The Age of Manny Pacquiao

The odds were against Manny Pacquiao at least when the gambling odds were concerned. They figured Oscar Dela Hoya's height would have been a factor on the fight. After measuring everything, odds makers forgot to measure something, Manny's heart.

Karylle sang, the bell rang, 8 rounds passed and when the 9th round was supposed to begin, Dela Hoya just conceded to a better, younger fighter. 8 rounds of ass-whopping. Manny opened a boxing clinic in Vegas and Oscar was his student.

It seems the end of the road for Oscar Dela Hoya, but just as a boxer. He will still rack in millions in the next couple of years promoting fights and should he co-promote the coming fights of Manny, his loss would be moot. Ricky Hatton now sends messages that he wants Manny next, but so is Juan Manuel Marquez. Sadly Marquez is of no value to Pacquio now, his next couple of fights would be for money. Hence, he will redefine the word prize-fighter. Manny says he's good for 2-3 fights but I believe he can still do 10 more the way he improves his boxing game fight after fight. CONGRATULATIONS MANNY PACQUIAO!
