Pacquiao vs. Morales!

[flipcritic]

Some of you may know that basketball is our (the Philippines) number 1 sport, but boxing is also as revered. And Manny Pacquiao is pretty much a god back home (no equivalent to what Americans have today in sports). The whole country stops to watch him fight.

That said, I'm in Malaysia and have no access to the fight. Anyone know where I can find a play-by-play (or round-by-round)?
