His KO of Ricky Hatton was also nominated in the Best Play category which was awarded to the touchdown from Roethlisberger to Holmes to win the Super Bowl.

Manny Pacquiao is really a great fighter! I have managed to talk to one of the young boxing fanatics from UK. Actually before the fight with Hatton they know that their bet has a high chance of lossing but they never thought to lose so fast in a fight! They know Pacquiao is from GenSan and even more about Pacquiao they knew more than what I knew about him even if I am a Filipino. By that conversation with the Britons I was very happy that they have recognized one of the great fighters from Philippines!
