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.
These fighters, Manny Pacquiao, Miguel Cotto, Floyd Mayweather and Juan Marquez are excelling on their fields on their own time. People from different countries are claiming the number one title and everyone recognize each of them. Currently the highest paid and current holder of the pound for pound kingship is Manny "Pacman" Pacquiao of the Philippines. Its a title that he have proven to be true by beating several fighters that are best on their weights. Miguel Cotto also have a current title that he defended well on his previous fight with Clottey, now challenged by Pacquiao. That's the reason for Pacquiao vs. Cotto fight this coming November. Both fighters have a chance to be someone. Pacquiao when he beats Cotto will have a record breaking achievement while Cotto if he beats Pacquiao will be the Puerto Rican that beats the Filipino pound for pound king and he will definitely written to the boxing history.
On the other hand, Mayweather of US is claiming that he is still the number one pound for pound fighter in the west and the whole world. He is still doesn't have any professional career defeats and come back to the boxing light when someone claims his throne. That's why Marquez received a challenge from him to be his come back match on Sept. 19. The Mayweather vs. Marquez is undeniably to be expected and the outcome will make their lives quite different. Who will be proved wrong and right, only the ring of the bell and the judges scores plus their punches will say it all.
So watch for their fights soon, very soon!

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.
How the Hatton vs Pacquiao match? Currently they have done with the deal and ended the first leg of the promotions of the said fight. Pacquiao visited England, territory of Ricky Hatton to promote the said fight. He was warmly welcome by the English fans and he's really pleased about this. Currently Pacman started his training in US to prepare for this much awaited fight between great fighters. Pacquiao also give up his WBC light weight belt to giveway to a higher weight title. According to his coach Freddie Roach, their team already cracked how Pacquiao will definitely beat Hatton and of course the other camp also told the press they have their strategies during the fight that they are hiding on their sleeves.
It seems that this fight will be the last fight for Manny as he shows some sign of retiring and entering politics in the Philippines. In my opinion, I rather seem him boxing and fighting rather than participate in a very "dirty" politics that might stain his reputation. But of course that is me, I think Pacman have his reasons. What I am hoping is that I hope that he will not get beaten on this last fight because it is really bad if you will retire because you lost. For more updates about this fight, you could visit the SEO Consultant's blog who monitors this fight for quite so long now. :)
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.
After the Cebu Seo Contest, all I am waiting for today is the battle between two legends in boxing. Pacquiao vs Dela Hoya fight will be coming this December 2008 and everybody are doing all the preparation for this event of the year. There are so many speculations and predictions about the outcome of this boxing event. Some of them said that Pacquiao will surely be beaten into pulp by Dela Hoya but others saying that this will be one of the nightmare of Dela Hoya. I am really excited for this to happen and if it does I will be the number one who will stand-up and cheer for Manny Pacquiao. I know that Dela Hoya has a built advantage but still I believe that Pacquiao will make something to surpass this advantage and he will show it to the whole world how great he is.
Pacquiao vs Dela Hoya is really a fight of the year and a boxing history in a making.
