Pacquiao and promotor Bob Arum met for two hours Friday to discuss the proposed deal, according to Pacquiao adviser Michael Koncz, who told The Associated Press that “Manny has some additional requirements, requests, which Arum didn’t think was a problem.
Roy Jones was named boxer of the decade in the 90’s. Now we should call him chump of the decade after the pummeling he got above from Danny Green.
OUCH!

Ask De la Hoya... You don't want it with Pacman
Yeah I said it…. I used to love the hype Floyd, real talk you were my favorite fighter since Tyson man. The Oscar fight when you wore the Mexican flag colors on your shorts, you brought the chicken out at the conference, that was classic. When you fought against Hatton I was at a bar in Manhattan and everyone was cheering for Ricky. On TV all you can hear were the chants from English supporters and the waving of the Union Jack. I was tight over that, we were in “our” country and America wasnt representing. Then you came out to Bruce fucking Springsteen, lip synching his Born in the USA lyrics before proceeding to whoop his ass.

One for the ages
It was 12 rounds of boxing last night at the MGM Grand, something Filipino fighter Manny Pacquiao isn’t familiar with after his previous two fights. The result however was the same, a victory securing the WBO welterweight belt for his seventh title in seven different weight classes. His combination of power and speed was too much for Puerto Rican Miguel Cotto who proved to be one of Pacquiao’s best challenges.
“I didn’t know from where the punches were coming,” a bloody Cotto said after last nights bout.
I'm out for the count... the deadly Justene Jaro
Justene Jaro is a model of duel heritages, like tonights boxers she is of Filipino and Puerto Rican descent.
