The atmosphere was electric in the MGM Grand Arena following Manny Pacquiao's historic, 12th-round TKO of WBO champ, Miguel Cotto. With the victory, Pacquiao became the first boxer to win titles in seven weight divisions.

Throughout the promotion leading up to Saturday night's mega-fight between challenger Manny Pacquiao and his champion fighter Miguel Cotto, trainer Joe Santiago's reputation has taken a verbal beating from his counterpart, Freddie Roach.

A Hall of Fame cornerman whose hopes to guide Pacquiao to an unprecedented, seventh world title in a different weight class, Roach has taken shots at Santiago's relative inexperience.

But during Wednesday's press conference at the Hollywood Theatre at the MGM Grand Hotel where Saturday night's clash will be held, Santiago stepped up to the podium and carried himself the same way that he has throughout the fight's buildup.

With a confidence, a calm demeanor, a calculated speech and, ultimately, control.

George Foreman was 28 fights into his comeback from a 10-year absence from the ring, had won 27 times, stopped 25 of his opponents, and failed during his first attempt at winning a heavyweight title.

But Foreman wasn't going to blow his second chance at world championship glory, when he faced southpaw Michael Moorer.

This time, the 45-year-old grandfather and father of nine was ready.

Foreman, 60, talks about his historic accomplishment as well as life after boxing during this, the fourth and final installment of a four-part series detailing how he became boxing's oldest man to win a division's crown.

Fernando Montiel will defend his WBO bantamweight title against Z Gorres, and Eric Morel will take on Gerry Penalos on Feb. 13 at the Las Vegas Hilton, promoter Bob Arum told FanHouse on Friday.

"After that, the winners will fight the winners in June," Arum said of the clash of 118-pounders. "It's like a tournament."

Since losing a split decision to Jhonny Gonzalez in May of 2006, the 30-year-old Montiel (39-2-2, 29 knockouts) is 7-0-1 with four knockouts, including a split decision victory over Gorres in February 2007.

Boxing Star Miguel Cotto (35-and-1) is a hero to many. These days he's getting ready for his November 14th fight against Manny Pacquiao. His skills are impressive and over the years Cotto has taken down some of the biggest names in the sport -- Oktay Urkal, Zab Judah, Shane Mosley and Alfonso Gómez. But when he's not boxing, Miguel is very passionate about his heroes -- the brave men and woman of the U.S. Armed Forces. Cotto goes to military hospitals to visit those who have returned injured from the battlefield. In this FanHouse Exclusive find out what Cotto and Top Rank are doing to help the servicemen, while legendary boxing promoter Bob Arum shares with us why Cotto is so involved. We also hear from Freddie Roach, Manny's trainer.

Boxing promoter Bob Arum scoffed at Floyd Mayweather Jr in an interview with FanHouse's Ariel Helwani last week, saying, "He's just a problem and a head case." In a chat with FanHouse this week, Mayweather claimed he hadn't heard those comments -- and then proceeded to respond to them anyway.

Top Rank founder Bob Arum has never been one to keep his opinions to himself, and when FanHouse caught up with him at the Manny Pacquiao-Miguel Cotto press conference at Yankee Stadium on Thursday, he was in rare form.

The 77-year-old boxing promoter criticized Floyd Mayweather for fighting "scared" and not being an entertaining fighter. Arum also seemed to squash any hopes of seeing a Mayweather-Pacquaio super-fight in the future. But his harshest words were saved for MMA, as Arum said the sport looks like "guys rolling around like homosexuals on the ground" and called MMA fans "a bunch of skinhead white guys." The full video interview is below.

One of the most anticipated boxing matches of the year has become official, as the promoter for Manny Pacquiao and Miguel Cotto announced today that the two will fight on November 14 in Las Vegas.

Pacquiao-Cotto joins Floyd Mayweather vs. Juan Manuel Marquez as one of two fights this fall that have boxing fans salivating, and we can be sure that the promoters and the fighters (especially Mayweather) will engage in some trash talk about which of the bouts is truly the year's biggest fight.
