I give the edge to Floyd Mayweather over Manny Pacquiao because I think his speed negates Pac's speed and also as a counter puncher, he will take Pac out of his game plan and pick him apart similar to how he did to Zab Judah once he got his timing down. Floyd will take Juan Manuel Marquez's game plan and operate it more effectively. And to top it off, he's the best defensive fighter since Pernell "Sweet Pea" Whitaker but I would love to see how he would react to catching one of those lefts square on the button. I think this is the fight Mayweather has to make to shut all the haters up and seal his legacy and I hope the competitor in him wants to match up with the second best fighter in the world and give the fans an exciting fight. But Mayweather saw the same fight we saw and I guarantee you that the butterflies had to get going a bit when he saw the ease at which Manny dissected Cotto. But styles makes fights and I know he also saw something that he could exploit if he made the fight. Logic says Mayweather in 12 but after what I just saw Saturday I will never underestimate the Pacman again. AJ representing Dallas, TX
Leon's Response: Mayweather and Pacquiao is the fight. Other than Shane Mosley, who has some business to tend to with Andre Bero, I don't think there's anybody else out there who can compete with PBF and Pac at welterweight. Mayweather-Pacquiao: Pound For Pound Coming May 2010.....I HOPE.

| | JUDGE DISPUTE SURROUNDS KESSLER-WARD
Super Six Tournament bout could go on without Kessler's WBA belt on the line
|
Press Release: Mikkel Kessler's promoter Wilfried Sauerland is extremely unhappy that two of the three judges as well as the referee for this weekend's Super Six tournament bout were chosen from challenger Andre Ward's home state, California. WBA champion Mikkel Kessler has traveled from Denmark to Oaklnad, California to face Ward. Sauerland told the press that Ward's promoter, Dan Goossen, "has done a great job to get his fighter three fights at home [in Showtime's Super Six tournament but] needless to say, we will not accept his friends and colleagues judging this fight, so he better starts moving because it takes a while to bring in new judges. The WBA has written a strong letter to the Californian commission that the choice of judges is unacceptable but the Californian commission has been somewhat hard to reach. The WBA has been trying to contact them, sending faxes and everything. If this issue is not sorted, we can have a Super Six fight, but Mikkel´s world title will not be on the line.” UPDATE: The California Athletic Commission has reportedly replaced one of the local judges with Michael Hook of Sweden, meaning the official scoring panel will consist of a Californian, a South African and a Swede.

How come people keep saying Manny Pacquiao is on steroids? I know he worked with a guy named Trevor Graham who was linked to the Marion Jones steroid case. But that's not enough for me. Just because he turned pro at 106 pounds does men he's on steroids. He was 16 years old and he's from a third world country. I bet big Floyd [Mayweather, Sr.] won't tell people his son was also a flyweight at 16 the only difference is he was a amatuer. Its natural for a man to put on 3 to 4 pounds of mass a year. So what's the deal? Can you shed light on any of these steroid rumors.
Leon's Response: My first response would be because people fear what they don't understand. Secondly, nobody has ever seen anything like this, so there's going to be speculation and borderline hate. Pacquaio walked Cotto down and destroyed him, two fights after giving Oscar the beating of his life and one fight after concussing Ricky Hatton in four minutes. Many people thought he was going to lose each of those three fights and each time he's looked more and more dominant. A victory over Mayweather, would make Manny Pacquiao the greatest fighter I've EVER seen. Mayweather certainly has more to lose by fighting Pacquiao than Pacquiao does fighting Mayweather.

| AND THE WINNER IS...EVERYBODY
By Al Bernstein
|
When the proverbial envelope was opened from the Manny Pacquiao-Miguel Cotto fight, the winner is, in fact, everybody. Who are all these winners? Glad you asked, here’s a list. Manny Pacquiao: This was not just a big win for Manny, it was a transformative one. He has now ascended from superstar to icon. This one time 106 pound fighter beat a genuine 147 pound champion who has skills and power. He took some very big welterweight punches to both the body and head, continued his reinvention into a brilliant boxer-puncher, and did it all with a panache and style that only great athletes can summon up. But unlike some great athletes, he manages to do it without even a shred of arrogance. He has won over the whole world. He is a true international champion.

