Manny Pacquiao V Henry Armstrong?
Seeing that Manny Pacquiao has carved an identity in every field that means something in his home country, that is sports, politics and show business, should we brace ourselves for an impending a retirement plan? Now that he's spread his reach in most aspects of public life in his home country, is that enough for the people to say he has in fact, prepared his activity after retirement.
As with most awards shows, one might expect that the nominees throughout these categories will win one other ones. For example, LeBron, Cabrera, Peterson and Phelps are all up for "Best Athlete" awards inside their respective sporting events. The same goes for the females.
Number 3/4 (tie). Shane Mosley. Mosley's performance against Antonio Margarito continues to pay for dividends from one P4P watch. How quickly people forget that she struggled against Ricardo Mayorga in September 2008 and lost to Miguel Cotto in November 2007. Yeah, he kicked the living spit from your Margarito. Considerably? According to BoxRec, he has nothing scheduled to do this year and likely won't look at his 2010 calendar until Cotto-Pacquiao is resolute.
Mayweather Junior. turned pro just 4 months shy of his 20th birthday. He's accumulated a 41-0 professional record but left behind a 84-6 record regarding amateur.

Mosley has avoided there's no-one to in his 18 year career. He could be 5-2-1 of his last eight fights together with 14 of his last 16 fights he faced a current or former world championship.
As for your Pacquiao fight, I'm convinced with various boxing fans and critics who have mislaid inerest in this particular encounter. Manny continues to battle and remain relevant while Floyd Jr .. just runs his Pacquiao Foundation mouth, gambles, and commits criminal shows. Floyd has nobody to blame other than himself for ruining his career an disenfranchising himself from the Americans that he's begging to get behind him.
