Another historic fight with the Filipino ring hero Manny Pacquiao is lined to happen at the MGM Grand Hotel, Las Vegas this coming Nov. 14, 2009.

Pacquiao, the reigning pound-for-pound king, hoping to win world titles in seven weight categories, favored so much to knock-out Cotto. Despite all acclamations Pacquiao stayed humble.

Throughout the years, Pacquiao has trained well and has been well disciplined about his health. Freddie Roach, the American trainer who has guided Pacquiao is confident enough that he will win this fight.

“We’re ready” as Roach said.

And so are the Filipinos excited when this fight night comes (Sunday morning here). If so happen Manny wins this fight it will be the first time in history of boxing a fighter snatches 7 weight division titles, something we should be very proud of.

Go Manny!

Go Pinoy!

In Bacolod city, the people paused for 3 hours to watch the much awaited game the “Dream Match” between Manny “Pacman” Pacquiao and Oscar “The golden boy” De la hoya. Two weeks before the fight night, analyst says that there’s a great mismatch between the height and reach advantage that Pacquiao will no way win the fight.

However yesterday, Pacquiao beats the odd. He won the fight.
