Will Pacman survive against Golden Boy?

Manny" Pacquiao, the Filipino boxing superstar and international boxing superstar Oscar De La Hoya will face each other on December 6,2008 to show to the world who is rightful to be called world boxing superstar.

Some speculations are spreading like wild fire in the internet this time that Manny will have so much difficulty in facing the Golden Boy. The reasons are quite obvious. Manny has a four-inch height disadvantage, he is going up two weight divisions after only one fight in the lightweight category, and he has a shorter reach against De La Hoya.

But with these disadvantages, let us not also discredit Manny's advantage. He is quick, power puncher, and younger than de La Hoya. These if it will be used by Manny to the fullest, then definitely he has the chance to beat Oscar. Let us just wait and see on December 6. But one thing I am sure is that all fans of Manny are praying that he will win the fight.
