Manny Pacquiao won via knockout after a powerful punched on Hatton. The punch exploded on Hatton's chin, which for boxers is the sweetest of sweet spots, because the chin is a relay switch to the circuitry of the brain. Hatton was unconscious before he hit the canvas. Miguel Cotto is a very tough boxer and with a speed. He is a defensive-boxer and a counter-puncher. He has also a power to knockout his opponent. Last June 13 at the Madison Square Garden in New York, Cotto defended his title against Clottey when he knockout Clottey in the first round of the match. Cotto won on a split decision.

Cotto with his speed, toughness, defense, boxing mind and zeal. What more could they attain to make the fight any better? Pacquiao vs. Cotto 2009.

Friday, July 3, 2009
Undefeated Floyd Mayweather Jr. fight against Numero Uno’s Juan Manuel Marquez, postponed from July 18 to September 19. The postponement happens when Mayweather suffered a rib injury during his training. The 12-round bout, marking the return of Mayweather after a long vacation that stretch to 21 months now, The Mayweather vs. Marquez rescheduled fight will be staged at the MGM. Mayweather are back in action once again after doctors cleared Mayweather to fight on the later date. On his return, fight fans hope will be a stepping stone to an eventual showdown with Filipino star Manny Pacquiao who is currently as the world pound-for-pound king. The former pound-for-pound king issued a statement that said "I am relieved to be cleared to fight," Mayweather said. "Trust me, Sept. 19 is a great weekend for boxing, and all of my fans -- of which there are many Mexicans too -- can certainly hold on to their hats and sombreros when I get back in to the ring." Marquez, a five-time world champion in three weight classes, figures to throw his name into the pound-for-pound debate. He's already considered "Numero Uno" in his country Mexico and vows to show Mayweather why he's so highly regarded as Numero Uno. "I am glad Mayweather has been cleared to fight and we can get down to business,'' Marquez said.”My win will be for all the people and entire country of Mexico. I am sure of victory." Mayweather made the announcement of his comeback on the same morning of the May 2 fight between Pacquiao vs. Hatton. Since then, some within the sport have criticized Mayweather for choosing Marquez rather than going directly against the fighter ranked the No. 1 pound-for-pound champ Manny Pacquiao. "I didn't want to fight a has-been when I came back. I wanted to fight one of the best in the sport, and that's what Marquez is." Said by Floyd Mayweather "Mayweather could have fought Manny Pacquiao. He just had to wait one day,'' said Freddie Roach. "I think he's scared of Pacquiao because he chose Marquez. But we're not going to wait around. I like to keep Manny busy. A busy fighter is a good fighter. I'd like to get a fight in November or December and we're not going to wait around for anybody. If (Miguel) Cotto wants to come down a few pounds, we can make it happen. If Shane Mosley wants to come down a few pounds, we can make that happen." Ticket sales reportedly had been slow for the pay-per-view event, but the Mayweather vs. Marquez fight should get a significant boost because of the new date. Boxing fans are so eagerly want to watch this Mayweather vs. Marquez match, but still we have to wait until September 19.

Pacquiao vs. Cotto
The WBO Welterweight champion Miguel Cotto next fight is against the best pound-for-pound king, Manny Pacquiao. The Pacquiao vs. Cotto match is scheduled on November 14, 2009. The Pound for Pound king already gave the signal to his promoter Bob Arum to set a fight for the WBO Welterweight title. Although there are still some negotiations happening between the camp of Pacquiao and Cotto but this will sure to all boxing fans that the fight is still on. The Pacquiao vs. Cotto fight is another exciting match to watch. Pacman is known for his tremendous speed and punches. His southpaw stance complements his style. He has a fast and powerful left straight that would often catch an orthodox fighter getting out cold. When Manny Pacquiao smells blood you will be his prey. Miguel Cotto is a very good boxer, smart boxer and tough also. He is a defensive-boxer and a counter-puncher. He has also a power to knockout his opponent, just what happen to Clottey on their match last June 13 at the Madison Square Garden. Cotto knockout Clottey in the first round of the match and Clottey couldn’t believe it. Cotto won on a split decision. Clottey almost walk out from the ring as soon as he heard the announcement that he didn’t win. Although Cotto has no speed against Pacquiao but he is tough man to beat. Pacquiao vs. Cotto would be a chance to see by all boxing fans at its best. I like these two fighters. They are the best in their own styles!
