Pacman vs Hitman. The shortest fight I've seen in my life.

Though some of you probably don't watch boxing, its pretty big here in the Philippines. The streets were silent today, as Manny Pacquiao and Ricky Hatton started the shortest fight I've seen in my life. A mere 5:50 minutes into the fight, Pacman did a left hook and that was it. Two rounds, three knockdowns on Hatton and a left hook finished the fight. I jumped like and cheered like a crazed bull like everybody else watching it but I wished it could have lasted at least five to six rounds like the De La Hoya fight last year, but it was cut short thanks to that hook. Well, post your opinions on the fight here.

Great fighter.

If this was the shortest, you need to go to the archives for most of Tyson's 'fights'

I believe that Rocky Marciano knocked an opponent out in a title fight in the first round which would be less than three minutes. Can't remember his name, not Ezzard Charles, it was Jersey Joe Walcott. Sorry, I was wrong, LOL, was I ever wrong, it was the 13 th round.
