Manny Pacquiao's WIN - One of the Most Stunning Upset in BOXING history
With all so the so called boxing's best analyst, the surprised came in just at the start of the round 2... Manny Pacquiao dictated and given a hint for what he is about to do at the end of 8 rounds of pure domination boxing fans have ever witnessed. "Manny Pacquiao is INHUMAN" does a well known boxing forum commentator said... He added: "I am a big fan of Floyd Mayweather and I expected Oscar to knockout Manny Pacquiao within 5 rounds. I thought this fight is a mismatch due to Oscar De la Hoya's reach and height advantage... I had been watching Oscar and Floyd Mayweather Jr. fight... And I have never seen anyone dominated the fight, whats surprising is this little guy ( Manny Pacquiao ) had started as a pro at 106 and had won against a legit boxer at Welterweight division... I think Manny Pacquiao surpasses Floyd Mayweather's achievement by winning this fight ( The Dream Match )..."
Oscar enters the ring as a heavy favorite, and almost all boxing analyst had thought the fight is going to be a mismatch.. They all have thought Oscar's height and strength plays big role, plus Oscar De la Hoya is an intelligent fighter. He is a scientific type of a boxer. No one wanted to predict a win for Manny Pacquiao... Even boxers like Bernard Hopkins, Shane Mosely, Mike Tyson, Roy Jones Jr, Juan Manuel Marquez, etc, had all predicted a KO win for Oscar... Except one... Edwin Valero, Valero had predicted a KO win for Manny Pacquiao. He is one who knows better.
While every body thought Oscar will win, asking Oscar if he surprised: "He's a great fighter. I'm not shocked because at this stage when you face someone like Pacquiao you know you're going to have a fight."
Nacho seems to be more surprised of what he had seen. He said:
"Oscar was in good condition but he couldn't control Manny's southpaw stance or style." I had stoped the fight because I dont want his ( Oscar De la Hoya ) greatness inside the ring.
With the fight already done... Boxing fans were now up to making another sounds...
Who is next for Manny Pacquiao? Boxing fans around the PPV community were building somewhat a "Fantasy Boxing Matches" for Pacquiao... People were suggesting names such as:
Ricky Hatton
Miguel Cotto
Antonio Margarito
Floyd Mayweather Jr.
Zab Judah

Ivan Calderon played Oscar at Sparring
The five foot champion Ivan Calderon ( 108 lbs champion since August of 2007 up to date) plays his playful tricks and made Oscar look old at Big Bear, California.
Calderon, the WBO Light Flyweight champion, most of 5'11" Oscar's punches landed at air And Calderon even nailed Oscar with his power shots.
According to Calderon:
"I sparred with him for three of four rounds, and the truth is I made him uncomfortable. I gave him problems, but maybe he appeared like that because timing was not there yet... He Tried to hit me, but maybe he just didn't want to injure me... They shouldn't pay attention to this because Pacquiao's style is to come forward and my style is different. I move side to side and that makes me very difficult to hit. If Oscar wins be descission, it's as if he lost (making point that Oscar should KO Pacquiao). All Oscar needs to do is not to go inside too much, and use his jab to set up his punches... On the other hand Pacquiao ( if Pacquiao wanted to win) needs to move side to side and use his quicker hands. Pacquiao needs to attack the body because its going to be hard for him to hit Oscar's face..." ( El Nuevo Dia )
Last week, Roach's confidence is constantly getting higher that Pacquiao would beat Oscar. He says Oscar dont have what it takes to beat his boxer(Pacquiao) who ever Oscar's trainer is.
Mean while Pacquiao excitedly wears his new "Pacman Shoes" for his training. He says he should wear it to get used to its fit as he trains hard. He wanted to test his new shoes if it feels comfortable and soft when he fights "The Golden Boy"...
Updates on Manny Pacquiao vs Oscar "The Golden Boy" De la Hoya...

Jermain "Bad Intentions" Taylor vs Jeff Lacy
IT'S BUSINESS, NOT PERSONAL
A true buddy and a pal in 2000 Olympics boxing team that never dreamed that they would face each other in their future lined their careers on one path and would have to fight each other this coming November 15, 2008.In the ring, however, Taylor's slick and superior boxing challenged Lacy's, coming away with a bronze medal, while Lacy was eliminated in the quarterfinals after winning his two first-round bouts. As for the knockout competition, it was a draw. Both knocked out just one opponent. Even their sparring was a contest, one apparently blurred by memory or pride.
