PACQUIAO POUNDS CLOTTEY

Another victory to the Filipino boxing superstar, Manny “ Pacman “ Pacquiao, he is still the undisputed Welterweight Champion of the World.

Pacquiao punished Clottey with combinations to the body throughout in winning the unanimous decision to retain his World Boxing Organization welterweight title and his status as the world’s finest boxer.

Again, just like every fight, Pacquiao took advantage by using his blazing hand speed to rip through Clottey’s gloves and land hard, punishing shots.

According to CompuBox, Pacquiao outpunched Clottey 1,239 to 399 and outlanded him 246-108.

Here’s the complete details of the fight:

Judge 1: 120-108
Judge 2: 119-109
Judge 3: 119-109

Verdict: Pacquaio wins by unanimous decision

Round 12: Clottey bleeding from the nose as he comes out for the 12th and final round. Hug from the two fighters in centre ring – great to see. Both true sportsmen. Now they get back to the proper action and Clottey tries to come forward and does land with a left. Lovely left to the head from Pacquiao, ducking and weaving as he tries to load up for a final-round assault. Nice combination from Clottey but Manny hits back and again goes on the front foot. Astonishing conditioning from the P4P king – doesn’t even seem the slightest bit tired or winded. Into the final 30 seconds as Manny tries to put an exclamation mark on what surely will be his 51st professional victory. Pacquiao ends the night as he started it – attacking with Clottey on the ropes. Another Pacquiao round – a 120-108 shutout on my card. We’ll await the official verdict.

Round 11: The advice in Clottey’s corner is to “take a chance baby” but not much science involved from his seconds. Without his normal trainer tonight of course. Six minutes standing between Pacquiao and another dominant victory. Pacquiao again dominating the action. He’s hardly lost a round in the last two years. Pair of uppercuts from Clottey – showing great bravery. Followed by a right hand. Definitely at least having a bit of a go in this round. But it just serves to wake Manny up and he goes into top gear again. Left to the body, right to the head. Blazing hand speed. “Manny Manny” chants the Texas crowd. Uppercut and a left from Clottey. Knows he needs the knockout. Manny hits back with a flurry to the body. Lot of Manny’s punches being blocked, but he’s just dominating the fight again. Another round for the P4P king and a standing ovation from the 50,000 plus crowd.

Round 10: Out for the 10th and Clottey needs something pretty remarkable to win this one now. He’s shown great resilience and has landed a few decent rights. But every time he opens up the volume of shots coming back just causes him to tighten the guard once again. Clottey takes another big Pacquiao left – brave indeed. Pacquiao again attacking to the body. Clottey can’t even set himself, such is the speed with which Pacquiao operates. Lovely right hook from Pacquiao. Clottey trying to throw leather in return but nothing of any real consequence. Crowd getting behind Clottey a bit – at least he’s showing something in this round. Manny again blasting away to the body inside the final 20 seconds. Clottey on the ropes and now holding as the bell goes. Another Manny round. Shutout so far on my card.

Round 9: Clottey’s corner telling him how it is between rounds – he’s lost every session so far. Into the ninth – Freddie Roach predicted that this is where it will end. He’s normally pretty accurate but Clottey doesn’t look ready to go just yet. Manny on the offensive again. Jabbing well and then mixing in body shots and blazing combinations. Clottey lands a jab and then a combination. At last a bit of aggression from the man from Ghana. Another combination from Manny – hurling punches like a machine gun delivers bullets. Clottey on the ropes in the final 45 seconds. Manny definitely starting to put a dent in his defences. Another Manny round – 90-81 on my card and Clottey very obviously needs a knockout. Corner telling him the ref will stop it if he doesn’t throw more punches. Swelling under Manny’s right eye by the way.

