blue_blooded Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 Prediction ko: Panalo si Pacman..sa banko..darating si Morales na overweight at madadagdagn ng $ 1,000,000 ang purse ni Pacquiao. Pag overweight si Morales, mahihirapan siyang patumbahin ni Pacquiao at mahihirapan din si Pacman na tumanggap ng suntok ni Morales dahil malamang nasa 10 lbs. ang diperensiya sa timbang pagdating ng laban. Kahit na anong resulta, buo pa din ang alamat ni Pacquiao sa mata ng mga nanonood at ng mga eksperto. Sunod na ang laban niya kay Barrera kahit na anong mangyari sa laban nila ni Rocky Juarez. Tapos 2-3 laban pa siguro bago mag isip na mag retiro si Pacquiao. At least tig isa si Juan MIguel Marquez at si Juarez kung manalo si Juarez kay Barrera. Quote Link to comment

greenarrow Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 De La Hoya confirms 7-fight deal with Pacquiao InquirerLast updated 01:03am (Mla time) 09/27/2006 Published on Page A27 of the September 27, 2006 issue of the Philippine Daily Inquirer THE GUESSING game is over. Oscar De La Hoya, the world’s most charismatic boxer-cum-promoter, has finally confirmed that he has signed a seven-fight deal with Filipino ring icon Manny Pacquiao. The hitherto secret pact immediately drew furious catcalls and a threat of legal action from Top Rank chief Bob Arum, the powerful promoter of Pacquiao’s final fight with Mexico’s Erik Morales. De la Hoya revealed in an exclusive interview with ESPN.com’s Dan Rafael that, indeed, Pacquiao is now under his promotional outfit, Golden Boy Promotions. Angry Arum “Yes, we have signed Manny Pacquiao,” De La Hoya told Rafael, who first broke the news in an earlier report. “Manny wants to finish his career with us. It puts a smile on my face because he trusts us. He is putting his career in our hands. It says a lot about our company.” Rival promoter Arum was furious over the development. Arum said the De La Hoya contract violated a stipulation in his separate agreement with Pacquiao which bars the Filipino hero from signing a promotional deal before his Nov. 18 fight with Morales in Las Vegas. “Golden Boy has torturously interfered with our contract,” Rafael quoted Arum as saying. “Under the specific language of the contract, they had to wait until after the fight was over to sign [any promotional contract]. “I’m not going to let it slide,” Arum, a man both feared and respected in the world boxing community, told Rafael. “What we do is up to the attorneys. I don’t like my contracts to be violated. Manny’s lawyer [Jeng Gacal] went through my contract with a fine-toothed comb. I negotiated with him and specifically this paragraph.” Arum’s American lawyer, Michael Marley, in a report carried by fightnightnews.com, said there is nothing his client can do about the deal if Pacquiao signs it after the Morales fight. “There is nothing he [Arum] can do about it [contract]... which becomes effective even two minutes after the Morales match,” Michael said. De La Hoya said they merely beat Arum to the draw. “It was basically us out-thinking the competition,” De La Hoya told Rafael. “I had a goal and that goal was to sign Manny Pacquiao. We strategized and we figured it out and we were willing to do whatever it took to sign him.” Airport interception According to De La Hoya, he first met Pacquiao at the airport when the Filipino arrived to begin training for the Morales fight. “Manny looks up to me and I think he can be one of the greatest fighters ever to come out of the Philippines,” De La Hoya said. “We just clicked and we were able to come to an agreement.” De La Hoya said the Filipino superstar requested that the signing be kept a secret until after the fight with Morales because he was worried about retribution from Arum. Pacquiao, according to De La Hoya, was “concerned” that Arum, the judges or the referee might go against him during the Nov. 18 match. “It was Manny’s request to keep it a secret until after the fight, but we talked about it yesterday,” De La Hoya said. “I told him we can’t keep secrets from the media or the boxing world. He understood and I assured him that everything would be OK. De La Hoya said he assured Pacquiao that “everything would be fair” and that they would “make sure it is an even playing field.” Salven L.

