Las Vegas Neveda at the MGM grand on November 14th, the weight has been set for 145 lbs, this will be one of the biggest fights of the year. Following the Mayweather vs Marquez fight this fight is hyped even more because if Manny Pacquiao wins there is no other worthy opponent in the world other than Floyd Mayweather that makes any sense. Pacquiao is (49-3-2) 37 of which are Knock outs. The fight which will take place for at home watchers will be available on HBO Pay Per view for 55 Dollars. It starts Saturday night with Andre Ward, former Olympic gold medalist who is undefeated as a pro, in a tune-up fight at Pechanga in Temecula. On the same Showtime telecast, but coming from Denmark, will be a tuneup fight involving WBA super-middleweight champ Mikkel Kessler. Then, on Nov. 21 in Oakland, Ward and Kessler will meet. Pacquiao chose to fight Cotto because the rib injury of Floyd Mayweather pushed his fight with Juan Marquez back another month. So Pacquiao couldn't wait to fight Mayweather with out getting another fight in so he chose Cotto which is a fair opponent. Promoters are calling this fight the best fight of the year and maybe even the decade. Through all the hype the talk about the Mayweather Pacquiao talk has almost taken the though of Cotto even having a change to win. But he does and everyone including Pacquiao need to focus on the fight because if Cotto slips a win in Pacquiao could see his next fight being worth substantially less money.
