Manny Pacquaio gives up his lightweight title


Filipino superstar Manny Pacquiao gave up his World Boxing Council lightweight world title Tuesday on February 23 2009. Pacquaio defeated Juan Manuel Marquez to win the WBC super featherweight title in March 2008 , then took down David Diaz to claim the WBC lightweight title in June 2008. His last fight was a ko victory over Oscar De La Hoya in December 2008.

Pacquiao is getting ready to face Britain's Ricky Hatton on May 2 in Las Vegas. Both Of them will start promoting their megabout in February 28 2009 in Machester and then to other cities in the UK and the US.

Pacquiao, who is considered boxing's top pound-for-pound fighter, cited his desire to compete in the super lightweight division as his reason for vacating his crown.

Pacquiao (48-3-2, 26 KOs) firmly entrenched himself as a superstar and perhaps the sport's best pound-for-pound fighter in December when he dominated Oscar De La Hoya with speed and accuracy from beginning to end, scoring an eighth-round technical knockout victory.







THIS IS THE LETTER MANNY WROTE TO THE WBC:



Dear Mr. Sulaiman and World Boxing Council;

I take great pride and honor in representing the W.B.C. as its Lightweight Champion at the present time. Your instituion has opened the door formy success in boxing and I am grateful for the prestige your organization has given me over the years as one of its champions in many different weight categories.

I have had discussion with my team as to the direction of my career since my fight at 147 lbs with Oscar De La Hoya, on December 6, 2008. After careful consideration and the in the advancement of my professional boxing career, I intend at this time to campaign in the Super Lightweight division with a fight against Ricky Hatton on May 2, 2009.

Therefore, this correspondence will serve as formal notice to the World Boxing Council, I am voluntarily relinquishing my W.B.C. Lightweight Championship Belt in order to pave the way for a new champion and provide opportunities and success to other fighters in the Lightweight division.

I look forward to the opportunity and distinction of representing your organization as a World Champion in the future.

Sincerely,

Emmanuel “Manny” Pacquiao

Micheal Phelps still endorses Subway sandwiches but was dropped by Kellogg at the end of February 2009 when contract expires


Despite being removed from the sandwich chain's website, Subway will not drop its endorsement deal with the Olympic gold medalist because of his controversial pot photos. Kellogg's, however, dropped the swimmer because his behavior is "not consistent with the image of Kellogg." The cereal company will not renew his contract, which expires at the end of February.

"Like most Americans, and like Michael Phelps himself, we were disappointed in his behavior," Megan Driscoll, the rep for Subway ."Also like most Americans, we accept his apology. Moving forward, he remains in our plans."

Most of the swimmer's sponsors have said they're sticking by Phelps, including Visa, Speedo, luxury Swiss watchmaker Omega and athletic drink PureSports.

Micheal Phelps got caught on camera taking a hit in a marijuana bong


So you've seen it all over the news. Yes I did, It was on the front cover of the New York Daily News which half of the cover he shared with the winning SuperBall 43 champion, Pittsburg Steleers on February 2, 2009.

Micheal Phelps went to a party in Columbia, S.C. in November and got caught on camera taking a hit on a marijuana bong. Someone sold the photo to a London tabloid and it ran in the newspaper this past Sunday.

In a statement, Mr. Phelps confirmed the authenticity of the photo, saying: "I engaged in behavior which was regrettable and demonstrated bad judgment. I'm 23 years old, and despite the successes I've had in the pool, I acted in a youthful and inappropriate way, not in a manner people have come to expect from me. For this, I am sorry. I promise my fans and the public it will not happen again."

He's likely to lose millions in endorsement deals.
His endorsement deals include those with Kellogg, Subway, AT&T, Hilton and, most recently, Mazda.


Whats your opinion folk? To me , he is just human and we all go through phases in our life.

Checkout this pictures Micheal Phelps of being human. Who is he?
Phelps holds the record for the most gold medals won at a single Olympics with the eight golds he won at the 2008 Olympic Games.

Celebrity Boxing :Todd Bridges Vs Vanilla Ice



Celebrity Boxing was a FOX television show, in which celebrities whose careers and/or notoriety had diminished were pitted against each other in exhibition boxing matches. The contestants wore headgear during the fights, which were scheduled for three rounds apiece. Two episodes of the show were aired, both in the spring of 2002.

The first episode aired on March 13, 2002. The fights featured were Danny Bonaduce vs. Barry Williams, Todd Bridges vs. Vanilla Ice and Paula Jones vs. Tonya Harding.

The second episode aired on May 22, 2002. Darva Conger took on Olga Korbut in the opening bout. This fight was followed by Dustin Diamond vs. Ron Palillo and Manute Bol vs. William "Refrigerator" Perry. Joey Buttafuoco took on Joanie "Chyna" Laurer in the main event.

Boxing result : Canseco draws with Bonaduce in boxing match

Canseco draws with Bonaduce in boxing match

The 6-foor-4 Canseco jolted the 5-6 Bonaduce a couple of times in round 1 and a couple more in round 3. Bonaduce, who played Danny Partridge on the "The Partridge Family," never went down. Bonaduce predicted he would be knocked out, only to hang in there and land a few body blows on the hulking Canseco.

There were few big blasts and most of the crowd of 1,500 at a suburban Philadelphia ice rink started to leave before a decision was announced.

Danny Bonaduce vs Jose Conseco… Will this be fight of the year






Forget about the Pacquaio vs Hatton megafight on May 2 2009 as being the fight of 2009.

The biggest fight of the year will be taking place in Aston, Pa., Icework Skating Complex on January 24 2009 Saturday when former major leaguer Jose Canseco squares off against ex-"Partridge Family" star and morning radio loudmouth Danny Bonaduce.
This boxing match is only $9.99 to watch.

It's hard to say who's the favorite in this one. Canseco reportedly has kept up his training, and his steroid-enhanced arms and ability to turn on 'roid rage also could give him the upper hand.

I'd just hate to be the guy in charge of administering drug tests to these guys before the fight.
We know about Canseco. And Bonaduce is also no stranger to human-growth hormone (and just about every other kind of drug on the planet).

Conseco boxing record is 0 win 1 loss via knocked out by that Tongan ex-football player.





Bonaduce, who is a black belt in Tang Soo Do, boxed Donny Osmond in a charity event and later boxed former Brady, Barry Williams, in a separate event. Bonaduce won both contests, gaining a decision over Osmond and a TKO over Williams. On June 11, 2007, Bonaduce boxed attorney Robert Shapiro for a charitable event.
