There is no doubt Manny Pacquiao is the best pound for pound fighter of his generation. His uncanny ability to retain strength and agility even after advancing to a higher weight class is in itself a remarkable feat.

The fight dubbed as "the dream fight" ended up differently for each fighter. De la Hoya's lackluster effort regrettably ended like a nightmare. Battered, embarrassed and badly beaten. While Pacquiao's ended up as a euphoric trance, having completed the trilogy: defeating each great Mexican fighter 1) Marquez 2) Barrera 3) De la Joya.

There's no question where each fighter is headed next. The golden years retirement home is eagerly awaiting De la Hoya's pending arrival. While Pacquiao with his meteoric rise is almost certain for boxing greatness; a place in history among the likes of Ali, Louis, Frazier, Marciano, Leonard, Holyfield, Chavez, and even De La Hoya.

The PacMan has finished gobbling up the best Mexico has to offer. Maybe it's time to travel across the pond to jolly ol' England and enjoy a sumptuous sampling of fish and chips or perhaps an ample serving of Ricky Hatton.

Whenever or wherever that next big fight occurs, I am certain the PacMan will be ready and hungry as ever.
