SIGNORELLA’S COTTO-PACMAN PREVIEW

November 12th, 2009 By RingTalk

MOST ANTICIPATED FIGHT OF THE YEAR

New York, NY- Recognized by many experts in the boxing community as the greatest “pound for pound” fighter in the world, Manny Pacquiao (49-3-2, 37 KOs) will put it all on the line when he’ll battle pound for pound top ranked Miguel Cotto (34-1, 27 KOs) over 12 rounds or less at a catch weight of a 145 lbs at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, NV.

PACQUIAO GOT BAPTISM UNDER FIRE

Since dismantling the great Marco Antonio Barrera, Pacquiao has taken the boxing world by storm going 11-1-1 over 13 bouts knocking out 8. During that impressive six-year conquest, Manny beat 5 of the most elite fighters in the world (knocking out 4) all were considered to be bigger and stronger then him.

GRACE UNDER PRESSURE

After being violently stopped at the (suspect) hands of Antonio Margarito, a galvanized Cotto rebounded with two impressively fought wins. Unlike most young fighters who had administered a terrible beating early in their career, Miguel showed no signs of deterioration and just 16 months removed from the Margarito affair looks to claim the number one pound for pound status he was so close to capturing before his setback.

FAST FURIOUS FISTIC RAGE

This is without a doubt the most highly anticipated and best-made fight in boxing. Both men are “throw back” pressure fighters that fight at feverish tempos launching and absorbing massive amounts of punches in effort to set up their opponent for the kill. This is the “must see” fight for fans of the sport or sport fans in general.

GARBAGE UNDERNEATH FOR A $54.95 PPV CARD

Contender season one star Alfonso Gomez (20-4-2, 10 KOs) and battle tested brawler Jesus Soto-Karass (24-3-3, 16 KOs) appear in a ten round welterweight (147) affair that has no business being on PPV.

Counter punching Yuri Foreman (27-0, 8 KOs) risks his unblemished record against WBA super welterweight (154) champion Daniel Santos (32-3-1, 23 KOs) over 12 rounds or less. This kid excites his people, but Yuri can’t fight much.

Rising star Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. (40-0-1, 30 KOs) stays busy against unknown Troy Rowland (25-2, 7 KOs) in a scheduled 10 round middleweight (160) co feature bout.
