By Reni M. Valenzuela "Sugar" Shane Mosley and his camp are so enamored with selective history.  They have been focusing too much on some of Manny Pacquiao’s previous fights to capitalize on Pacman’s “flaws,” thus utilizing them as a basis to strategize their fight-plan. … [Read more...] about Mosley Overlooks The Real Pacman And It’s a Big Mistake

By Don Donatello A while back, I wrote an article that showed Juan Manuel Marquez was ducking Manny Pacquiao. I pointed out that he intentionally sabotaged negotiations by insisting that he dictates the terms of the fight. He asked for a guaranteed $5 million dollars to fight Pacquiao, and he wanted to dictate at what weight the fight should take place too. One would … [Read more...] about TIRED OF PHONY JUAN MANUEL MARQUEZ’S DUCKING ACT

By Reni M. Valenzuela Shane Mosley has the stronger drive to win. He is up to turn a tsunami like waves against him.  Having a monstrous pile of people “belittlement” on his abilities to contend with and millions to gain (and gain even more) with almost nothing to lose but his life, Mosley is expected to approach the fight between him and Manny Pacquiao in a “do or die” … [Read more...] about Mosley’s “Do or Die” and Pacquiao’s Prayer

By Martin Cruz, Jr. Floyd Mayweather, Jr, the undefeated former pound for pound king of boxing, often seats uneasily in his softly-cushioned recliner in front of his video player watching them fall, one after the other in devastating defeat. Chatchai Sasakul, Lelhonolo Ledwaba, Juan Manuel Marquez, Marco Antonio Barrera, Erik Morales, David Diaz, Oscar De La Hoya, Ricky … [Read more...] about THE MAYWEATHER TRAVESTY

By Charlie Knoxville I always see a few people on YouTube, message boards and boxing blogs complain about who Manny Pacquiao fights. If these people can't stand Manny Pacquiao or his fans, why do they make so many videos or write so many articles talking about the man? If you don't like him do what I do, don't waste your time talking about them. … [Read more...] about If you don’t like Manny Pacquiao, don’t talk about him!

By Pierre Grimm After his triumphant decision victory over Andre Berto on April 16, the newly crowned WBC welterweight champ, Vicious Victor Ortiz, thanked Manny Pacquiao and Freddie Roach for their pre-fight advice during his post fight interview with HBO's Larry Merchant. Pacquiao, although friends with Ortiz, is now a possible opponent for the WBC champion. … [Read more...] about Will Manny Pacquiao Fight ‘Vicious’ Victor Ortiz Next?

By Mark F. Villanueva Other things could have happened at the eighth round that ended in a stoppage. Amidst that hellfire targeted at him, the defending WBO Featherweight World Champion could have used the ropes and shelled himself for a defensive cover, moved around the ring to buy him more time to clear his head, or, he could have realized in a flash that it was the best … [Read more...] about Orlando Salido: A Blue Collar King

A Lenten Reflection By Reni M. Valenzuela Boxing most celebrated heavyweight champion has Parkinson’s disease. He has not been able to control and move his faculties right and can hardly utter a sentence for quite a number of years now due to his lingering illness. Muhammad Ali used to shout it out loud to the world over and over again, “I am the greatest!” … [Read more...] about MUHAMMAD ALI: WHO IS THE GREATEST?

By Jim Waldear Turning back the clock is rare. Other than daylight savings time. But it seems the only ones that have done it are great former champions fighting a great champion. Being around the sport of boxing for a good duration, the one thing other than age that goes down hill is the training. … [Read more...] about Pacquiao vs. Mosley: The Clock, Training, and Rude Awakenings

By Ingming Aberia Recent reports have quoted Shane Mosley as saying he will not settle for a points win against pound for pound king Manny Pacquiao when they meet atop the ring on May 7, 2011 at Las Vegas, Nevada, USA. He said he will knock Pacquiao out. Can he do it? Mosley, nearing 40, has a record that tends to support that possibility.
