PACMAN

Wow .. 3rd post of the day, I think this is the first time I ever submitted 3 post in a day. But its catch up time I guess. Anyway, watched the Manny Pacquiao vs Antonio Margarito Boxing match this morning. Actually I did not even knew about the match until Friday when I wanted to cancel my Starhub Sports channel and they had this on their phone log which was an interesting marketing ploy. So I finally got to see the “pacman” in action live ! They had a few smaller fights before the main event. So Let’s Get Ready to Rumble ….. as the announcer said. After all that hype and even when Manny was smaller, lighter, had less reach, it was still a one sided affair, it was all Manny from start to finish. Margarito had a cut below his right eye and both his eyes were almost swollen shut, many times either the doctor or referee had to check that he could see before continuing the fight. It was really one sided and even in the 10th round there was a time where not only the announcers were hoping the ref would stop the fight but after a flurry of blows, Manny looked to the ref with that why don’t you stop the fight look. In the end Margarito hanged in there till the end and made it to the 12th round. The Pacman won and he has 8 titles now to his name outstanding fight !