Lacy's former promoter, Gary Shaw, knew that and was careful to keep matching him up with fighters who didn't move around a lot. The formula worked well for the first five title fights Lacy had and won, but then a deal came down the pike that Shaw couldn't turn down. "It wasn't the best matchup for Jeff, but you couldn't ignore the money," Shaw said. The fighter was Calzaghe, and he is one of the slickest in the game. Calzaghe won all 12 rounds, and Lacy has not looked the same since.
The Taylor camp has done its homework, and Nelson has no intention of playing into the heavy-handed Lacy's game. "I want Jermain to dictate the pace. We don't want to let Lacy plant his feet and get comfortable. I want him to box Jeff, move and pivot and frustrate him," Nelson said.
Jermain became very well known after destroying Bernard Hopkins twice at Middleweight Division.. And have a big set back after Kelly Pavlik did same thing to him.
What do you think?

Joe "the Super Joe" Calzaghe wins over Roy Jones Jr
I may think Joe Calzaghe is one of the under estimated boxers today... And or Roy Jones Jr is and over rated old guy.
I have started viewing the fight at round 6 to round 12.
And here is how I have scored the fight.
As I heard the commentators say: We got 3 dead even rounds for each fighter!
Round 6
Joe coming forward as Roy tries to counter Joe's massive attacks. It was a close to call round, but, I think Joe Calzaghe won this round by his number of punches landed.
Calzaghe 10-9
Round 7
Roy is still waiting for the opportunity to land a one big punch. But a left straight from Calzaghe landed clearly on Roy's eye brow. Roy has a earned a cut on his left eye brow. A 2 inch cut is severely bleeding. Calzaghe poured punches trying to finish Roy as the bell rang. Jones is still standing.
Calzaghe 10-9
Round 8
"Joe leading comfortably after six rounds," says the Observer's Kevin Mitchell at ringside. "Five rounds to one, through sheer volume of punches, after coming through nasty first-round knockdown, which he dropped 10-8. Pace relentless. Calzaghe super confident and Jones bemused by number and quality of Joe's combinations." That's the ringside view. Meanwhile Jones has been shaken by that cut. He looks a mess with blood gushing from his eye. Calzaghe is like a predator playing with his injured prey. Jones can't see and Calzaghe continues to pound him with a relentless stream of shots. Jones Jr bats him off with an uppercut but Calzaghe forces Jones to cling on until the bell. The doctor has got much work to do to clean Jones Jr's cut up so he can continue.
Calzaghe 10-9
Round 9
There's a delay as Jones Jr's cut is worked on. A repl,ay from the last round shows a left hand from Calzaghe tearing across the cut. It's enough to make me wince never mind Jones. The American dances around and manages to limit the damage in the early exchanges in this round. Calzaghe seems content to hold off and wait for an opportunity to connect. He goads Jones - somewhat disrespectfully I feel - by sticking his chin out at the bloodied Jones, who thankfully gives Calzaghe a jab to the mush. Calzaghe has it on points now and only has to see this one home. Jones has to do something special through one eye.
Calzaghe 10-9
Round 10
Joe comes out throwing a couple of body shots. Roy lands a decent uppercut in the corner to get himself back to the center of the ring. Jones backing Calzaghe up again and Joe counters to the body. Roy with a weak 1-2, head and body. Joe looks wide open but Roy can't land to the chin, unbelievable. Roy with a straight right, left hook, hook was blocked. Calzaghe double and triples the jab then goes into 4-punch hook straight combo. Roy lands a good right to the chest, Calzaghe ends with a weak slow flurry.
Calzaghe 10-9
Round 11
Roy leads with a triple jab that wasn't meant to land. Joe lands a good jab to the chin. Calzaghe backing Roy up once again with pressure. Roy making a stand in the center of the ring and pushin himself forward and starting to back up Calzaghe but still not landing much. Calzaghe with a little triple jab to the body, all landing. Calzaghe showboats as he feels Royisn't doing anything. Roy lands a hard right that snaps Joe's head back but not hurting him at all. Calzaghe with a good right uppercut from too far away, but it still lands. Calzaghe slowing down from his own work rate. Roy can't figure him out and can't land.
