Pacquiao denies rumor about fight with Mayweather on September 2014







































Rumors started to float on the web last Thursday regarding an agreement between Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Manny Pacquiao to fight on September this year. Fans have started to rejoice but Pacquiao has denied the rumors. 
A few days back, Mayweather has given another condition before he agrees to fight Pacquiao. Manny should quit Arum promotion before negotiations begin. Manny's contract would end by the end of the year. If Manny does not sign a new contract with Bob Arum, maybe then would the mega-fight happen. 

Right now Arum is focus on Manny's fight on April 2014 between two potential opponents. The top fighters on the list is WBO welterweight champion Timothy Bradley and Ruslan Provodnikov the current light welterweight champion. Juan Manuel Marquez has refused to fight Pacquiao for a fifth time. 

If Manny Pacquiao leaves Bob Arum, would that mean that the Mega fight will happen? Or will Mayweather come up with more conditions for the fight. Every boxing fan has been waiting for this match to happen. At this point I don't think Bob Arum would let Manny go that easily. We would just have to wait more and hope this match happens.

Pacquiao wins against Rios


Brandon "Bam Bam" Rios didn't plan to become Many Pacquiao's punching bag or become his tune up game but that is what happened. Pacquiao is coming from two consecutive defeats with Timothy Bradley and Juan Manuel Marquez. He plans to redeem himself when he faces off with Brandon Rios. Rios on the other hand is coming from a lost against Mike Alvarado and plan to get this win. The match is set in Cotai Arena Macau.



The match was one-sided with Pacquiao landing 281 out of 781 punches (36%) while Rios Landed 138 out of 502 punches (27%). Winning this match earned Pacquiao the WBO international welterweight belt.Judges score at the end of the bout is 120-108, 119-109 and 118-110 all favoring Manny Pacuqiao. 




According to Rios they expected that Pacquiao will be fast but his speed during the match was something their camp didn't expected. Pacquiao’s speed has caused problems for Rios. He was waiting for the chance to give Pacquiao one big punch that could knock him out but unfortunately for Rios the opportunity never came. Rios that Pacquiao did not hurt him but said in a post press conference “But he was quick. I did train for quickness but he was much quicker than my sparring partners.”

Pacquiao improves his record with 55 wins, 5 loss and 2 draws while Brandon Rios' records 31 wins, 2 loss and 1 draw.  Talks has already begun that Pacquiao would return to the ring of April 2014. Currently they have to opponents in mind. He would either fight Ruslan Provodnikov or Timothy Bradley.

Marquez vs. Pacquaio out, Bradley vs. Marquez in?

After months of negotiation between Manny Pacquiao and Juan Manuel Marquez, it seems that we won't be seeing the two fight it out in the ring this year. Rumor has it that Marquez's asking price for the bout is $20 Million. Negotiations has failed and Marquez is now in talks with another who fighter who has beaten Pacquiao via a controversial split decision, Timothy Bradley.

Aside from Bradley, Marquez is also interested in fighting the interim World Boxing Organization (WBO) light welterweight champion Mike Alvarado. Marquez however is more interested in fighting Bradley since he has the opportunity to win another title in a fifth division.

Marquez won his last match with flying colors as he surprised the whole boxing world with his 6th round knockout against Manny Pacquaio. Bradley has won his last match against Ruslan Provodnikov via unanimous decision. 

So who are you betting on? I would go for Marquez who despite his age while compensate with his experience. He is the only fighter who has knock Manny Pacquaio in years. I think a lot of people would agree that Manny was the victor in his match against Bradley. With the amount of damage that Manny has inflicted and the fact that Bradley was on a wheel chair after a post-match interview says a lot. I just don't know what happen with the judges though.

There are rumors circulating that Pacquiao is interested in matching up with Mike Alvarado this coming October in Macau.Who knows. Maybe the winner of each match would face each other next. So I guess we will have to wait if there would be a fifth Pacquaio Marquez match.
