On March 15th at the Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas, Marquez & Pacquiao will look to settle the score in a rematch of their epic battle that ended in a draw. The fight will be brought to homes on HBO PPV for a suggested price of $49.95.

 
The day in Beverly Hills saw both Top Rank and Golden Boy get together once again and it was a great day to catch up on plenty of news.
 
Officials from Top Rank told Pound4Pound that they felt a fight between Cotto and De La Hoya seems to be lost at this point and although Golden Boy did not say for sure, it appears their plans for Oscar are headed in a "Prettier" direction.
 

Plans for Cotto at this point seem to be headed in another direction and the speculated bout with Alfonso Gomez is a very distinct possibility.
 
Richard Schaefer also confirmed our report that Marco Antonio Barrera was in town last week and he will be fighting in 2008.
 
Everyone involved with Pacquiao were just happy to have Manny here now and they made sure to let us know that Paq is spending the next eight weeks here in Los Angeles to prepare for Marquez.
 
 
It's also pretty clear that Manny's plans for the year include a fight with Diaz, David that is, and then a move up to 140 pounds to face Ricky Hatton.
 
Tickets for Pacquiao vs. Marquez are still available and can be purchased at www.mandalaybay.com or www.ticketmaster.com  Prices start at $100 and go up to $600.