Calzaghe 10-9
Round 12
Touch gloves, Roy with newfound respect puts his hands on Joe's shoulders. Roy looking aggressive in his stance , Joe circling away. Joe throws a good jab and Roy misses a straight right. Roy throws a huge knockout right that hits air as Calzaghe ducks. Calzaghe posturing, getting low and bob and weaving. Roy to the ropes and Calzaghe blasts the body. Roy throwing nothing at the moment. There's a standing ovation as these two legends of boxing, who may never fight again, touch gloves for the final round. It's been a gruelling fight and a great spectacle. Calzaghe crouches low and invites Jones onto him. With his trademark lunge Jones almost dizzies Calzaghe with a crashing right which just grazes his ear. Calzaghe skips on the spot to prove how much he has left, but in my opinion he should try to down Jones with his energy instead. Like a bloodied warrior Jones has one final lunge at Calzaghe which misses and as the bell sounds the two fighters embrace.
Calzaghe 10-9

Roy Jones Jr vs Joe Calzaghe - PREDICTIONS
Roy only had problems with fighters that can hurt him. He tends to be too concern gettin hit with power punches of REAL PUNCHERS making Roy's output less. But I think Calzaghe is not a power puncher and Jones will enter the ring full of confidence (unlike when he fought Antonio Tarver).
Good round 3-4 for Roy Jones and then a victory for Roy on round 5 via KO/TKO...

Bernard Hopkins vs Roy Jones Jr. ( part 2)
Other Prediction on Calzaghe - Jones by Fighters/ Boxers and Sports Writers
Bernard Hopkins- Former two-division world champion - Jones W 12
"Jones by unanimous decision based on his speed and power."
Ricky Hatton- IBO & Ring Magazine junior welterweight world champion
"Roy has seen better days and I think that Joe will be too fast for Roy. Joe will outbox Roy and win by points. I'm going with Joe."
Lennox Lewis- Former heavyweight champion
"Jones has unbelievable speed and Calzaghe's never fought anyone like him. Jones likes it when his opponent comes to him and unfortunately for Calzaghe, that's exactly what he does; comes to his opponent and is right in their face. I pick Jones on points, but I think it'll be a very close fight."
Oscar De La Hoya- Olympic gold medalist and 10-time world champion
"Calzaghe will beat Jones by a unanimous decision. Joe is going to close the door on Roy's boxing career."
Manny Pacquiao- Ring Magazine pound-for-pound champion
"Calzaghe by decision. Joe is hungrier and a little younger."
Shane Mosley- Former lightweight, welterweight and junior middleweight champion of the world
"Roy has trouble with southpaws and Calzaghe is a great southpaw. Roy is a fighter that is always on his toes and I think that when Hopkins fought Calzaghe, and was moving a lot, it gave Joe a lot of problems. I think Roy can do the same thing. I think he can cause problems for Joe with his speed. I'm not really sure on Roy right now. I have to lean towards Joe on this one. You can't count Roy out, but I think Joe will get Roy with a lot of combinations and out point him. Roy back in the day would have destroyed Joe, but now Joe will outpoint him with a lot of activity and win the fight."
Paulie Malignaggi- Former IBF junior welterweight champion.
"It's a hard fight to pick. I thought Calzaghe at first because, but maybe he's too much for Roy right now. But based on what Joe just said about the three Brits beating the three Americans (Calzaghe-Jones, Hatton-Malignaggi, Haye-Barrett), I'm pulling Roy home.....Jones by decision."
WRITERS: Chris Mannix- Sports Illustrated - Calzaghe W 12
"Jones has done an incredible job resurrecting his career, but he hasn't faced a fighter of Calzaghe's caliber (sorry, Anthony Hanshaw fans) since he was slapped around by Antonio Tarver three years ago. Slapping may be the only thing the light hitting Calzaghe will do to Jones, but his superior hand speed will be more than enough to score a unanimous decision."
John Falgoust- USA Today - Calzaghe TKO Late
"Calzaghe in late stoppage. Usually counter punchers like Antonio Tarver, Eric Harding and Montell Griffin give Roy Jones trouble. Not aggressors. But this isn't the same Roy Jones. Calzaghe's work rate alone should do the trick here. Make Jones fight three minutes of every round and don't allow him to rest on the ropes or clown to kill the clock. It'll open up Calzaghe to get caught in between his flurries, such as when Bernard Hopkins dropped him with a counterpunch, but fortunately for him Jones isn't a finisher."