blue_blooded Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 Basta huwag lang siya ma distract. At sana huwag din siyang inbenta ng promoter niya. Pinakamadaling solusyon: patulugin niya si Morales. Ganyang ganyan nangyari kay Luisito Espinosa noon. Nag paalam sa America Presents at lilipat na daw siya ng promoter. Payag si America Presents pero sa huling laban niya, itinapat siya ulit kay Cesar Sotto (yung binugbug niya sa Battle of Manila Bay). Tapos ginawa yung laban sa Albaqureque New Mexico, lahat ng crowd Mexicano, lahat ng judges Mexicano pati yung ring announcer at yung coverage in Spanish. Yari si Louie. Ginawang punching bag si Sotto sa 12 rounds pero nung ilabas ang desisyon, saka lang niya nalaman na wala pa siya sa US, nasa Macau pala! Quote Link to comment

greenarrow Posted October 6, 2006 Share Posted October 6, 2006 Morales bares secret how to beat Pacman InquirerLast updated 02:04am (Mla time) 10/07/2006 Published on page A24 of the October 7, 2006 issue of the Philippine Daily Inquirer AFTER playing it mysteriously out in Mexico’s Otami Mountains, Erik Morales yesterday came out in the open to bare he would beat Filipino superstar Manny Pacquiao on Nov. 18 at the Thomas and Mack Center in Las Vegas. The Mexican boxing idol said Pacquiao would be meeting a totally different Morales when they clash for a third time. In an announcement at his own website Thursday, Morales, said people “will see a different El Terrible,” who will show the old form that made him a multi-division world champion. Morales also stressed that, this time, he won’t be having weight problems in his rubber match with Pacquiao. Morales stressed that he will win the fight easily. “This fight is not about the money. This is to prove that I still have it, and I am fighting for Mexico,” Morales declared. In a clear dig at Pacquiao, Morales insisted that the Filipino’s much-ballyhooed left did not hurt him in their second fight which the Filipino won by technical knockout last January to avenge a close but unanimous loss in 2005. Morales added that he runs in the morning and spars in the evening under the watchful eyes of his father, Jose “Olivaritos” Morales. The elder Morales has defied doctors’ orders to stay out of the high-altitude Otomi, due to his diabetes, in order to closely monitor the training of his son. Meanwhile, Pacquiao and Freddie Roach swore they can again beat Morales, although the trainer had reiterated that the Filipino should come into the fight “in the best shape of his life” as Morales will most likely fight like a wounded tiger to regain lost pride. Buboy Fernandez, Pacquiao’s Filipino trainer, said they are closely reviewing tapes of Morales previous fights for a fall-back strategy should the Mexican decide to resort to a hit-and-run tactic the way Marco Antonio Barrera did in winning his last fight. Fernandez said they have a plan B to keep the Mexican from using the ring to his advantage. Pacquiao had to take a day-off due to a little cold, but Roach said there was no need to worry as the Filipino hero was “a little ahead of schedule.” Pacquiao was scheduled to resume sparring yesterday. Roach claimed Pacquiao appeared in terrific shape in his last four-round sparring. Roach also announced for the first time that Pacquiao’s right hook is coming along pretty well, “something Morales will have to watch out for.” http://newsinfo.inq7.net/inquirerheadlines...rticle_id=25284 Quote Link to comment

greenarrow Posted October 9, 2006 Share Posted October 9, 2006 Pacquiao sharpens up, decks big sparmate InquirerLast updated 03:28am (Mla time) 10/09/2006 Published on page A25 of the October 9, 2006 issue of the Philippine Daily Inquirer HERE’S FAIR warning to Erik Morales. Manny Pacquiao already looks a winner. This after the Filipino superstar knocked down his Swedish sparmate, Shadi Hamsho, an unbeaten super featherweight prospect, on Thursday at the Wild Card Gym in Los Angeles where he is revving up for his rubber match with Morales next month. The 5-foot-11 Hamsho, still unbeaten in eight fights, went down after Pacquiao unleashed a series of blows, based on an account by Los Angeles-based correspondent Ed De la Vega of Philboxing.com yesterday. The knockdown, De la Vega reported, was confirmed to him by boxers Bobby Pacquiao, Gerry Peñalosa and Ernel Fontanilla. “Manny knocked down his sparring partner and no one was there to take a picture,” said De la Vega, quoting the three boxers while they were on their way to the Wild Card Gym. Pacquiao, who recently inked a deal with Oscar De la Hoya’s Golden Boy Promotions, reported to the Wild Card Gym a bit ahead of his training schedule last