Filipino boxing idol and people's champ Manny Pacquiao is set to fight Boxing Golden Boy Oscar de la Hoya in a Dream Match on December 6, 2008 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. Pacquiao remains undefeated in a series of high profile fights abroad already. But he admits that this Dream Match is his toughest so far, as not only is dela Hoya a worthy opponent, but that Pacquiao also needs to gain weight in order to reach the Welterweight Division. Dela Hoya vows to avenge the Mexican boxers that went down because of Pacquiao's fist. Pacquiao is the current World Boxing Council's lightweight king. Boxing watchers predict that this will not be an easy fight. Both parties have advantages and disadvantages. Dela Hoya is 4 inches taller at 5 foot 10, but Pacquiao has the advantage of being younger and more agile. He is 6 years junior at 29 years old. If ever, this will be De La Hoya's farewell fight and Pacquiao's biggest ever. Who do you think will prevail? Will you bet on this match?

I am proud to be a Filipino and although I am a supporter of Manny I think that dela Hoya has the edge of winning because of his body built and his experience in boxing. I just hope Manny wins, he did give the Philippines a legacy in the boxing field, but one thing that I want him to do is to keep his feet on the ground.
