Top Rank promoter Bob Arum has confirmed what we learned last Monday after a meeting between Arum and Manny Pacquiao’s adviser Michael Koncz in Los Angeles that Antonio Margarito is the choice as the next opponent of the pound-for-pound king and “Fighter of the Decade” Manny Pacquiao after undefeated Floyd Mayweather Jr apparently paid no attention to a contract for a megabuck showdown against Pacquiao planned for November 13.


Venue TBA. lol

Arum and Koncz visited Monterrey which made a lucrative offer to stage the fight in competition with Abu Dhabi whose Royal Family representatives had met with Arum and Koncz and indicated they were very keen on staging the fight in the U.A.E on the eve of the Formula I Grand Prix in Abu Dhabi.

Despite the reputation of Abu Dhabi and the oil-rich emirates penchant to stage major sports events, Arum indicated to us that he wanted a firm offer and was not inclined to bank on speculative numbers.


Manny Pacquiao is a big business! But the bad news is boxing fans will wait for Pacquiao-Mayweather match to happen.

There is only one boxing match that the world really wants to see: Floyd Mayweather Jr. versus Manny Pacquiao. If the two ever box, it will undoubtedly set the record for pay-per-view purchases and could very well be the most hyped fight in boxing history. Both boxers would make an enormous amount of cash.

What’s the problem.

Apparently, Floyd Mayweather Jr. is scared. What other excuse could there be for him not agreeing to fight Manny Pacquiao this time? Last year, there were understandable differences. This time, the boxing world is just waiting for his okay.

The proposed fight would take place on Nov. 13. The venue will either be in Las Vegas or in Cowboys Stadium. With arguably the two best fighters in the world going head to head, almost every sports fan will be turning in.

We wait for you, Floyd Maywether Jr.

You aren’t scared, are you?


This is what the world of boxing is waiting for, the face off of the two most prominent boxer alive. Are they waiting for the pig's tail to become long?

Boston Shrek and Donkey together again.

Nate Robinson will be back in Boston Uniform. He was important part of the Celtic's run in the playoffs and later in Finals, particularly in game 4, where he and Glen Davis outplayed the Lakers.

The Celtics are about to extend their relationship with Nate Robinson, after all.

The team, according to a league source, just reached agreement with their backup point guard on a two-year deal that will pay him approximately $4 million per season.

Agent Aaron Goodwin, who had told the Herald early in the week that a deal could be reached by the end of the week, turned out to be quite the sage. Agreement came after a brief slowdown in talks on Thursday.

Robinson, according to Goodwin, had made an unspecified concession, and the guard was in the process of waiting for the Celtics to make a concession of their own.

By this morning, both sides were satisfied. The Celtics, with many other needs to fill with minimum contracts, no longer have to list point guard among those needs.


If I may add Mr. Ainge should really add some depth on the bench. Someone who can play along with the Big three and learn from them besides Kendrick and Rajon of course.
