THE “BIG” FIGHT IS OFF, BRING ON FOREMAN!


PhilBoxing.com




It was refreshing that they finally put an end to the Mayweather charade! It was just too much and it became boring listening to the chatter coming from Team Mayweather. After all, how much non-sense can one take?

While people wanted to see Mayweather prove that he is no windbag and take a fight with Manny Pacquiao, nothing can be done about it as Mayweather has finally showed his real color. He knows he has met his match and he refused to fight.

Chicken!

Too bad, he had a small chance to prove that he is the best. But in all honesty, if he took the fight, he will find himself staring at the lights after he awakes from the nasty knock-out Pacquiao will deal him.

Mayweather is fully aware of that, thus he refused to fight!

End of story.

So let’s just ignore the guy and move on with the Filipino spitfire against the next best fighter out there.

Bring on Yuri Foreman!

Although many do not like to see Pacquiao move up again to challenge yet another “bigger man”, a fight with the nice man from New York can prove to be exciting. And, it may well be a big money fight too.

Without doubt, it will be history in the making. If Pacquiao wins his 8th weight-class title, he will set a new record. A record that Mayweather will never achieve even in his dreams.

Foreman is naturally bigger than Pacquiao. That alone makes the fight interesting.

Without question, boxing fans will see the brilliance of Freddie Roach once again who without doubt will fashion a game plan with the same results as the Pacquiao fights with Diaz, de la Hoya, Hatton and Cotto.

Another advantage is Foreman is a Top Rank fighter. Negotiations will be a piece of cake.

Not only that.

Foreman is a nice young man who would not make excuses like Mayweather. He will just get himself ready for the task and defend his crown to the hilt.

Most importantly, there will be no trash talk and cheating at the scales like you know who.

Then there is the Jewish connection.

Israel has never had a world champion and thus it make sense to note that they will go out and support their man. No, they will not be breaking any beer chugging records at the arena, but they sure can be as loud as any fan for than matter.

Having to fight a bigger and taller opponent, Pacquiao and Roach will be up to their necks to keep the fight competitive.

It will not be easy because Foreman has what it takes to keep his crown. He has shown that he has the necessities to make that happen.

Thus the fight will be exciting.

I venture to say, it may even be exciting than a fight between Pacquiao and Mayweather because the latter will just run around all night and not engage Pacquiao. He does not like his “pretty face” messed up.

Foreman will not do that. He is a proud champion and he will stand his ground thus producing a fight that will satisfy the need of the boxing fans in terms of excitement.

Okay, Bob Father, it’s your move.

Bring on the Rabbi-to- be and lets get on with the fight!