Dan Rafael- ESPN.com - Jones W 12
"Although Calzaghe is the favorite, I think Jones' style and speed -- he's still fast -- are going to give him problems. I think it will be a tough, close fight but I'm going with the upset special. I like Jones to pull it out on a close decision."
Kevin Iole- Yahoo.com - Calzaghe W 12
"Calzaghe will win in 12 rounds. If this fight had happened five years ago, it would be a different story. But Jones is a shell of the fighter he used to be and Calzaghe is simply too busy for Jones now. I expect Calzaghe to outwork Jones and pull out a clear decision."
Tim Smith- New York Daily News - Jones W 12
"Roy Jones has good power and I think that will offset the volume of punches that Calzaghe throws. Calzaghe has a good chin so I don't see him getting knocked out. I like Jones in a decision."
Alan Hubbard- Independent on Sunday - Calzaghe W 12
"Calazghe should scrape a narrow points verdict, possibly another spilt decision, a la Bernard Hopkins, in an untidy fight. Jones may no longer have the residual firepower to hurt or harass him but Calzaghe has surely been distracted by the legal wrangling following his split from long-time UK promoter Frank Warren and the concerns of co-promoting this fight. He has struggled to repeat punch-perfect form he attained against Jeff Lacy, but is wily and resilient enough to keep Jones at a southpaw arm's length. He is already established as Britain's most enduring post world war champion and victory over Jones would cement his deserved claim to be the outstanding British fighter of the modern era."
Bobby Cassidy- Newsday - Jones TKO 11
"I like Roy Jones in the 11th round TKO. Calzaghe does not have the power to keep Jones honest. I think by the second half of the fight Jones will be picking him a part. Calzaghe looked so good against Hopkins because Hopkins didn't have the firepower to slow him down. But Jones has both speed and power. In other fights, Calzaghe has been able to adjust to one of those assets; he won't be able to adjust to both, especially from a fighter like Jones."
I still say its got to be a round 5 victory for Roy Jones Jr via TKO/KO!
Good round 3-4 for Roy Jones and then a victory for Roy on round 5 via KO/TKO...

It'll open up Calzaghe to get caught in between his flurries, such as when Bernard Hopkins dropped him with a counterpunch, but fortunately for him Jones isn't a finisher."
Dan Rafael- ESPN.com - Jones W 12
"Although Calzaghe is the favorite, I think Jones' style and speed -- he's still fast -- are going to give him problems. I think it will be a tough, close fight but I'm going with the upset special. I like Jones to pull it out on a close decision."
Kevin Iole- Yahoo.com - Calzaghe W 12
"Calzaghe will win in 12 rounds. If this fight had happened five years ago, it would be a different story. But Jones is a shell of the fighter he used to be and Calzaghe is simply too busy for Jones now. I expect Calzaghe to outwork Jones and pull out a clear decision."
Tim Smith- New York Daily News - Jones W 12
"Roy Jones has good power and I think that will offset the volume of punches that Calzaghe throws. Calzaghe has a good chin so I don't see him getting knocked out. I like Jones in a decision."
Alan Hubbard- Independent on Sunday - Calzaghe W 12
"Calazghe should scrape a narrow points verdict, possibly another spilt decision, a la Bernard Hopkins, in an untidy fight. Jones may no longer have the residual firepower to hurt or harass him but Calzaghe has surely been distracted by the legal wrangling following his split from long-time UK promoter Frank Warren and the concerns of co-promoting this fight. He has struggled to repeat punch-perfect form he attained against Jeff Lacy, but is wily and resilient enough to keep Jones at a southpaw arm's length. He is already established as Britain's most enduring post world war champion and victory over Jones would cement his deserved claim to be the outstanding British fighter of the modern era."
Bobby Cassidy- Newsday - Jones TKO 11
"I like Roy Jones in the 11th round TKO. Calzaghe does not have the power to keep Jones honest. I think by the second half of the fight Jones will be picking him a part. Calzaghe looked so good against Hopkins because Hopkins didn't have the firepower to slow him down. But Jones has both speed and power. In other fights, Calzaghe has been able to adjust to one of those assets; he won't be able to adjust to both, especially from a fighter like Jones."
