Manny vs. Cotto ?

Well, fight fans, it is on. On November 14, 2009, the world will witness another great fight and this time it will be between Pacquaio and Cotto of Puerto Rico. This will be another close one to call as we all know that he is a tough customer. Like Pacquaio, he will be coming at you with no backing down. He will not be racing around the ring like some of the other boxers do. It will be all blood and guts. These two are the world's finest boxers. Hopefully, they both will come in at approximately the same weight which will be at 145 pounds, give or take a few pounds. Even though Cotto is ranked sixth by the Sports poll, he is still considered a dangerous fighter. No doubt when they get into the ring to face each other, there will be an an immediate confrontation. And all of us fight fans can expect to be thoroughly entertained. This will be an edge-of-your seat type of fight. No question, it will be all action from round one. These two fighters will definitely demonstrate mental toughness, courage and resilence. You can count on that.

As stated earlier, they will not be running from each other around in circles. Oh no, no! Fight fans will have none of that. We all have witnessed good boxing matches in the past but this type of match can accurately be called a true "fight."
You can expect this fight to produce just as much revenue if not more as Pacquaio's last fight with Hatton where almost $9 million dollars was generated from that fight.

The last Pacquaio fight with Hatton generated approximately 850,000 pay-per-view sales. Like Bob Arum, I feel that this fight with Cotto will generate much more in sales. Being Puerto Rican, you can expect Cotto will have a large base of his countrymen behind him and this will push up the total sales tremendously. Anyway, fight fans, lets make sure that we all will be watching this fight in November and witness both of these great fighters to definitely put on an exhibition in the ring.

Arturo Gatti--What Happened?

I am just as stunned as the rest of the world. I was completely caught off guard when I read on the internet of him being found dead in his hotel room. Did his wife really commit the crime or was his death a hitman job? Hopefully, the authorities will get to the bottom of this mystery.

Floyd vs. Marquez

Is it really going to happen? I surely hope so and can hardly wait. All Floyd has to do is get pass Marquez, if he can. Now since his injury to his ribs has healed, he should be ready to fight. Like I have said earlier, he has a very tough opponent, Marquez. Floyd will not be able to duck and dodge. He will have to fight Marquez head on and I mean no running, like he has done in many of his fights. Yes, he is agile but I question his ability to really take a solid punch, like the ones that Pacquaio and Marquez have been known to throw. Anyway, we all will see in September. Who will your money be on? If you like, participate in the survey to this blog. I really would like to see how others feel about this uupcoming fight.
