    Hey everyone,

    It's been a busy week but I've gone ahead and used Pacquiao-Diaz to talk about one of the most underrated events of the last ten years. Acelino Freitas' move from 30 to 35 was one of the most unique and diverse career choices in recent memory.

    This is more nostalgic than anything but it's worth a look with Manny's big bout less than a month away. I think the hardcore fans will get a kick out of this.

    Very interesting.. Kudos on the article.. Hopefully he will become a lightweight champion in a division full of talent, and he even has the chance to defeat the best sitting at 140..

    It's his first fight at the weight and a title shot to boot, not bad if you ask me considering his opponent isn't THAT bad.

    I must admit that Freitas took the easier way.

    Thanks everyone!

    Please check back for more in a few days, I dont believe that the general public has interest in this sort of boxing. I would like to continue to write for serious fans such as yourselves.
