Pacquiao - Margarito Set?

   Will it be Manny Pacquiao vs, Antonio Margarito at super welterweight on Nov. 13 this year? Looks like it will be if Margarito can provide his license to fight again at Las Vegas, But alternate location will be at Monterey, Mexico. Top Rank promoter Bob Arum said that Manny have already beaten Miguel Cotto last year so a fight against Margarito would be more lucrative. Arum also added that he's already working on the negotiations and will try to finalize it all this week. The WBC super welterweight belt vacated by Sergio Martinez will be at stake.



(The Blogger Says: This is what I am really praying for besides the Pac-May! I think their style will compliment each other and Margarito's size advantage will surely leash out the best in Pacquiao.)

Pacquiao - Mayweather Megafight Officially Off

   As for the 78-year old Top Rank boss Bob Arum, the fight that all boxing fans dying to see will have to wait for at least up to May 2011 as Floyd Mayweather's camp failed to beat the deadline Arum gave him.

   One speculated reason why Mayweather failed to sign the deal is because is uncle and trainer Roger Mayweather will go on trial in Las Vegas after he assaulted a female boxer he trains. As for Manny Pacquiao, his promoter Arum will start negotiating with either Miguel Cotto or Antonio Margarito next week, depending on who Pacquiao prefers to fight.




The Blogger Says: I think this fight won't happen anytime soon. Unless, Manny Pacquiao suddenly retires and if Floyd is still active after a year or two, I'm pretty sure that Floyd will call him out or, if Manny gets worn out by fighting all of top contenders out there except Floyd. Better luck next time, Bob!
