There is a posibility Manny Paquaio will fight Miguel Cotto this November 09 in Madison Square Garden




Promoter Bob Arum said on Saturday night he would like to see Manny Pacquiao face Floyd Mayweather Jr., and the Filipino’s next likely opponent would be Puerto Rican puncher Miguel Cotto sometime in November or December with New York as venue.

Miguel Cotto will have a homecourt advantage in New York because all the people outside Puerto Rico resides here about 99.9%. I'll guarantee Fat Joe and Jennifer Lopez gon be in da buildin on da big day.


If the Cotto match do happen, this will be good news to all Filipinos in the East Coast of the USA, who will not have to make a long trip to Las Vegas, the new Mecca of boxing, as well boxing fans all over the globe.

The Pacqauio-Cotto fight will be an excellent product for Top Rank to produce and the fans will love it. It is a neccesity for Top Rank to make this happen and make boxing exciting again.

I wrote in my earlier blog about Miguel Cotto althought this is a Manny Pacqauio zone because he is one of my favorate boxer too, but i will have to go with Manny again on this match.

Finally this bisaya/filipino dude made it to the Big Dance in Boxing. I dubbed the Battle of the East and West as Bruce "Manny" Lee vs Chuck "Rickey" Norkis. Just a joke. Credits to Top Rank Boxing and Golden Boy promotion for matching the best boxers of the world and givng enjoyment to boxing fans.
