as he ran toward the stands in celebration, drawing a yellow card. It was the first goal against Spain in 451 minutes, since Turkey’s Semih Senturk scored on April 1, and just the third goal the Spaniards allowed in 17 games dating to last summer’s European Championship.

Dempsey sealed the victory, scoring from 6 yards when he pounced on Landon Donovan’s cross, which had bounced off Gerard Pique and the foot of Sergio Ramos.

“There will ups and downs in any cycle,” U.S. Soccer Federation president Sunil Gulati said. “I think this tournament makes that point very clearly. Tonight was a very big up.”

The U.S. opened the tournament with a 3-1 loss to world champion Italy, then was outclassed by South American champ Brazil in a 3-0 defeat. The Americans advanced over the Italians on the second tiebreaker—total goals—only by beating Egypt 3-0 on Sunday as Brazil defeated the Azzurri by the same score.

“Three games ago I think it would have been impossible to think about a night like tonight,” Howard said. “We’ve had our fair share of critics, but we stood up and took it on the chin and kept going.”

While the U.S. women have won two world championships, the men have long been outsiders and didn’t even qualify for the showcase event between 1950 and ’90. This ranked alongside the upset of Brazil as one of their top wins, just below victories over England in the 1950 World Cup, Portugal and Mexico in the 2002 World Cup and Colombia in the 1994 World Cup.

Spain outshot the U.S. 29-9 in near-freezing conditions at the Free State Stadium, but Howard came up big every time he was needed.

“We knew we had to pick and choose our moments to go forward,” Dempsey said. “We’re happy with the result and we know we’re going to have our work cut out to get anything out of the final.”

The United States had lost its three previous matches against Spain, including 1-0 in an exhibition on June 4 last year at Santander. But the Americans were boosted by Bocanegra, who had been sidelined since injuring a hamstring during a World Cup qualifier on June 6. He played left back instead of central defense.

On this night, everything came together.

“This win is huge for American soccer,” Dempsey said. “This one is much sweeter because we were down and out, came back fighting.”

AMD and ATI Fully Merges

2009-05-07T14:25:00.002+08:00

Three years after buying ATI, AMD is reorganizing its GPU and CPU business under the same roof. The goal is to unify the company's goals, but also unify CPU and GPU in a single chip - the vision that led to the ATI acquisition in the first place. As far as we know, the plan is to get a fused CPU and GPU sometime in 2011.

People have becoming impatient and investors must have questioned the logic of getting a multi-billion debt, asking for when it will pay off. Since then, AMD has been using "Fusion" left and right, but they basically believe in heterogeneous computing, which is the usage of CPUs associated with arrays of smaller units, like those found in GPUs. NVIDIA is currently doing quite well with CUDA and Intel is working on Larrabee, its own GPU.

AMD to release 6 core Opteron - June and 16 core chip by 2011

2009-05-06T16:26:00.002+08:00

Posted late last month from computerworld.com

AMD is trying to get ahead of Intel Corp., which released its six-core Xeon 7400 server chip last September and plans to add an eight-core processor code-named Nehalem EX next year, Insight64 analyst Nathan Brookwood said.

Advanced Micro Devices Inc. last week said it will release a six-core Opteron processor in June, five months ahead of schedule. And it detailed plans to add chips supporting up to 12 cores next year and 16 in 2011.

AMD, which reported a $416 million first-quarter loss last week, said the six-core server chip, code-named Istanbul, will provide up to a 30% performance boost over current quad-core Opterons while using the same amount of power.

Istanbul will be followed early next year by a chip code-named Magny-Cours, which will ship in eight- and 12-core models, AMD said. And in 2011, the company plans to release a processor called Interlagos, which will be offered with 12 and 16 cores.

Vista will not be ditched until atleast 2011

2009-05-06T16:18:00.003+08:00

Microsoft Corp. will not dump Vista when Windows 7 launches and plans to keep selling it to computer makers, system builders, volume licensees and consumers at retail until at least January 2011, a Microsoft spokesman said, citing long-running policy.

The company, however, will drop support for the three consumer editions of Windows Vista in less than three years.
