MANNY "Pacman" PACQUIAO vs JOSHUA "the Hitter" CLOTTEY


Manny Pacquiao and Joshua Clottey, were all smiles as they standing under the world's largest high-definition television and surrounded by Dallas Cowboys cheerleaders during the announcement of their coming Welterweight fight on Tuesday, 13 March 2010 at the Dallas Cowboys Stadium.

As we all knew that the Pacquiao vs Mayweather fight did not materialized, as both camp have different stand regarding urine and blood testing. And also not to mentioned, too much money and pride involved for the said fight not to happen.

The scheduled March 13 bout will be the first boxing match at the $12 billion Cowboys Stadium. "This is going to be the Super Bowl of Boxing," said Freddie Roach, Pacman's trainer.

Not really. What we really hoped-for is the match up between Manny "Pacman" Pacquiao and Floyd "Money" Mayweather Jr., the kind of match that we can really labeled as the "Super Bowl of Boxing".

But as the Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said, " We're going to make this one of the most interesting fights to view that there's ever been."

Manny "Pacman" Pacquiao (50-3-2, 38 KOs) from the Philippines is widely considered as the #1 pound-for-pound and voted as the best fighter in the world, against Joshua "the Hitter" Clottey (35-3-0, 25 KOs) from Accra, Ghanna and resides in New York. Last November fight, Pacquiao beat Miguel Cotto, who happens to beat Clottey in a split decision.

So, let's cross our fingers and hope for a pretty good fight. =)
