Watch Live.. Number One vs Numero Uno



The September 19 bout between Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Juan Manuel Marquez is rapidly approaching.

Both fighters are future Hall of Famers ... but who has the edge in this particular match-up? At 32, Mayweather - who has been out of the ring nearly two years - has selected a top five pound-for-pound fighter for his comeback. A less confident fighter may have chosen the more conventional route of shaking off any ring rust against a hand-picked opponent in a tune-up bout.

At 36, Marquez has 55 pro fights under his belt but has yet to show any evidence of being past his prime. His bigger issues are moving up nearly ten pounds from lightweight to 144 and giving up five inches in reach to the naturally larger Mayweather.

Who do you think will win? Mayweather or Marquez?

Pacquiao vs. Cotto on Nov. 14. Who Will Win?



Manny Pacquiao vs. Floyd Mayweather Jr. is the bout boxing fans need to see to determine - once and for all - who's the best pound-for-pound fighter in the world today.

With Mayweather fighting Juan Manuel Marquez on Sept. 19, boxing fans will instead get the bout that most want to see.
Manny Pacquiao will meet Miguel Cotto on Nov. 14 at the MGM Grand Garden in Las Vegas, Nevada. Neither Pacquiao nor Cotto is ever in a dull fight. The two in the ring together is certain to produce fireworks. The bout - at a mutually agreed upon weight limit of 145 pounds - will be shown on HBO pay-per-view. Financial terms were not disclosed but Pacquiao will reportedly receive more than 50% of the money.

VIA ESPN.COM

A deal has been completed for boxing’s biggest fight of the fall: A showdown between pound-for-pound king Manny Pacquiao and welterweight title-holder Miguel Cotto.

Pacquiao and Cotto, two of boxing’s most popular and crowd-pleasing fighters, will meet at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas on Nov. 14 (HBO PPV), Top Rank promoter Bob Arum told ESPN.com on Monday.

“It’s done,” said Arum, who was back at work in his Las Vegas office after a vacation in London and Italy and attending a wedding in Israel. “While I was away I reached a verbal agreement with each side. Pacquiao committed to the fight this weekend and Cotto the week before while I was in Israel. I was on the phone all the time trying to get this done.”

Arum said his attorney, Michael Heitner, was preparing the documents for signatures.

“But everything is agreed or I wouldn’t say what I am saying,” Arum said. “The weight, the percentages, the guarantees — it’s all agreed to.”

Although the percentage split was not disclosed, Pacquiao (49-3-2, 37 KOs) will receive more than 50 percent of the money. That was never a serious sticking point, however. The key holdup had been the contract weight.

Cotto (34-1, 27 KOs), a titleholder at 147 pounds, had agreed to drop below the welterweight limit for the fight. Pacquiao, the 140-pound junior welterweight champion, wanted him to come all the way down to 143 pounds. Cotto refused. Ultimately, they agreed on a 145-pound maximum weight.

Pacquiao, 30, the national hero of the Philippines, scored a sensational knockout of Ricky Hatton to win the junior welterweight title on May 2 at the MGM Grand. The victory gave Pacquiao a world championship in a record-tying sixth weight division.

Cotto, 28, of Puerto Rico, is coming off a bloody split decision victory in a title defense against Joshua Clottey on June 13 at New York’s Madison Square Garden.

Given their penchant for all-action brawls, Arum said he had high expectations that Cotto and Pacquiao would produce another memorable fight.

“I’m really excited because it’s a real fight. These are two real warriors,” Arum said. “Whichever way this fight goes, I think it’s going to be a classic because of the way these guys fight. There where will be a lot of engagement. They’re great fighters. Cotto and Pacquiao are gutty guys. If you want blood and action and excitement, this is the fight.”

Arum said tickets would go on sale in late August followed by a three-city press tour.

“I want to get it done the week after Labor Day so I don’t interfere with the Floyd Mayweather-Juan Manuel Marquez fight,” he said. “I don’t want [Golden Boy Promotions] saying I jumped them.”

Arum said the tentative tour schedule would be Sept. 9 in Los Angeles, Sept. 10 in New York and Sept. 12 in San Juan.

“Pacquiao and Cotto are both very pumped up for the fight,” he said.