Past living inductees (at the time of the inductions) have included boxing greats such as Willie Pep and Marlon Starling. Although he challenged for a world title, Scully did not reach the heights that Pep and Starling reached, but taking his entire contribution to the sport into account (his work as a pro trainer and serving as a mentor to many young amateurs), Scully richly deserves a plaque on the Connecticut Boxing Hall of Fame wall at Mohegan Sun right next to the “Will o’ the Wisp” and “Moochie.”

| | JACKIEWICZ-RODDRIGUEZ TO BE AN IBF WELTERWEIGHT ELIMINATOR

Press Release: On November 27th, Delvin Rodriguez (24-3-2, 14 KOs) will travel to Poland to face on Rafal "Braveheart" Jackiewicz (34-8-1, 18 KOs) in an IBF welterweight eliminator. The bout, scheduled for twelve rounds, will take place in Belk, Poland. Rodriguez is coming off a highly entertaining, split decision loss to Isaac Hlatshwayo this past August for the vacant IBF championship at 147 pounds. While Rodriguez is looking to rebound off the loss, Jackiewicz will be looking to keep his nineteen-bout, four-year win streak alive. "I am pleased that Delvin is getting another opportunity to become the mandatory challenger. I thought that Delvin won both fights against Hlatshwayo (the two first battled to a majority draw in November of last year)," stated Joe DeGuardia of Star Boxing. When you take the judge's scorecards over 24 rounds, only one scorecard separates Delvin from being the [IBF] champion. Hopefully Delvin will soon have an opportunity to fight once again for the coveted IBF World Championship. First and foremost Delvin must take care of business in Poland. Jackiewicz is a very skilled fighter, so Delvin knows he can't look past him. He hasn't lost in over four years and he will have a whole country behind him fight night. I can tell you though that Delvin has a very bad taste left in his mouth and he is hungrier than ever to get another shot at the championship and promises he won't leave it to the judge's scorecards this time around." Rodriguez vs. Jackiewicz will be promoted by Joe DeGuardia's Star Boxing in association with Bullit Knockout Promotions.

Marco Antonio Barrera, Erik Morales, Juan Manuel Marquez, Oscar De La Hoya, Ricky Hatton, and now Miguel Cotto… If there was any doubt that Manny Pacquiao is the pound-for-pound king, it was erased Saturday night when he stopped Miguel Cotto in the 12th round. Before the fight, a lot of critics believed that Pacquiao was overrated. They maintained that his wins over De La Hoya and Hatton weren’t significant accomplishments, that he doesn’t belong in the 140’s, and that he was biting off more than he can chew by facing Miguel Cotto. And now that he has silenced his critics once again, one can only hope that he will get the credit he deserves.

By G. Leon

Greg Talk to me. Pacquiao is a beast!!! OK so Cotto has always had a suspect chin but c'mon he's been in there and taken big punches from some of the best in there. Remember Margarito didn't knock him out he quit to avoid further punnishment and went 12 good hard rounds against Mosley to win a close decision(could have gone either way but you can't dispute the decision for Cotto). So what does this say about Pacquiao, fighting a guy who stood in there for 12 to eeke out a win against the man in the division and fought 11 rounds until he had nothing left against a guy who was seen as a beast beating everybody into submission with possibly(if he did it once i'm sure it wasn't the first time) loaded gloves outboxing him for a good portion of the fight that after the 5th or 6th round Cotto looked not only tired but like he wanted to give up. After that he blatantly ran for the rest of the fight. A lot of people like to discredit Pacquiao's fights but now you can't. Plain and simple he fought a full fledge welterweight who can box and who can punch and he took him apart and took his heart and I don't want to hear about him making Cotto come down to 145 because you know damn right well he didn't weigh anywhere near that 10 minutes after the weigh in and Pacquiao probably came into the fight at about 147 tops(I missed the unofficial weigh in). I am thoroughly impressed, period. Tony-Philly
Leon's Response: He's an animal the likes of which I've never seen. I don't even know who to compare him to or what to compare his recent run with. I've never seen anything like this kid. But am I the only one other than Pacquiao's strength coach who thinks Michael Koncz is a straight up douche?