Round 8: Pacquiao by the way a 1-20 shot with the bookmakers now as we go into the final five rounds. Manny going to the body – four shots to the rib cage of Clottey – but he just soaks it up again. Pacman gets a few seconds to recover from a low blow from Clottey. Better shots here from Manny – then a clash of heads but no damage. Five-punch combination from Pacquiao. Pretty one-sided in this round. Maybe the accumulation of shots is starting to have some sort of pay-off for Manny. Clottey just covering up – not really offering anything in return. Tried to land a left hook right at the end ofr the round. Jinkee Pacquiao now looks nervous ringside – but her man has won on every round on my card.

Round 7: Clottey told: “Come on, let’s take a chance” in his corner. Not sure that’s the wisest advice I’ve ever heard. At some stage yes, at this stage maybe not. Manny has definitely slowed in the last couple of rounds, maybe that’s intended though. There was a chance in the first four rounds – such was his intensity and workrate – that he’d punch himself out. Pacquiao goes on the attack midway through the round but Clottey again answers with a cracking right. Good burst from Manny – left to the head and then the body. But Clottey again just covering up on the ropes. Another Pacquiao round, but perhaps the best of the night for Clottey so far.

Round 6: Clottey not producing enough to win a round so far, but maybe the plan is to come on strong in the second half. Manny though didn’t appear to tire despite virtually going the distance against Cotto – what’s to say he will tonight? Good combination from Clottey as Pacquiao lays back on the ropes and invites his opponent to come forward. Manny back on the front foot but not putting as much in as he did in the first four rounds – when he was virtually non-stop aggression. Manny just waiting it would appear for Clottey to make a mistake. He hasn’t done yet. Manny again raises the pace in the final minute of the round to take it. Shutout so far in the first half of the fight for me.

Round 5: Pace slightly dropping early in the fifth. Manny’s workrate not quite as high. Wise move – if this one goes 12 he might have been a tad tired come the closing stages. Clottey comes forward with a good right again – good shot and one that’s been pretty accurate so far. No real effect on Pacquiao though, as yet. Manny now ups the pace but Clottey is taking a lot of his punches on the arms and on the gloves. Nice left from Clottey – Pacman on the back foot, almost inviting his opponent on. Blazing combination from Manny in the closing 10 seconds but again Clottey covers up. Difficult to know just how many of these are getting through. Definitely another Pacquiao round – 50-45 on my card.

Round 4: Into the fourth and Manny again putting n the work as Clottey implements what is starting to look like a pretty sound gameplan. Tight defence and occasional telling counters. More lateral movement in this round from Manny – perhaps in response to those rights from Clottey in the previous session. Lovely uppercut from Manny. Clottey on the ropes as Manny loads up. Good right and then more body shots – he’s thrown dozens and dozens already tonight. Another six or seven-punch combination from Manny – no idea how Compubox keeps up with him. Three-punch combination from Clottey. Again Manny’s round – 40-36 on my card – but Clottey still very much in there. By now Hatton had gone and Cotto and De La Hoya were both pretty much spent.

Round 3: Pacquiao worked non-stop in the first two sessions while Clottey didn’t. That could be a factor later on. Left from Pacquiao – Clottey answers with a right. Clottey always there for Manny, but with that peek-a-boo defence that’s not easy to breach. Manny whaling away but Clottey blocking a fair percentage of his shots. Nice right from Clottey – accurate and lands again. Pacquiao loads up – right to the head and then a sustained attack to the body. Two rights in response from Clottey though and this is turning into a decent scrap. Pacman definitely outworking his opponent but is his workrate and fusillade of punches denting the man from Ghana? Cracking round – another for Manny on my card but the best of the night so far for Clottey.

Round 2: Same gameplan from Clottey in the second, inching forward with a tight guard, trying to get close enough to Pacquiao to get his shots off. Manny always bouncing and lands a right and then a left to the body. Manny blasting away to the body while Clottey just maintains that peek-a-boo defence. Clearly the gameplan is to be strong in the second half of the fight. Doesn’t want to make the mistakes that Hatton and Cotto did early by getting hurt. Manny lands a solid left to the head and Clottey pretends to be wobbled. Did land though. Manny loading up to the body. Clottey tries to land with a right Manny again hits to the body with a right. Then a nice combination finished by a straight left. Manny’s round again – 20-18 for me.