I still say its got to be a round 5 victory for Roy Jones Jr via TKO/KO!

the Under Dog Legend just simply won!
Bernard Hopkins did not looked like 43 yrs old having an unlikely easy win over Kelly "the Ghost" Pavlik. IS THIS A EXTRA ORDINARY BERNARD HOPKINS?
To describe the fight... is a 12 to nothing round in favor of the old guy who displays pure genius and gifted skills... Bernard Hopkins who were doubt by the world of having a chance to win over a powerful puncher Kelly Pavlik were angry at the end of the fight (well I just hope its not a race issue) and exhibits how it is toying a heavy favorite Kelly that jumps up form Middle Weight to Light Heavy Weight division resulting to his first lost.
Many of the readers may appeal: Hey! Pavlik won the round 11!... So? I think not! He didnt won a single round! I watched the whole fight and I even bet 10 bucks for Pavlik to win at round 5. And I was one of those people who wer stunned watching the ending of the fight... And I personally scored it 120-107 win for B-Hop! And why 107? Kelly was deducted a point at round 8 for punching B-Hop at the back of his head repeatedly!
This not the first time people puts doubt and understimated Bernard Hopkins! June 10, 2006... B-Hop fought another powerful puncher and a trash talker that knocked out Roy Jones Jr named Antonio Tarver. Bernard was called a crazy man calling Tarver for a match at Light HeavyWeight division. Almost all asumed and feared for B-Hop's health facing Tarver and no one believes B-Hop could even retire as a healthy person after Tarver-Hopkins fight. But every ones shock, the under dog B-Hop wins round after round, he even knocked down Tarver at round 6. One of the judges scored 119-109 in favor of B-Hop!
Bernard's record:
49 Wins, 5 Losses, 1 Draw, 1 No-contest, 32 Knockouts
Yes he does have losses, but the weight of his achievements is FAR FAR better than those who have perfect records!
So whose next?

Mosely Koed Mayorga via Dramatic Clutch Punches
The Bull was punished by Sugar......
This is how I would describe the fight during the late rounds after round 5. At the earlier rounds, Ricardo Mayorga looks better than before, having better defense and better punching ability than before while Mosley give no hints of what he is planning. Showing less punches and less power than he used to be. Generally I think the two fighters fought strange. Its not the typical Mayorga neither Shane Mosley way to start a fight. Mayorga is better and Suger is not. Well, its just the first half of the fight...
"Mayorga took some good shots early but I felt I could take him down later. He fought a good fight," Mosley said. "I could feel him getting weaker. I knew I had the fight won (in 12th round), but I wanted to go for the knockout because that's what the fans wanted."
The victory, combined with his impressive performance in a tight loss to Miguel Cotto last year sets Mosley (45-5, 38 KOs) up for a number of big fights in the welterweight division. Mosley is hoping to get a shot at fighting Cotto-conqueror Antonio Margarito, the current poster boy at 147 pounds. Failing that, other attractive options include a rematch with Cotto and fights with Paul Williams, Joshua Clottey and perhaps unbeaten Andre Berto, who successfully defended his belt against wily veteran Steve Forbes in the opening fight on the card.
Round1
Mayorga jabbing. Mosley coming forward. That's a surprise. Mayorga throws an overhand right, then comes up with an uppercut. Mayorga rakes to the body with a digging blow.

When PACMAN meets Oscar De la Hoya
Yes it is! Their fight will be titled "Its Personal" after Pacquiao's coach called it a knock out in favor of PACMAN over The Golden Boy.... It is a WOW! How can someone thinks that they will make a fight between a fighter that has fought a "Middle Weight Division" Champion Bernard Hopkins( Oscar DelaHoya) and a fighter that started as a pro at 106 lbs(Manny Pacquiao)?!?!
Emannuel "PACMAN" Pacquiao whose record is "46-3-2 | 35 KOs" and has been tagged by many as "The Mexicutioner" will fight another great Mexican, Olympian, Former World Champion, one of the greatest P4P boxer in the world, The Golden Boy Oscar DelaHoya whose record is 39-4 | 30KOs.
