George St. Pierre wins over Jake Shields


The reigning and defending pound for pound king in UFC George "Rush" St. Pierre successfully defends his title over his top challenger Jake Shields. The fight showed that St. Pierre was as vulnerable as any body inside the octagon. As Jake Shields wounded the face of the welterweight champion. It was a 5 round title fight and both fighters came to win at there will and determination. In the first round St. Pierre connects with accurate shots that made Jake Shields confused were those shots were coming from. But on the second round Jake Shields tries to connect with his own accurate jabs and punches. Some how landed and find it's way to hurt the champion St. Pierre.

Now that St. Pierre had his left eye swollen and on the later rounds his nose would bleed and blood will come out. It's a matter of survival for the champion on how he will survive and defend his title. But on the later rounds St. Pierre remained focus even on a left blurry eye vision he still kept his phase and composure. And somehow find his rhythm and combo to hurt Jake Shields that cause a wounded and swollen right eye of the challenger.

St. Pierre would also connect on head kicks that landed on shields making him crawl on the canvass. But would get up and use the octagon to recover from the absorb hits that St. Pierre made. As the fight comes to and end St. Pierre would survive the fight and would retain his title as the welterweight champion.

And on the interview he explained that he did not expect that Jake Shields striking would be so accurate and precise. And his bloody left eye would give me problems in seeing the attacks of his enemies. And somehow he was not impress on how he was performing inside the octagon for he was looking to finish the fight with a TKO or a submission.

George St. Pierre Vs Jake Shields


Pound for pound king in UFC George "Rush" St. Pierre will go up in the ring to face Jake Shields in UFC 129 happening on May 1, 2011. St. Pierre will be tested again as he will defend his title and honor once again inside the octagon. Will St. Pierre add another W in his record will it be a tapout or a Knockout. No one knows and this is a very exciting match between both fighters. On the other hand his opponent Jake Shields is very determined and ready to beat the number one welterweight champion St. Pierre.

While on the under card fight another hall of famer will step in the ring as Randy "The Natural" Couture will face a great fighter Lyoto "The Dragon" Machida. As Randy will try to extend his records as a hall of famer and will defy his age inside the octagon. Randy is facing one of the best light heavyweight contender. While Machida is facing a Hall of Famer and we know how explosive Randy Couture can be.

And will this be the end of Machida's losing streak since he lost 2 straight fights now after he lost his light heavyweight belt to Mauricio "Shogun" Rua via Technical Knockout in the first round.

And for Randy Couture will his winning streak continues making it to 4 wins? or will Machida stop his streak and add another loss to couture's record.

This will be one of the most unforgettable UFC fights that I will be watching since the under card fighters are also good and interesting to watch.

Manny Pacquiao creates another history for 8Th world Title



Manny Pacquiao proved to be the best fighter that he can be after demolishing Antonio Margarito of Mexico. Pacquiao Captured his 8th world title in different weight divisions and with this success the pound for pound king do not have to prove anything and no "IF" are attached as a doubt.

From the start of the round as each fighters try to measure and feel each others presence. And after the first round were in both fighters felt the individual auras of there opponent. Manny Pacquiao seemed to be ignited and unleashed his fury. Margarito would throw 2-3 punches while Pacquiao on the other hand throws his own combinations of 5-6 combos or even more.

Power punches most of them as they try to tear down Margarito's face. Antonio Margarito on the other hand tried his best to stay in tack in the fight. But Pacquiao's speed and adrenaline was all over him. From all angles Pacquiao launched powerful punches that accurately hit Margarito. Pacquiao's fury was indeed relentless as he continues to punish and beat Margarito.



Margarito's right eye would start to swollen and bruise. As it starts to swell badly after every round of beating. Margarito was being punished and battered from every exchange and every combinations of Pacquiao. All Margarito can do is take those pain as he tries to land some combo of his own.

In round 6 Margarito cornered Pacquiao on the ropes that eventually poured some good punch and powerful combinations. Margarito even hurt Pacquiao after landing a big body shot. Pacquiao admitted he got lucky in round 6 to survive Margarito's comeback. It was clear that Pacquiao got stabbed badly as his body reaction was clear.

Margarito also landed serious punches that made Pacquiao flee and retreat. But as if Manny wants revenge on those punches he got and in every opportunity Pacquiao gets he just rained some huge volume of punches. Margarito's defense were sometimes useless as his arms and guard will be broken by the series of punches Pacquiao gives.

On the later rounds Manny Pacquiao would turn his head and look at the referee. Pacquiao's purpose was to signal Laurence Cole and ask confirmation to look at the condition and status of Margarito. Pacquiao understood that Margarito is having troubles in seeing and continuing the fight since Margarito's right eye had a tiny daily and its was like gonna be closed and shut.

But instead the referee would continue fight and Pacquiao understood the situation and had pitty on Margarito. Finishing the 11th and 12th round Margarito's face was on obsolete form and it looked viscously destroyed.

A unanimous decision was claimed by all 3 judges and in favor of the pound for pound king Manny Pacquiao. Good job on Pacquiao this was one of the best fights I have seen on his entire career. And hopefully the Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather Jr. bout will come to reality and happen soon. Probably next year 2011 it will be settled.

Predictions for Manny Pacquiao vs Antonio Margarito fight.


The fight that will lure a lot of people and boxing fans are just days away from happening. And some great boxing experts try to see and predict the said fight. But here is my own predictions of the coming fight this November 13, 2010 in Dallas Texas cowboy stadium.

1.)It will be a slug fight between Manny Pacquiao and Antonio Margarito. In the first round probably no knockout will happen as each fighter will start to recognize and measure the moves of there opponents. The knockout will come in the later rounds starting from round 2-10.

2.)If Margarito will start make his aggressive move then Pacquiao will definitely as deadly as he can be. Just like in the Miguel Cotto bout were Cotto got hit by a blinding punch from Pacquiao. Cotto did not expect to be hurt and eventually got counted by the referee.

3.)Margarito will try to corner Pacquiao and then he will pour all of his offense and take advantage of this height and size.

4.)Pacquiao will also try to use his foot work and speed to evade and counter punch Margarito the moment they will exchange blows.

5.)If Margarito can have a one shot combined with timing,accuracy and force then he can knock out Pacquiao. But if Pacquiao can control the fight then his dominant arsenal will destroy Margarito and it will be a bloody fight for both fighters.

6.) Speed will dictate the fight were Pacquiao has it as his asset. If he can unleash those lightning punches then Margarito is in big trouble and Pacquiao will win by a TKO.

I am not an boxing expert and all this predictions of mine are just the fruit of my own analysis and understanding.
