Saturday night, the "Fight Of The Century" went down at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas between Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao with 16,000 celebrities and high rollers in attendance and millions watching worldwide. However the outcome -- a unanimous decision, which was predicted by many experts, left much to be desired. With all of the one-night-stand boxing fans rushing in to judge on what a good boxing match should be, most were largely disappointed to see a very tactical and finesse bout won by Mayweather. Guns N Roses vocalist Axl Rose was one of those mad at the fight and took to Twitter last night to express his frustration at how the fight transpired. He is also looking for another "free fight" some time soon, which would never happen with all of the money that could be made by all parties. -

Axl Rose has been linked to Guns N' Roses since the beginning of time. The erratic frontman, however, was in a few other bands prior to making it big in the late 1980s. He was in the first lineup of L.A. Guns before forming his own band, Hollywood Rose with GN'R guitarist Izzy Stradlin. Their five-song demo was released in 2004 from the archives, and now fans are able to download an EP from Rose's first project, Rapidfire.According to Ultimate Classic Rock, Rapifire's demos have been available online for a few years, but the official release only came after Rose's legal blessing.

"Oh, and I can't wait for the 500-page illegal harassment of a cease and desist. Snore .. zzz ... zzz. Heard of interference of business and SLAPP suits? I own the copyrights, the masters, the photos, the performances and I have the receipt that I paid for it all ... LOL ... open and shut."The EP, "Ready to Rumble," is available for purchase.
