18: Dublin, Ireland, Rendall Munroe v Fabrizio Trotta (European super-bantamweight).
Really excited about De La Hoya vs. Pacquiao, should be a big match, and its pretty personal seeing as how Pacquaio has had to move up divisions just for the fight. De La Hoya's probably the favourite, but I think it could go either way.
Hopefully Khan can bounce back from the embarassing defeat against Prescott and fix up his glass jaw. Fagans a step back so I'm predicting a win for Khan.
Thoughts on the upcoming matches, or boxing in general? Discuss.
RESULTS
5: Dagenham, England, Paul McCloskey bt Colin Lynes by ninth-round stoppage (British light-welterweight).
6: Las Vegas, USA, Manny Pacquiao bt Oscar de la Hoya by eighth-round retirement, Juan Manuel Lopez bt Sergio Manuel Medina by first-round stoppage (WBO super-bantamweight).
Nottingham Arena, England, Carl Froch bt Jean Pascal by unanimous decision (vacant WBC super-middleweight).
ExCel Arena, London, England, Enzo Maccarinelli bt Matthew Ellis by second-round KO (non-title heavyweight), Amir Khan bt Oisin Fagan by second-round stoppage (lightweight), Martin Rogan bt Audley Harrison on points (non-title heavyweight).
De La Hoya/Pacquaio was indeed a good match. I thought Hoya would be at the advantage because he's from a higher weight division but Pacquaio really used his pound to pound punching skill to his advantage, which paid off. I guess that confirms Hatton/Pacqiaou, and retirmenet for De La Hoya.
Good for Khan to make a comeback, after his defeat against Prescott. Fagan tried similar punches but it seems Khan's learnt a bit more about defense. But they really should start pairing him up with bigger opponents if he wants to go for the World title.
