Usain Bolt of Jamaica successfully broke his former World Record in 100m of 9.69 when he successfully finished it in just 9.58 seconds during the 12th IAAF World Championships in Athletics at the Olympic Stadium in Berlin, Germany on Sunday, August 16, 2009.
I accidentally stumbled an article written by Mr. Perez which explains why the writer and other boxing fans and fighters are not impressed with Manny Pacquiao.
Former world boxing champion, Arturo “Thunder” Gatti has been found dead in a room of the hotel in Brazil, this Saturday morning. It was not yet known what really is the cause of the 37-year-old Canadian’s death because there was no bullet and stab wound on his body but just blood stains on the floor, on the back of his head, on his neck an on the strap of the purse of his wife.
Manny Pacquiao along with his family and boxing supports flew to US. According to Manny, he will be attending photo shoot for the Nike Ad along with basketball hardcourt hero, Kobe Bryant, in MGM.
And besides, Manny Pacquiao, Freddie Roach and Bob Arum will also talk about Manny’s fight against Cotto this November 2009.
Mathieu Montcourt who faced 5-week ban from playing tennis in France and fined $12,000 for betting, was found by his girlfriend in his apartment dead.
The cause of his death was still unknown. But after handing the penalty, he complained that the penalty was too worst because he never bet for more than $3 and wasn’t bet for his own matches.But the Court of Arbitration for Sport said Montcourt had wagered a total of $192 on 36 tennis events in 2005.
Tour de France will start on July 4. And everybody is looking for live or internet streaming of what’s happening in the event. I searched the net for any websites that will offer the internet streaming of the event but it seems none is offering.
But here’s few of the sources of updates on the Tour de France 2009:
It is reported that Floyd Mayweather Jr suffered injury while in training.
These news makes most of the boxing fans to believe that the Mayweather vs Marquez fight on July 18, 2009 will not happen. We don’t know if the injury of Mayweather is real but it seems that Mayweather’s camp is not interested anymore to continue the deal against Marquez. Besides, the sales of the ticket for the July 18 fight seems so low.
The fight between Manny Pacquiao and Miguel Cotto will be on November 2009. This is what Bob Arum the boss of the Top Rank Promotion said after Manny Pacquiao’s camp signaled the promoter to go for the fight.
It was reported that Exodus, Mike Tyson’s 4 year old daughter, died on May 16, 2009 in tragic accident.
According to the report, the 7-year old son of Mike Tyson found his younger sister entangled in a cord hanging under the console of the treadmill console. Then the mother called 911 and tried to revive her daughter before the rescue team arrived.
