Video Description for Nov. 14 Manny Pacquiao VS Miguel Cotto LIVE AND FREE STREAM
I will air the show here for free on Nov. 14, 2009. This is going to be a live stream for all you Pacquiao or Cotto fans.rnrn------rnrnThis maybe the last fight of boxing champ Manny “Pacman” Pacquiao before he goes on his political carrier and attempts to become the congressman of Sarangani province, Philippines. The fight is scheduled on November 14,2009. Links from different live coverage will be provided at this site. Be sure to come back and support your fighter.rnrnStory:rnrnMANILA, Philippines - It took a 15-minute phone conversation with Bob Arum for Manny Pacquiao to agree to fight Miguel Cotto in November.rnrnAt 145 pounds flat.rnrn“It’s done,” said Pacquiao’s adviser, Mike Koncz, over the phone last night, sounding happy that the Filipino pound-for-pound champion has finally come to a decision on whom to fight next.rnrnKoncz was scheduled to leave for Los Angeles last night to meet with Arum and discuss the final details on the fight contract which has yet to be signed by the 30-year-old superstar.rnrn“No contract has been signed but Manny and Bob had a verbal agreement. And we’ve never backed out of any verbal agreement so Bob is happy with that for the time being,” said Koncz.rnrnPacquiao was busy shooting a movie when The STAR tried to contact him last night.rnrnNegotiations for Pacquiao’s next fight took a sudden twist last week when Shane Mosley, the WBA welterweight (147 lb) champion, said he’s willing to fight the Filipino at 140 lb, and get 40 percent of the purse.rnrnCotto, the WBO welterweight champion, had insisted that he’d only fight Pacquiao at 145 lb, and not a fraction lower than that. This gave Pacquiao some doubts on whether he’d take the Mosley challenge instead.rnrnPacquiao’s lawyer, Franklin Gacal, said they wanted Cotto to drop down another pound or two, but now that everything’s been agreed upon, it’s time to focus on Cotto.rnrnKoncz did not say what made Pacquiao seal the deal with Arum, the legendary promoter and master negotiator.rnrn“Manny had a personal phone conversation with Bob Arum the other night and it lasted 15 minutes. Some adjustments were made and Manny has agreed to fight Miguel Cotto,” said Koncz.rnrn“They resolved everything. They talked for about 15 minutes,” said Koncz.rnrnPacquiao had wanted his next fight staged on Oct. 17 but Arum, who also owns the promotional rights over Cotto, said that would run against the World Series schedule, and pushed the date to Nov. 14.rnrnThe extra month will also give Pacquiao ample time to finish all his previous commitments, incuding two movies he has to make, probably another string of commercials, some business deals and more time with his family.rnrn“The extra month gives him all the time to finish all these. And by holding it in November, we want to maximize the dollars,” said Koncz.rnrnThe Canadian ring adviser did not elaborate on what the adjustments and agreed upon between Pacquiao and Arum although certainly it had to do something with the economics.rnrn“But we don’t want to discuss that,” said Koncz who expects the fight contract to be sealed, signed and delivered soon.rn

PHL bet Capadocia upsets top seed, gains quarters berth in ITF jr circuit
Filipino bet Marian Jade Capadocia pulled off the biggest surprise Thursday—pulling off a 6-1, 6-1 upset over top seed Kanika Vaida of India in the International Tennis Federation (ITF) Junior's Circuit Week 1 tournament at the Rizal Memorial Tennis Center.
Capadocia joins compatriots Filipino-Vietnamese Tamitha Nguyen and Maika Jae Tanpoco in the quarterfinals.
“I didn't expect to play very easy against her,” said Capadocia, who gained a 4-0 lead in both sets and didn’t look back. “I’m sure (Friday's match) will be tougher. I have to prepare.”
Britain's Eden Silva, a 6-0, 6-0 winner over Russian Anna Iakouleva, will be Capadocia's quarterfinals foe.
Nguyen posted a 7-5, 6-2 win against Taiwanese Ya-Hsuan Lee while Tanpoco outplayed Russian Anna Grigoryan, 6-2, 6-0, to claim a quarterfinals seat. <B>— JVP, GMA News</B>
