By Lester Salvador Freddie Roach is at it again, calling out bigger fighters, but only at a catchweight. Freddie is just bluffing everyone.

Manny Pacquiao Will KO Marquez’ Dreams
By Ingming Aberia Inside the ring, Juan Manuel Marquez makes many believe he is better than Manny Pacquiao. Outside of it, the pound-for-pound king just keeps knocking him out.

Why is Manny Pacquiao the Catchweight King?
By Bert Perez Catchweights shouldn't diminish Manny Pacquiao's greatness. Only the haters will spew this garbage about him. Many boxers through history have done catchweight fights. If he were to fight someone and do a higher limit fight they will still discredit him.

Evaluating “Sugar” Shane Mosley
By Mark F. Villanueva At thirty nine years of age there seems to be no indication yet that “Sugar” Shane Mosley plans to take it slow in terms of pursuing his boxing career and fighting the big fights.

Pacquiao Retrospective: You Know You Must Be Damn Good If…
By Steve Lewis You know you must be damn good if the other candidate for best pound-for-pound fighter is demanding that you take Olympic-style drug testing when previously, no one else has ever had to take one…ever.

Forget Mosley, Let Manny Pacquiao Fight Ricardo Mayorga!
By Elmer Wincott Shane Mosley is already claiming on his Twitter account that he is the next opponent for Manny Pacquiao on April of 2011 in Las Vegas, but I feel that Shane Mosley isn't worthy enough to fight Manny, he needs one more loss first to face the Filipino, he is only my second choice; I believe there is a more worthy opponent out there for Pacquiao and his name is … [Read more...] about Forget Mosley, Let Manny Pacquiao Fight Ricardo Mayorga!
PACQUIAO-MARQUEZ III: Should Pacquiao Agree?
By Dr. Massuline Antonio D. Ligaya Shortly after winning his bout against Michael Katsidis, Juan Manuel Marquez wore a shirt where the bold pronouncements “Marquez beat Pacquiao twice” were imprinted. Some opined that such arrogant display was meant to lure the People’s Champ into a third fight.

Why Pacman is an All-Time Great and a Once-in-a-Generation Phenomenon
By Bert Perez What’s wrong if Manny Pacquiao declined a THIRD fight with Juan Manuel Marquez?

Manny Pacquiao Cherry Picks His Opponents And Acts Like A King
By Heath Chavez It seems the consensus is that when it comes to the matchmaking process of who Manny Pacquiao fights it's ultimately Bob Arum and Freddie Roach's decision. This is one of the biggest lies in boxing. Top Rank promotions Bob Arum and boxing trainer Freddie Roach don't pick who they want Manny Pacquiao to fight next, it's Manny who has the final say and … [Read more...] about Manny Pacquiao Cherry Picks His Opponents And Acts Like A King
JUAN MANUEL MARQUEZ AT WELTERWEIGHT IS A DISASTER
By Don Donatello Juan Manuel Marquez must prove himself that he can actually win a round fighting at welterweight.
