Las Vegas, NV:- This town eagerly awaits the big fight on Saturday, December 8th at the Events Center of the famed MGM Grand Casino Resort.

Manny ?Pacman? Paquiao will tangle for the 4th time with the dynamite from Mexico City, Juan Manuel Marquez.

Who do you think will this 4th episode between the two HOF-bound fighters?

The Mexicans and Marquez of course strongly feel that they will raise the red, white and green flag up high after the fight.

But Pacquiao and his fans think otherwise. It will be a fight to end all doubts, so Pacquiao said last week at the LA Media Day.

Be that as it may, PhilBoxing.com will be there to cover every little bit of turn of the events leading to this weekend and beyond.

Representing the now world-class boxing website will be Panama-born writer/photographer and top-notch businessman Carlos Costa.

Also arriving all the way from New Jersey to assure fight fans and PhilBoxing readers more diverse coverage of the fight is up and coming feature writer, Rich Mazon, RN.

Costa will be in Vegas very early Tuesday so as to unwind properly prior to his big job and also cover the ?arrival? of the Pacquiao and Marquez at the MGM while Mazon will be flying in on Wednesday in time to cover the final presscon at the Hollywood Theater of the MGM.

The two top-notch writers will be sending reports as early as Tuesday afternoon and all through out the week and a day or two after the fight.

Their reports will oftentimes be accompanied by photos from yours truly who will be roaming the MGM as well as from a special designated spot at the Events Center during the actual fight night.

During the fight week and the actual fight night, PhilBoxing fans are requested to browse the site for up-to-the-minute reports. Being a ?boxing portal?, reports and press releases from other sources will also be available on the site.

Snippets of what?s happening in Vegas and during the fight night particularly during the undercard fights will also be available on Twitter @Mouthgrds4Champ) courtesy of MouthguardsFor Champions.