month. The Pacquiao-Golden Boy contract is good for seven fights. The Filipino ring icon reportedly received a $300,000 signing bonus on top of an assurance from De la Hoya himself that, win or lose, on Nov. 18 against Morales, he would be getting a rematch with WBC super featherweight champ Marco Antonio Barrera. The third Pacquiao-Morales fight, dubbed the “Grand Finale,” is scheduled at the Thomas & Mack Center in Las Vegas. The Filipino lost in their first meeting by a close but unanimous decision last year before the Filipino exacted revenge last January with a 10th-round stoppage. Aside from Barrera, Pacquiao’s victim in their first encounter, Golden Boy also promotes or co-promotes other big names in the super feather and lightweight division, such as Jesus Chavez, Joan Guzman, Jorge Barrios, and Juan Manuel Marquez. http://newsinfo.inq7.net/inquirerheadlines...rticle_id=25572 Quote Link to comment
clubber_lang Posted October 9, 2006 Share Posted October 9, 2006 Morales would not put a good fight after four rounds and I see him going down in the 9th. At this stage of his carrer, Morales can no longer keep up with Pacquiao's speed and power. Quote Link to comment
greenarrow Posted October 9, 2006 Share Posted October 9, 2006 Manny says brains to decide ‘Grand Finale’By Joaquin HensonThe Philippine Star 10/08/2006 All other things being equal, Manny Pacquiao said brains will decide the outcome of his rubber match against Erik Morales in the climax of their ring trilogy at the Thomas and Mack Center in Las Vegas on Nov. 18. That’s the word from Pacquiao’s marketing whiz Eric Pineda who shared the fighter’s inner thoughts in a STAR interview yesterday. "Manny expects Morales to be in the best condition of his career for the fight," said Pineda. "And Manny is working hard to be in the best condition of his life, too. So if they’re in the best shape of their lives, what will make the difference is how they use their brains in getting an advantage over the other." Pineda said Pacquiao has a lot of surprises in store for Morales. "Manny has studied Morales’ style carefully and thinks there’s nothing more Morales can show," said Pineda. "On the other hand, Manny is going to show things Morales has never seen before." According to Pacquiao, he’s got 20 new moves to unravel in "The Grand Finale." "He didn’t tell me what those 20 moves are," said Pineda. "But you know Manny, if he says something, he means it. He doesn’t say things just to say things." Pacquiao’s trainer Freddie Roach said his workouts at the Wild Card Gym in Los Angeles are proceeding without a hitch. Roach said Pacquiao is working on more head feints and sharpening up his right hook but wouldn’t reveal what’s being planned for Morales. Pineda said not too many fans realize Pacquiao began working out in General Santos City before he left for the US last Sept. 18. "That’s why when Manny reported for camp in Los Angeles, Freddie was surprised he was in shape," said Pineda. "It’s because in General Santos, all Manny did was run in the morning, work out in the gym for two hours then play basketball for at least another two hours a day." Pacquiao showed up at the Wild Card Gym for his first workout weighing 138 pounds, only eight over the stipulated limit for the fight – an indication that he never let go since the Oscar Larios fight last July. Pineda said fighter Gerry Peñalosa phoned the other day reporting that no one can keep up with Pacquiao in his early morning jogs in Los Angeles. Peñalosa, who joins Pacquiao in the dawn runs, is booked to face a still unnamed opponent on Oct. 21 in El Paso, Texas. "It’s full-steam ahead for Manny in training for Morales," said Pineda. "He knows what’s at stake so he’s not leaving anything to chance." Pineda said Roach is preparing a fight plan to counter a possible strategy where Morales will stick and run like Marco Antonio Barrera did to Rocky Juarez in scoring a dull decision recently. "Morales will try anything to win and survive," said Pineda. "But I don’t think he can do to Manny what Barrera did to Juarez. For one thing, Manny’s a lot faster than Juarez. And he’s a lot smarter." Although Pacquiao is not looking beyond Morales, Pineda said plans are now being laid out by Oscar de la Hoya for the Pacman’s schedule next year. Pacquiao recently signed a seven-fight deal with de la Hoya’s Golden Boy Promotions. Pineda said Pacquiao’s affiliation with de la Hoya brings a dangerous dimension to the Morales fight which is promoted by Golden Boy’s archrival Top Rank. "Morales is promoted by Top Rank and Bob Arum," said Pineda. "With Manny signed to Golden Boy, Top Rank will obviously want Morales to