Carl Froch has been in fine fettle this week. He had time to talk about Manny Pacquiao, his relationship to Rachael the mother of his son Rocco, his future, and just what it would mean to him to have the WBC supermiddleweight title belt - which he held for 17 months – back in his possession. It will be a rugged encounter with Armenian Arthur Abraham. Firstly, though, Manny Pacquiao. We talked of the Pacquiao v Antonio Margarito contest two weeks ago, and Froch, a warrior himself thought the contest an antidote to what we had seen hours earlier between David Haye and Audley Harrison.

Arum says Pacquiao-Marquez III a hard sell
MANILA, Philippines – Boxing promoter Bob Arum is not likely to favor a third fight between Filipino superstar Manny Pacquiao and 3-time world champion Juan Manuel Marquez, citing the Mexican's lack of marketability.
The Top Rank chief said that although Marquez is an excellent boxer, he said the Mexican champion no longer has good name recall among casual fans. Read More...

Manny Pacquiao's Thanksgiving list
"Thank you for the 'tarkee'!"- A fan was taped on HBO's Dela Hoya-Pacquiao 24/7 show thanking Pacquiao for the turkey he handed out during Thanksgiving of 2008. It's Thanksgiving Day in the US of A and there's no better holiday- other than Christmas of course- for people to give thanks. In the Manny Pacquiao household, there's plenty of thanks to go around. But Thanksgiving Day is an American thing, and with Pacquiao busy with his congressional duties and basking in the glory of his most recent victory thousands of miles away while the biggest turkey in boxing is still avoiding the possibility of being slaughtered and served up inside the ring by boxing's true pound-for-pound king, allow me to put together a list of people in boxing that Pacquiao owes some thanking.

Sergio Martinez Knocks Out Williams: Manny Pacquiao Next?
If a lot of people were surprised last year when an impressive Sergio Martinez lost a majority decision to Paul Williams last year, they must be in total shock today after the Argentinean knocked him into next week in their rematch. The 35-year-old southpaw connected with one of the most devastating punches in boxing history at Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City on Nov. 20. The crushing blow sent the 29-year-old Williams crashing face-first to the mat. The crowd in the arena and millions watching on TV knew it was all over as soon as the typically iron-jaw Williams kissed the canvas because there was no way he was getting up from such a brutal left hand. He seemed to be knocked cold immediately after the punch connected, long before he even started falling downward. Read More... credits: opposingviews.com

Why Manny Pacquiao hasn’t fought a top African-American box
In a perfect world, people are 'color-blind.' But this is America. So to expect sports to be devoid of racial prejudices is unrealistic. It's like asking Floyd Mayweather Jr. to simply fight Manny Pacquiao as he did his previous 41 other opponents instead of asking for an Olympic-style random drug testing on top of all his other demands out of nowhere -- it sounds simple, but there's simply more to it.

Antonio Margarito – Redemption of the heart
By By Ibrar Arshad: After a long time I have decided to write an article again. The reason for my absence is the amount of ignorance I was beginning to see in boxing fans on this website, as well as the poor articles that other authors were posting. Sometimes it’s disheartening to see fans of a sport that I so dearly love, overlook values that every boxer has ever laid out in their careers. Unfortunately a lot of boxing fans have become disrespectful to the sport they claim to love. I have read remarks that are hateful, racist and completely unreasonable. It really has become sad.

Is the Williams vs. Martinez Winner the Next Pacquiao Opponent?
The Paul Williams vs. Sergio Martinez rematch continues boxing's excellent closing session for the year. Conveniently, it's being held just a week after the Pacquiao vs. Margarito junior middleweight title bout, which was contested at a catchweight of 150 lbs. Even more conveniently, Williams vs. Martinez II is also being held at a catchweight, 158 lbs. Considering that both men seem comfortable at the division limit of 160 lbs, and Martinez holds the real middleweight title of the world, it's odd that the rematch would be fought at a weight less than the full division limit. Odd, that is, if you didn't figure that each man was angling for a chance to land the Manny Pacquiao Sweepstakes, and secure a massive payday for fighting the sport's pound for pound king and major attraction.