Round 1: Final instructions out of the way from referee Rafael Ramos and we’re under way in this sensational venue with 51,000 fans packed inside. What does the Pacman have in store for us tonight? And can Clottey test the P4P king? All questions to be answered in the next 36 minutes – or maybe less. Clottey looks much bigger as you’d imagine, but so did Cotto, De La Hoya etc. Early attack from Manny, landing a left with Joshua on the ropes. Tight guard from Clottey. Pacquaio – as Freddie Roach said he would – going to the body early doors. Trying to weaken the man from Ghana and get him to drop that guard. Manny lands with a lightning counter which sees Clottey lurch off balance. Manny holding sway in the opener with that blazing hand speed. Manny’s round for me – working the jab and body shots to take it.

Manny Pacquiao Breaks out!

Boxer, Manny Pacquiao, may have thought the fight with Floyd Mayweather being canceled was an omen, predicting that he would never have become a household name – maybe he should consider his singing career instead. Now, Manny Pacquiao is fighting at Cowboy stadium. Little guys aren’t supposed to fill big stadiums, yet some 45,000 fans are expected to be on hand to watch Pacquiao up close and personal. “The best fighter I’ve ever seen,” said promoter Bob Arum, who includes Muhammad Ali in that group. “No one has ever punched with equal power from both hands like Manny.” Manny Pacquiao  will make at least $12 million in a new stadium far from the bright lights of Las Vegas. Just as importantly, Pacquiao’s doing it without Mayweather, now a bitter rival after talks for their megafight collapsed over Mayweather’s insistence on blood testing — and what Pacquiao believes was the inference he bulked up on performance-enhancing drugs.

“Some fighters like me, we can be the greatest fighters without fast words and trash talk,” Pacquiao said. “His [Mayweather’s] style is talking a lot of trash and it is not a good example for everybody.”

Naruto Manga 486 Review – FISTS

In the last chapter, the scenes ended with the clash of our two favorite ninjas – Naruto and Sasuke.  Naruto arrived just in time to save Sakura from Sasuke’s attack, and this was also the chance for Naruto to confirm his decision to fight Sasuke.

Sasuke attacked Naruto with his chidori and Naruto returned back with Rasengan.  If you remember, the very first time both of them made the same attack was at the top of Konoha hospital where Sasuke was so mad that Naruto have already surpassed him with his powers.  During that time, Sakura was also present trying to stop the two ninjas and it was fortunate enough that Kakashi was there to pull both attacks away from Sakura to the two water tanks.  During that time, it was very much noticeable that Naruto’s rasengan was more powerful than the Chidori and this thought angered Sasuke more.

A few years later, the same ensemble is present in this situation and the two ninjas are at it again, one Ninja full of hate while the other is full of hope and probably confusion on how to save his friend. 

The clash of power was so strong that both of them where blasted off from the strength of both attacks.  Kakashi watched as his two students fly away from the blast and at first instinct pushed himself to catch Naruto’s body while before Sasuke’s body hit the rocks of the mountain, Zetsu came out from nowhere and catched Sasuke’s fall.  Just to give info from the last whereabouts of Zetsu, he was left at the path from Iron Country where he last appeared to Danzou’s team and his bodies or clone of bodies laid lifeless on the ground.

Now Zetsu appears at the right time to aid Sasuke and he informed him that Tobi(Madara) has informed him to stay and watch over Sasuke without making his presence known.  Zetsu immediately realized that their situation is bad in front of Sakura, Kakashi and Naruto, with him still recovering from the attack on the Kage summit and Sasuke still beaten from his last fight, he had no choice but to call back Tobi.  Zetsu disappeared for a moment and went to Tobi’s hideout to inform him of the situation.

Tobi on the meantime just got back to his hideout getting ready for war, he removed his mask and mentioned that it was about time to take out the Rinnegan.  Now, this is an interesting thought since the Rinnegan that we know of belongs to Pain – Nagato.  But Nagato’s body was taken by his friend – Konan.  During the fight with Naruto, Konan requested that she takes Nagato and Yahiko’s body with her so she could properly bury them, a burial that they deserve.  But now, how could Madara have got the rinnegan eyes for himself…hmmm a mystery.

