Catch this big fight Sunday afternoon live at 1 p.m. on SBS Sports. People in N. America have to either be at the arena or do pay-per-view.

Lucky us!

This is one of the +'s to living in Korea. Fights that are PPV back home are free here (if you have cable).

you have to get cable to recieve sbs sports? Pretty sure I don't have it on my tv, would be awesome though. I have watched the last 3 big fights (Calzaghe-Jones, Hatton-Malignaggi and Hopkins-Pavlik) streaming over the net and I'm fed up with that quality.

Manny is a good dude. I got to hang with him one night in the Phils in Boracay last December. He trained with a friend of mine there a long time back. He was getting ink done upstairs and all the drinks were on him while we chilled.

My wife hates him though. Not sure why, I think she is the only Filipina that hates him Razz

I think Oscar is going to win this - he is too big and hits too hard for Pacquiao - Manny is a great fighter but started at strawweight - whilst Oscar has always been a big welterweight. (Even as a lightweight he was huge for the weight)

Oscar should keep it on the outside whilst banging that big straight right down the middle with a stoppage in around the 10th.

I could be wrong as Pacquiao is hard core! Twisted Evil

Is it just me or do people realize this is a staged, throw-away fight? I guarantee you the De La Hoya Hatton contract has already been inked. That dude Arum is one shrewd Hebrew!

I agree - Hatton will be counterpunched into a knockout loss in around the 6th.

I thought Mallinaggi would have fought a slicker fight than the one he actually did fight against Hatton - what was Buddy McGirt throwing the towel in the 11th all about? No wonder Paulie was pissed off - he looked allright to go the distance.

That dude Malli made the entire Brooklyn camp look soft. Hatton reminds me of a young Julio Cesar Chavez.

Coincindentally I was in the Philippines during Manny's last two fights...that was FUN. Wish I was down there for this one!

I'll try to catch it on the internet though.
