The Dallas Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, Texas is the venue of the said fight with a seating capacity that will reach up to 80,000 , but Top Rank Promotions boss Bob Arum said that he can easily fill it up with 50,0000 people for the fight and that might not be enough to get all Pac-Man fans in the place. Now that Dallas Stadium has become the mecca of all major events in the US may be the boxing matches like this one in particular will become high attraction for the people of Texas and the near by cities.

Manny Pacquiao is one of the best boxing fighters in history and the fact that they couldn’t agree in the fight with the best of the best welterweight boxer in the World Floyd Mayweather Jr. and this could be the chance for Manny to show everyone that he can beat anyone at any place and any time and that he’s a clean fighter free of drugs or any enhancement medications like steriods. Manny Pacquiao born December 17th, 1978 at Kibawe, Bukidnon, Mindanao in Philippines is considered by Ring magazine the best pound for pound boxer in the Globe and that is quite an assumption because of the fact that he didn’t get to fight the undefeated Floyd Mayweather Jr. His record right now shows 50-3-2 with 38 KO’s and he’s currently the WBO World Welterweight Champion and Ring magazine Light Welterweight Champion. He is also a former WBC World lightweight champion, WBC World Super featherweight Champion, IBF World Super Bantamweight Champion, WBC World Flyweight champion. He’s the first boxer in history to win 7 world titles in seven different weight classes. In addition, he is the only boxer to win the lineal championship (“the man who beat the man”) in four different weight classes. Well besides all his tittles the guy does pretty much everything, he’s also involve in politics, filmmaking and music recording so it sounds like he is quite the business man. he trains hard and his power comes from multiple combinations and basically for this fight he has trained like a real champ, taking it seriously on and off the ring. I know there are many rumours that manny couldn’t go up 7 weight classes without any extra help from any restricted substances but for me the guy looks as clean as one can be as a professional athlete, he doesn’t need the help in my opinion, he has plenty of boxing to beat just about anyone so his mayor concern will be to re-establish the trust of his fans. In my opinion the guy took some steriods because it is very hard to go up 50 pounds in muscle weight without any extra juice without losing any strenght or speed, and incrementing his overall power but some people think he’s a gifted athlete, I guess because of the lack of prove we will go with the second opinion.
Joshua Cottley born in March 16th, 1976 in Accra, Ghana gets to climb in the ring with the best of the best in Welterweight and he’s planning to make the best of the opportunity. His current record is 35-3-1 with 20 KO’s. Clottey rose to prominence by winning his first twenty fights, including 14 by knockout. His performance set him up to fight Carlos Baldomir, in a title defense by Baldomir for the WBC International Welterweight Title. Clottey lost by disqualification in a controversial fight. Clottey was winning the fight until the 10th round, where he was penalized two points for an intentional head butt. After that fiasco he rose from that embarrasing performance he won 10 straight fights culminating in an IBF Intercontinental Welterweight title. Then he got his big shot to the title against Antonio Margarito but broke his hand in the 4th round and ended up losing the fight by unanimous decision and he proved to the boxing world he is a worthy opponent. He also lost against Miguel Cotto but the fighter has never lost by KO against anyone so we might want to keep that on our minds since this fight could go all the way. The fight will be the highlight of Cottley’s career so he will try as hard as possible to knock Pacquiao who haven’t lost a fight in a while.
FIGHT ODDS
MANNY PACQUIAO -500
JOSHUA COTTLEY +400
THE PREDICTION WILL BE AN EASY ONE. THE FACT THAT COTTLEY IS HUNGRY FOR A TITLE MAKES HIM UNPREDICTABLE IN SO MANY LEVELS AND HIS REACH IS BETTER SINCE HE IS A REAL WELTERWEIGHT WHILE PACQUIAO BUT MANNY HAS CLASS AND HE WILL NOT BE EASILY DEFEATED. MY PICK WILL BE MANNY PACQUIAO -500 TO WIN BY DECISION.
