Another big boxing event will be happening this August 22, 2009 at Toyota Center. The fight will be broadcasted live on HBO’s Boxing after dark at 9:45 PM ET. The Undisputed Lightweight World Champion and hometown hero Juan takes on former 140-pound world titleholder Paulie “Magic Man” Malignaggi of Brooklyn, New York will be featured in the main event. The co-featured match sees ham-fisted Robert “The Ghost” Guerrero dares for a world title in a second weight class when he takes on IBF Junior Lightweight World Champion Malcolm Klassen.
I have seen these guys fighting in the ring with courage and will to dominate each and every fight. The Magic Man had a frustrating loss before to the Hitman Ricky Hatton and was disgusted with it. This was indeed the turning fight between Pacquiao and Hatton. People failed to remember, Malignaggi’s right hand was always injured through the route of his career making it really fragile the more he fought, and as you can see during the fight his right hand had no power to hurt Hatton. Watching that fight again, Malignaggi wasn’t the old relentless style fighter that he was, but a left hand one handed jabber fighter the whole fight and rarely brought out his brittle right hand on the table. Can he now sustain the power of Juan Diaz who has loss previously to Juan Manuel Marquez? Diaz said that Malignaggi is a slick opponent and it is a good test for him and he is confident that his fans in Houston behind him will give him more courage to win the fight.
The Vice President and General Manager of Toyota Center Doug Hall said that they are delighted to welcome back HBO and Golden Boy Promotions for another classic night of boxing in Houston. It is also known that the Houston fight fans have given their overwhelming support and cheers to boxing in general. The management is indeed honored that Golden Boy has asked the center to participate in yet another great night of boxing.
Let us wait and see this fight together for this will going to be another spectacular night of boxing.
