blue_blooded Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 Sabi nga ni Dan Rafael sa ESPN.com, kahit na anong resulta ng laban ni Pacman kay Morales, basta magpakita lang siya ng normal niyang laro, makakadagdag lang daw sa posisyon niya bilang ia sa pinakamagaling na boksingero sa pound per pound list niya.

blue_blooded Posted September 26, 2006 Share Posted September 26, 2006 OT, pero one off lang. The first Pinoy boxing legend. May similarities kay Pacquiao ano? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4aODu-IwG18 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
