I am not a historian or boxing. I enjoy to watch though. I am amazed how Manny can do what he does. If there is a next fight, maybe you will join me and my nephew to see it live. This time we were at World Palace and I enjoyed the venue. Ken,

Congrats!!!! to him, all of his Filipino fans, as well as us American fans who never misses a chance to see him perform. I actually took off 3 hours of work to see the fight. Cotto, in this fight reminded me a lot of George Foreman without the power, in that nearly all of his punches were slow and calulated....anounced so to speak. He looked like a shadow of his former self, but what fighter doesn't during a match with the "PACMAN". I have seen nearly all of Manny's amateur fights (on video of course), and even back then the majority of his opponents were much bigger than himself. Unfortunately, there is rumor that his next fight might be against Floyd Mayweather Jr., I say unfortunately becoz they both are equally my favorite Boxers......but then again so were Hearns and Hagler. As big a fan of boxing as I am, this is one fight I do not wish to see, but I assure you that if the fight is made I will be right there watching every heart thumping second of the match as if it were me inside that squared circle. Again, congrats!!! to Manny. Thanks for giving us another taste of what boxing used to be all about. Another great performance by Manny.

Although I am an American living here, I felt the national pride of having a hometown hero in the fight. The Filipino people have a hero among them. Good job, Pacman.