Tobi appeared through his time and space jutsu to re-appear before the Konoha Team 7 and easily recognized the Nine tails, not just by his appearance but from the great amount of charka that he must have felt.  He immediately snapped at Sasuke and reminded him that his order was for him to rest.  He looked back to the Konoha team and decided to that they should retreat for now and the destined fight should be at a different time and suitable place. 

Zetsu didn’t agree with Madara’s decision to retreat and summoned his other clones to be ready to fight.  This worried Kakashi a little bit as he could not bear to battle Madara and Zetsu alone.  Madara warned Zetsu that is not a front liner ninja and that he could not capture the Naruto on his own, the Nine tails has become powerful (of course, Naruto defeated Pain).  Madara mentioned that this hunt for the nine tails should be left for Sasuke.  Madara gave other orders to Zetsu, and that is to find Kisame and get back to his black brother to complete his body.  I guess until now Madara was not informed that Kisame has already been defeated by Killerbee.  Zetsu had no choice but to obey Madara, proving that he is the true leader of Akatsuki.

On the other side, Kakashi warned Naruto again that he should be responsible to fight Sasuke, but Naruto objected.  He said that now he is CERTAIN!  Very strong words, so let’s break down what he meant.  Naruto seems to be aware that Madara was there to take Sasuke out from the battle, but he requested that he say a few words before they leave.  Madara was helping out Sasuke to get up and retreat but Sasuke said, “wait” he knew that Naruto was approaching him to say something and he would want to hear it.

Naruto and Sasuke both looked into each other’s eyes. Naruto started by stating the time where they had fought in the valley of the two statues where the 1^st Hokage and Madara fought.  Back then, Sasuke told Naruto that when two TOP CLASS NINJAs fists meet, they could instantly read each other’s mind.  This was the reason why Naruto provoked Sasuke to go hand in hand in battle while the Chidori and Rasengan fists met.  Naruto’s purpose was for their fists to meet and this was to give Naruto the answer that he was looking for.  By this act, he could feel that would be hidden in Sasuke’s heart.  And Naruto succeeded, he now understand a LOT more. 

Naruto announced that now that both of them have now become top classed ninjas and asked Sasuke if he saw what was really in Naruto’s heart and feelings.  He asked if Sasuke saw what will happen if they fight again, all of the people around them awaited for this answer, both curious and scared.   Naruto announced that both of them WILL DIE.  He said it with confidence, no fear and acted that it was a real fact. 

Naruto volunteered to keep the burden of his hatred, that they are destined to fight and he will be the first one to protect Konoha in case he attacks it.  Sasuke was quiet all this time but he then angrily muttered this words “What is wrong with you and why does Naruto care about him so much”  a question that he could really not comprehend after all these years and after all of what he has done.   Naruto simply answered with a smile “BECAUSE IM YOU’RE FRIEND”  Even Sasuke was taken aback from Naruto’s answer.  He was not sure to believe him this instant or still in disbelief that Naruto did not change. 

Naruto was wise enough to understand the complex side and attitude of Sasuke.  That the only way of communication with him is through fighting and fighting with their fists, and hopefully understand each other.   Our hero Naruto, after all of other people advices and explanation of Sasuke’s crimes, he still hasn’t given up the thought that he could save Sasuke.  Laughing out loud, he said that even if they die and they wont be Jinchuurukis and Uchicha, at least they would understand each other.  Sasuke replied that he would not die and he would kill Naruto. 

Kakashi stepped in and reminded Naruto that he should be the one to battle Sasuke, that he should live on to become Hokage.  But Naruto refused, he said it made no sense to be Hokage if could not save one person.  He said firmly and seriously, that he only person to fight SASUKE , IS HIM!

Now what happens next chapter, I guess, Madara will continue to retreat with Sasuke or they still continue to talk some more.
