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  |

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!  |

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!

hatton will lose to dlh as well.. prolly more soundly then he lost to FMW (because FMW is more cautious) |

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. |
