I woke up late this morning and it was already lunch time. I thought that the boxing match is already finished, but according to the radio announcer that the match will start in a few minutes. After fixing myself, I fired up my laptop and started to search for best live video streaming of the match in the intertnet. My best hub for information is from my blog friends, Pinoyexchange.com forums and the Yahoo! Sports. So after gathering some information, I shared the link here in my blog, posting a list of live streaming hubs.
- I just viewed a great streaking from onepunch.tk, but after round 1 the video was cut off, but then glad that I got access code for the justin.tv/pinoyapparel and we continue to watch the match there after round 1.
here are some of my feedbacks according to my twitter and plurk posts. ( read more below )
pacman dominates round 1 whohoh. about 2 hours ago from Ping.fm
- I got carried away after seeing that right punch of manny to oscar's left cheek, it was a big blow and it was a good start for the fight, I guess both of them are checking out each others momentum and fighting style. Round 1 is a great start and Manny took the score.
the fight is hot...saw that two blow by pacman to de la hoya's face... pacman is very quick.. round 5 na about 2 hours ago from Ping.fm
- Manny counter punch is very solid, saw that two left punch to Oscar's face, Manny's small size took the advantage for being quick and fast, its a disadvantage already to Oscar's height, Manny uses his body to go close on Oscar's body to shield and get break up from the referee, its a brilliant plan from Manny to use his small height to block and hide his from Oscar's punches and mapping of box style.
ohhhh another blow hits de la hoya about 2 hours ago from Ping.fm
- After that punch..another blow hits Oscar and Manny jogs away after doing some punches.
pacman cornered...in a lock right punch. del a hoya by... dugas! about 2 hours ago from Ping.fm
- I'm very pissed off that Oscar uses his right hand to grab Manny's backhead and punch him many times in the face using his left hand, It was a big trouble to Manny, but he manage to lock away and go to the middle of the ring. I guess Oscar saw that advantage, just to throw Manny out of his speed moves.
dela hoya has wound in the left cheeks... pacman coach said "do not stay near the ring rop" about 2 hours ago from Ping.fm
- During the round break, the tv screen shows both side, Oscar's face is bleeding and it was treated by his team, while Manny receives a lot of advice from his coach telling him not to stay in the corner.
de la hoya is planting his legs in the corner...pacman do the advantage.. about 2 hours ago from Ping.fm
- A symbol that planting your legs and never move an inch means that your body and legs are confused, Maybe Oscar is getting confused on where to block and follow Manny's counter punches, Manny is doing a lot of dancing jumps and shows a very quick moves. A punch to Manny face alerts Oscar to move out of the middle.
round 6 ends.... millie de la hoya shows on the screen... de la hoya's face is beaten.... announcer says he's tired.... pacman no wound ...... about 2 hours ago from Ping.fm
- i was posting this in my microblog and forgot to put the round hahahaha. Oscar's face is badly beaten, it's another sign that he receives a lot of punches from the previous round
round 7...everyone is quite..watching the next punches.. about 2 hours ago from Ping.fm
- this is the weirdest round ever, everyone is quite and waiting for the next move and heat of the boxers. I guess the boxers are resting and charging their energies, I just noticed that they get energized after hearing that 10 sec notice before the round ends.
- Oscar stucked in the corned and Manny took the advantage in throwing all those punches. Every punch landed in Oscar's face and body, which Oscar uses the rope to balance himself and duck down to avoid some more. Manny uses the corner as it was used to him awhile ago.
hoya receives a lot of blows...audience are now standing up about 2 hours ago from Ping.fm
-during that incident, everyone watching in MGM stands up and waited to see if Oscar will fall.
hoya no longer punching...... pacman in the advantage... badly beaten hoya recovers....pacman raises hands.."come on! come on!" about 2 hours ago from Ping.fm
- After seeing Oscar no longer punches, which is weird or maybe he's planning something, Manny throw a lot of blows and after Oscar's beat up and then recovers, Manny raises his hands in the air, it was like saying, come on! come on! fight fight fight! maybe he's doing a cheer up on Oscars and pause for a short second for him to recover, it was a nice break done by Manny and it went into a very fair fight.
round 7 ended.....hoya's eye is badly beaten..... pacman blows in the corner did that about 2 hours ago from Ping.fm
- a view of Oscar's eye got badly beaten and it bleeds a lot, Manny did that during the last 10 seconds of round 7.
hoya cornered again.... about 2 hours ago from Ping.fm
- On round 8, Oscar got cornered again, and it was like Roman Rapido punches thrown by Manny, I think Manny is playing Fernando Poe Jr. punch style, non stop punches given to Oscar on that corner, and after that we saw Oscar's two hands dropping after the break up, means that he got tired or maybe dizzy, still a good sign and an advantage to Manny. After a few break Oscar's energy went up and played mind games to Manny, maybe Oscar is planning something to trick Manny because he throw a lot of punches in the body, waiting for a time for Manny to block it and find a good advantage to throw a punch in the face to Manny.
then Oscar got cornered again, Manny flames up after hearing that 10 seconds notice countdown to end the round 8, it was a fast throw of punches that everyone witness, Manny like to check if Oscar will fall down and later will be saved by the bell.
hoya quits.....pacman won after round 8 about 2 hours ago from Ping.fm
- then during the break of Round 8, Oscar's coach is telling if he likes to quit or continue the match, all bloodied and wounded, Oscar decided to quit because of the bad beat on his face, and a few seconds, a bell rang and Manny's camp jumped in and celebrate the victory.
It was a great match, I thought on the first place that Manny will lose on the fight, because of Oscar's height and largeness might get all the advantage, but seeing them in the real fight shows that speed is the key to this match as Manny said after an interview. Then the fighters faced each other and Manny said to Oscar " you're still my idol", then Oscar said " no, you are my idol" both of them shook hands and hug each other, it was a great fight and victory, and another glory to Manny Pacquiao for bringing another pride to the whole world as a greatest boxer from the Philippines.
