Manny Pacquiao!
On the eve of the Manny Pacquiao-Ricky Hatton fight on May 2, 2009 in Las Vegas, Nevada, I will introduce you to the best pound-for-pound fighter in the world!
Many times, it is the heavyweight division of fighting that brings headlines to the boxing world - names such as Muhammed Ali, Mike Tyson, Evander Holyfield, and Lennox Lewis come to mind.
Lost in the glamour of the heavyweights are the small fighters who not only use power, but speed and quickness to their advantage! Mr. Pacquiao is one of the most devastating fighters to come onto the scene in recent years! His fight last year against Oscar de la Hoya was so punishing that it became apparent that de la Hoya's ability to compete was no longer there! The "Golden Boy" had lost his shine!
The Filipino boxing sensation was born in Kibawe, Bukidnon, Mindanao and currently resides in his home town of General Santos City, South Cotabato, Philippines. As his wins pile on, his legend grows not only in the Philippines, but also in the United States.
