He may have no choice but to fight Pirog. I wonder if the Barker thing might have made him a little gunshy about taking on top contenders while...
he sounds more like a nutritionist/fitness type than a proper coach/trainer. It would be like having Alex Ariza as your coach. Cotto is going to...

He does. Which is shocking considering he's only been speaking English for three years or so whereas Pacquiao has been speaking English for over a...
There weren't three seconds left after the fight resumed. Look at the clock when Bute goes down. He can't have been down for "10 seconds" as...