win. In a close fight, I don’t think the judges will give the decision to Manny. That only means for Manny to make sure he wins, he’s got to knock out Morales again. He did it once before so there’s no reason why he can’t do it again." Pineda said there’s a special bond between Pacquiao and de la Hoya because they’re both fighters and they understand each other. "De la Hoya doesn’t want Manny to fight two consecutive hard fights," said Pineda. "He knows how a fighter feels because he’s a fighter himself. De la Hoya plans to space out the big money fights and put in tune-ups in between so Manny doesn’t burn out. Look at what Morales’ promoters did to him. At 30, he’s taken a heavy toll because they kept on giving him hard fights." Pineda said it looks like Pacquiao will take on Barrera in a much-awaited rematch in June or July next year. A tune-up in March, possibly at the new Wynn Hotel and Casino in Macau, is an option. http://www.philstar.com/philstar/NEWS200610091603.htm Quote Link to comment
greenarrow Posted October 9, 2006 Share Posted October 9, 2006 Manny nixes TV shoot with KobeBy Joaquin HensonThe Philippine Star 10/10/2006 To prove he’s serious in training for Erik Morales, Manny Pacquiao turned down a rare chance to shoot a global TV commercial with pro basketball star Kobe Bryant in Los Angeles yesterday. A Team Pacquiao insider said Nike is filming an advertisement showcasing its high-profile stars, including Bryant, LeBron James, Maria Sharapova, Rafael Nadal, Tiger Woods and South Korean soccer star Park Ji Sung of Manchester United. Clips of the athletes will be edited for an institutional commercial. Bryant and Pacquiao were scheduled for shooting in the same Hollywood studio. A lunch date to introduce the Los Angeles Lakers star to Pacquiao was cancelled. "Manny knows what’s at stake in the fight so he’s making sure his focus is 100 percent in the gym,"said the insider. "He’s now in deep training for Morales and that’s why he had to beg off from the shoot." Bryant plays his first National Basketball Association (NBA) preseason game for the Los Angeles Lakers against the Utah Jazz at Fresno State tonight. Pacquiao, who recently signed a two-year endorsement contract with Nike, would’ve been the only boxer in the elite circle. Pacquiao’s contract covers shoes, training equipment (like skipping rope) and gym body-wraps. It does not include apparel as Pacquiao has a live contract with "No Fear" until next year. Pacquiao will pitch for Nike in print ads and billboards. He will also make public appearances. The Nike contract was described by a Team Pacquiao source as "unprecedented" for a Filipino athlete as it was approved in the company’s Portland headquarters. The source said Nike plans to fly Pacquiao to Las Vegas for the NBA All-Star Weekend in February next year as Michael Jordan’s special guest at the launch of the shoe Air Jordan XXII. A meeting with Nike boss Phil Knight may be arranged to formally welcome Pacquiao into the company’s league of superstars. The All-Star Weekend will start off with the opening of the NBA Jam Session at the 350,000 square foot Mandalay Bay Convention Center and end with the All-Star Game at the Thomas and Mack Center on Feb. 18. Roy Jones was the first fighter signed by Nike to an endorsement contract although it was strictly for the Jordan brand. Pacquiao is the first fighter to endorse the Nike brand. When Pacquiao meets Morales in "The Grand Finale" in Las Vegas on Nov. 18, several Nike stars may be at ringside. Woods, for instance, may watch the fight if his schedule permits. "There’s something about a Pacquiao fight that excites the fans," said Manny Pacquiao Promotions vice president for marketing Eric Pineda. "I wouldn’t be surprised if Tiger Woods watches the fight. He’ll be cheering for Manny, of course, since they’re both Nike stars and Tiger is half-Asian. I can’t think of a fight that was more exciting than Manny’s fight against Morales last January and this coming fight will be even more exciting. When you watch Manny fight, you know there will be fireworks." Several shoe companies offered juicy contracts for Pacquiao to sign. A Chinese brand, that is starting to make waves internationally, made a serious offer and so did a well-known Japanese brand. But in the end, Pacquiao decided to go with Nike. A source said a huge Nike billboard will be unveiled in Metro Manila on Nov. 2 showing Pacquiao in a fighting pose and the words "Just Do It" at the bottom. The reference is for Pacquiao to get the job done when he faces Morales in the climax of their ring trilogy. http://www.philstar.com/philstar/NEWS200610101602.htm Quote Link to comment
