The Battle of East & West: Pacquiao vs Hatton



Hours from now, people are waiting for the boxing match of our very own Manny "Pacman" Pacquiao and Ricky "Hitman" Hatton at the MGM Grand hotel-casino.

Everything is set, as the final weigh in was over this morning. Pacquiao, known as the "Pambansang Kamao" and the pride of the Philippines, tipped the scales at 138lbs while Hatton, the pride of Manchester, England and wanting to take away the number 1 pound-for-pound honor from Pacquiao, tipped the scales at the limit of 140lbs.

Dubbed as East meets West, the Pacquiao vs Hatton fight is the biggest and the most anticipated boxing event of this year 2009. They will be fighting for Hatton's Ring Belt and IBO Light Welterweight Belt.

I can't wait to see if Manny can continue his magic or if Hatton will cut the streak...