Lets see if we can have a hint on what might happened on the incredible boxing fight. Can David once again defeat Goliath? Manny Pacquiao is considered Best Pound for Pound boxer in the world today has been known to jump from weight division to another weight division from 106lbs to 135lbs(current weight) will fight at a Big guy at 147lbs. The Big Guy is no ordinary big guy. The Big guy is Oscar De La Hoya!
OSCAR DE LA HOYA
Wins 7 or his last fights over Huge fighters up to Middle Wieght Division
includes
Steve Forbes, Ricardo Mayorga, Felix Sturm, Luis Ramon Campas,Fernando Vargas, Arthuro Gatti
and give both Floyd Mayweather and Bernard Hopkins a very GoOD Match
A superstar whose popularity transcends boxing, Oscar De La Hoya is considered to be one of the best fighters in the world at any weight - "Pound-for-Pound." He is also the biggest non-heavyweight attraction and moneymaker at the gate, defeating 18 current or former world champions, one twice, in the process.
Oscar has been successful at the highest levels of competition, and has beaten current or former world champions Ricardo Mayorga, Felix Sturm, Fernando Vargas, Pernell Whitaker, Arturo Gatti, Ike Quartey, Julio Cesar Chavez twice, Hector Camacho, Miguel Angel Gonzalez, James Leija, Genaro Hernandez, Rafael Ruelas, John John Molina, Jorge Paez, Javier Francisco Castillejo, Yory Boy Campas, Jimmi Bredahl and Troy Dorsey.
Oscar also fought undisputed world middleweight champion Bernard Hopkins in a title unification bout on September 18, 2004, and after a close battle, Hopkins stopped De La Hoya in the ninth round. Oscar lost no prestige in defeat though, gaining the respect of Hopkins and the boxing community for his continued willingness to fight the best.
Oscar had won the WBO middleweight world title on June 5, 2004 with a 12-round unanimous decision against defending champion Felix Sturm of Germany. His previous fight was a controversial decision loss against Shane Mosley - the vast majority of people who watched the fight, some 75 % according to various internet polls, thought Oscar deserved to win. Regarding that fight, Oscar said, "When I fought Mosley the first time around, I felt like I lost, that he got me that night. With this fight, I just don't feel that way. I don't want to blame anyone or point fingers, but that will be a mystery to me for the rest of my life. I put it in its proper place. I'm moving forward. After talking with my family and my wife, I feel wonderful. I feel like the champ. My body and my mind feel great. I feel fresh. I feel at ease.
MANNY PACQUIAO
Manny Pacquiao
At the age of 26, Manny is a ten-year pro - he made his debut at the age of 16. A former two-time world champion, he won the WBC flyweight world title two weeks before his 20th birthday in December, 1998, and held the title for nearly a year. He held the IBF jr. featherweight world title from June, 2001, until he vacated it on January 15, 2004, to move up to the featherweight division.
An aggressive lefthanded slugger, Manny is recognized as one of the hardest punchers at any weight. He is 14-1-2 in his last 17 fights, with all 14 wins coming by knockout. In his last fight on September 10, he TKO'd Hector Velazquez in the sixth round.
Manny has been fighting at the top levels of competition, and has been in several of the most exciting fights of recent years.
Graham Houston wrote in Boxing Monthly, "Quite simply, Pacquiao is one of the hottest fighters in the business. There is a saying in American boxing: 'Speed kills.' When that speed is accompanied by power, it is truly a formidable combination - and Pacquiao has it."
On March 19, he lost a very close decision in a tremendous battle against Erik Morales. Manny fought to a 12-round draw on May 8, 2004, against Juan Manuel Marquez in a fight many observers considered to be the "Fight of the Year."
In November, 2003, he scored a devastating TKO win against former three-time world champion Marco Antonio Barrera. After the fight, HBO boxing analyst Larry Merchant said, "This is a fight that will shake up the boxing world. Long live the new king."
Boxing columnist Michael Katz wrote, "He is on the cusp of becoming perhaps the greatest Asian fighter to conquer the West since Genghis Khan."
Manny is a national hero in the Philippines - when he returns home after his fights, he is greeted by thousands of his cheering countrymen.
Among his fans is Philippines President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo. She said, "The victory of Pacquiao is a victory of the more than 76 million Filipinos, and the entire nation joins him in celebrating."
