                    [Title] => Will Ramos tolerate Clottey's shenanigans?
                    [Summary] => 

Former US Army boxer Rafael Ramos, a retired sergeant first class, will be the third man in the ring when Manny Pacquiao and Joshua Clottey face off in a WBO welterweight title fight at the Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, Texas, this morning (Manila time). It’s his responsibility to make sure the bout is fair and square.

[Summary] => A Manila defense against No. 3 contender Fahprakob Rakkiat-Gym of Thailand in March could be next in International Boxing Federation (IBF) superbantamweight champion Manny Pacquiao’s agenda.

Pacquiao’s business manager Rod Nazario is in the US negotiating a Home Box Office (HBO) deal to televise the planned bout on the world-wide cable TV network. Nazario’s partner Lito Mondejar says Pacquiao’s purse could be not less than $150,000 – if HBO agrees to bankroll the fight. Nazario is due back in town next week.

The split draw meant both Pacquiao and World Boxing Organization (WBO) titleholder Agapito Sanchez of the Dominican Republic retained their belts. So there were two men left standing, not one.

Ricardo Bays, 53, is from Florida and is exclusively a judge with over 30 championship bouts in his resume.

Steele, 56, is the referee. Hassett, 63, Denkin, 66, and John Keane, 48, of Northants, England, are the judges.
