Everyone is really excited with the Pacquiao vs. Cotto match this coming Saturday (Sunday in the Philippines). How will you watch it? In the Philippines, the Big Dome in Araneta will be showing the fight live in big screen and for a fee for anyone who are interested will surely witness the "battle royale" in a an exciting match. In my case, I can't go to Araneta and can't even go to theaters to watch it live so I am planning to visit Bleuken or Telepisodes' websites to find links to watch the match. Other alternatives will be through the use of SOPCast which is a peer-to-peer connection that lets you share or view online streaming of TV Shows and like this Pacquiao Cotto event.
How about you how will you watch Pacquiao vs. Cotto live? Share it with us.
A controversy just blurt out of the cyberspace today due to news that Congressman from the Philippines will be spending several dollars/pesos and absent on the opening of the session of the Congress just to watch the upcoming fight Pacquiao vs. Cotto this November 14. This triggers some members of the Congress to say that these representatives that will be enjoying the match is so irresponsible. Imagine they will spend some amount of money (which I don't know if it came from their own pockets or from the tax that we are paying) for the boxing fight of our Pacquiao despite the fact that the country suffers from the previous calamities.
My personal opinion about this is that it is just fine if it doesn't affect their responsibilities as representative of the country (specially if they are not actually doing anything even if they are present) and as long as they are not spending the money of the people. If its their own money then let it be. They have the freedom to do that. If not then file a graft case on the ombudsman they deserve it.
Why just they can't watch it on TV?
The fight promotional series for the Pacquiao vs. Cotto match will be aired on HBO live on October 24, Saturday. It is the usual reality shows that made specifically for boxing events like this upcoming fight in November. It contains the drama behind the match which is usually composed of rich footage of the practices, the places where both fighters originated and the inspirations Manny Pacquiao and Miguel Cotto are holding on to pursue or defend their titles.
Actually prior to this 24/7 series, there's a lot of video clips released by HBO containing some portion of the said award winning documentary series. Some them are dubbed with titles "Face off", "Heritage" and "Tattoo's of the Past." All of these video are shown in HD quality emphasizing the strength and traits of both fighter. Here's the Pacquiao Cotto 24/7 "Heritage" video:
I usually watched Pacquiao's fight and the Cotto vs. Pacquiao match is one of the event that I will not want to miss. However, based on the different fights that I watched of Pacman, I saw him that he can handle every opponent that comes on her way. Even he even punched on the face on or body. However, Miguel Cotto of Puerto Rico is different it seems that he is much bigger, heavier and much stronger compared to his previous opponents. Well, Pacquiao is Pacquiao and considered to be People's champ.
This is the reason why I am excited to watch the Pacquiao vs. Cotto fight live online or even on delayed broadcast on television.
Are you looking for a site where you can watch the Mayweather vs. Marquez Number One vs. Numero Uno boxing event this coming Saturday at Sept. 19 at 9PM ET? Well look no more, you can find it to the following website that offers free online streaming (i think) so visit their website now featuring Floyd Mayweather, Jr. and Juan Manuel Marquez:
The said event will be aired live directly from Las Vegas, Nevada and it is expected to be one of the most talked about fight of the year as it is the come back fight of Mayweather and a chance for Marquez to redeem himself be worth to fight once more with Pacquiao or even make a record that is more than the latter.
The Pacquiao vs. Cotto fight this November 14 and its all set. HBO already posted on their website the official announcement of the popular movie and sports channel in the US. Here's an excerpt of the article of the said HBO article:
This week's official announcement of the Manny Pacquiao vs. Miguel Cotto fight scheduled for November 14 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas brings with it a wave of excitement for fight fans. The diminutive Pacquiao, boxing's acknowledged pound-for-pound king, will move north in weight once again to fight Cotto, the current WBO welterweight champ, at an agreed-upon catch-weight of 145 pounds.

Its one week before the Pacquiao and Hatton boxing match before their paws meet each other on the ring. I am one of those fans who really love to watch it live. I have several ways in mind that I will do to watch it. One is I am planning to watch it online through this link: watch Pacquiao vs Hatton online, however I am not sure if this site will really show the said online streaming video of the live fight. That is why my second option will be to watch it on a coffee shop or in theaters that offers a wide screen live coverage of the fight for a fee.
The worst case option that I can do to watch the said match, Pacquiao vs Hatton will be to wait for it replayed on the official media partner of the said fight in the Philippines which is the GMA or I will just listen to the radio broadcast of the fight where the announcer will announce every single of move of the fight, blow by blow. Oh my I am really excited now and on my next post, I will discuss about "eriuqs spires healthy recreation" which is relevant to my different tasks to do for the coming days. I will just wait for the fight to finish before focusing on this one.
It is the talk of the town today. Will Pacquiao, the reigning pound for pound champion who beats the crap out of De La Hoya will fight the Welterweight champion Ricky Hatton? Will it be England or Las Vegas, Nevada again? It is still a question that you will find post all over the web today because the negotiations between the two of them to fight in the ring are still going on. As part of the negotiations is the place where will be the fight will be placed. Speculations are spreading that Hatton wishest to fight with Pacquiao in England. One consideration why that will be the best place for them to fight is because of the number of people that can watch on the place. According to the news, an estimate of 90K can be handled by the venue recommended by Golden Promotions.
Another reason why this fight, Pacquiao vs Hatton is still not finalized, is because they were not yet settled with the division of the earnings for the said event. Pacquiao camps asked for a 60-40 sharing of profits but Bob Aron and Golden Promotions plus the camp of Ricky Hatton are not taking the deal because they want a 50-50 divisions. Oh well, if the fog of negotiations settled and everything will be cleared, possible date for the fight Pacquiao vs Hatton will be on May this year. I will definitely watch this fight as the way I fight the previous fights.
