Ricky Hatton’s Dream Fight: Manny Pacquiao’s Fifth Division Title Fight
The most awaited fight for this year of the Ox is already sure to happen as both fighters has already signed the contract and the formal announcement is already scheduled within the week.
This is a sigh of relief to those who are closely monitoring and following the round by round happenings in the negotiation. As one of those, I was glad and at the same time learned something about Negotiating 101.
I must admit that the decisions made during that period made me realize that the fight is considered 50 percent won by the fighters as it is signed but 100 percent won by fans like me.
By just knowing that the fight will happen brings excitement, expectation, and hope or as Larry Merchant borrowed from President Barack Obama, the Audacity of Hope.
What then is the hope I am looking forward to? Well as we all know, most boxing purist consider this match as the true Dream Match because disparity in size is almost nonexistent.
