Headline One: George Foreman, Manny Pacquiao – The Aftermath
The world was stunned when on August 15th 2005 “Big” George Foreman announced his latest comeback and what made this even more shocking was that George was coming back at a 130 pounds and taking on Manny Pacquiao once Hector Velazquez dropped out of their September 10th 2005 fight.

Headline Two: Wladimir Klitschko – “Mentón de Piedra” (Chin of Stone)
