Por Los Que No Tiran La Toalla



I just dropped Champ's car at A & M Auto Repair at 859 N. La Brea Avenue and walked towards Pink's Hot Dog where Champ is supposed to pick me up after his bowling game at Jewel city. On a wall, I found a newly posted poster in spanish for the upcoming Oscar de la Hoya and Manny Pacquiao boxing match at MGM Grand Las Vegas Nevada. First time I saw this one and I'm posting it here for everyone to see.

Here's what they think of the fight: "The Dream Match"

Pacquiao is scheduled to face Oscar De La Hoya on Saturday, December 6, 2008 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, Nevada. Presented by Golden Boy Promotions and Top Rank, Inc., the bout will be a 12-round, non-title fight contested at the 147-pound welterweight limit. Although Pacquiao goes into the fight widely recognized as the leading pound-for-pound boxer in the world, some boxing pundits have speculated that 147 pounds could be too far above his natural weight against the larger De La Hoya. Many boxing analysts believe the fight will favor De La Hoya, and consider the fight a mismatch due to De La Hoya's size advantage. Bets have already been taken with De La Hoya as the heavy favorite.
