PostHeaderIcon Manny Pacquiao - Boxing's New Golden Boy


Manny Pacquiao, the fast and furious Filipino fighter who is considered pound-for-pound the best boxer in the world, is still the sport's top draw.

His easy victory over Joshua Clottey in March raked in 700,000 pay per view buys and $35 million in revenues.

Pacquiao has been on an unprecedented winning streak, including sending Oscar de la Hoya into retirement, beating him so badly that the former Olympic Gold Medalist quit on his stool in between rounds.

The big fight for Manny Pacquiao, against Floyd Mayweather, remains elusive. The two could not agree on terms for pre-fight drug testing and a fight in March between the two fell apart. The fight would likely break all-time boxing pay-per-view records.
