Karkadann Games previews “Pound for Pound” video game
starring Manny Pacquiao
Las Vegas, May 6, 2011: Karkadann Games, a world-class gaming studio recently launched by Abu Dhabi Media, today announced the upcoming release of its new action adventure video game titled “Pound for Pound” Volume 1, centred on Filipino boxing champion Manny Pacquiao.
The timing couldn’t be better: joining the ranks of the greatest fighters of all time, and currently rated as the ‘number one’ pound-for-pound boxer in perhaps history, Manny Pacquiao is also one of the most recognizable and most well liked athletes in the world today.
Created for a casual gaming audience, and developed for PC, mobile, iPad, iPhone and Facebook, “Pound for Pound” Volume 1 takes gamers through narrative arcs, intense action and addictive game play, as Manny the martial arts action hero battles through the underground world of heinous villains on a mission of justice. Gamers not only wield Manny’s legendary combination of pummelling punches, with his lightning fast hands, but also a full arsenal of kicks and martial arts weaponry. Additionally, players will be able to customize and develop Manny into the ultimate mixed martial arts defender to fight hundreds of the most infamous enemies on a high-stakes fight.
“We are extremely excited about the launch of this new series”, said David Ortiz, General Manager of Karkadann Games. “Our game captures Manny as a true action hero – with the will power, determination and resilience unique to Manny. We wanted to celebrate a great athlete and complete fighter and provide an entertaining game experience for his millions of fans. On that foundation we built a fast-paced, graphically stimulating action adventure experience with immersive gameplay. We can’t wait to share our vision with Manny’s fans and gamers around the world”, added Ortiz.
In just five months after its launch, Karkadann Games has positioned itself as a world class developer and publisher of games for both Middle East and international audiences by pursuing original and engaging titles. “We are proud of the premium titles we have already produced and are confident that Karkadann Games will be a key driver in the future of the gaming industry”, concluded Ortiz.
“Pound for Pound” Volume 1 video game will be released this summer.

Jeff Lacy Signs to Fight MMA Champion Nick Diaz
Posted on | May 6, 2011 | No Comments
| May 6, 2011 – The hottest fighter in the mixed martial arts landscape right now is Stockton’s own, Nick Diaz. He is currently riding an 11-fight win streak and has been mentioned as a potential super-fight candidate to face-off against UFC welterweight champion George St. Pierre at the end of 2011.
Due to the structuring of Diaz’s contract with MMA outfit, Strikeforce, he is in a unique position where he can contractually pursue a professional boxing career in addition to his mixed-martial arts title reign. While rumors of opponents such as former champions Fernando Vargas and Roy Jones Jr. have been floated around, neither man’s team solidified a contract with the young champion. A few moments ago, former IBF super-middleweight champion & devastating knockout artist, Jeff “Left Hook” Lacy, officially signed on the dotted line to square off against Diaz in the Fall of 2011. Lacy possesses the type of dangerous punching power in both hands that can end the double digit win streak of the rugged Northern California champion. Don Chargin states, “This is a very dangerous fight for both men. Not only is this fight dangerous but stylistically it is very intriguing. I expected more resistance from fight fans and media in regards to this match-up, but it’s amazing as to the hundreds of calls and e-mails I’ve received from fans on both sides wanting to see this match-up take place. I’ve received more than a few inquiries from some other very high-profile boxers that want to step up and fight Nick. Its been a real whirlwind.” Chargin continues, “I’ve been around boxing for quite some time and I’ve seen a lot of great, tough fighters in my six decades within the sport. I believe that if Nick had been one of those kids who had picked up boxing from a youth, he’d undoubtedly be a world-champion today. Sometime within the next 2 weeks I’ll be personally making the trek to Cesar Gracie’s gym to setup a private, closed door sparring session between Nick and a few nameless top-level contenders I have in mind.” Can Jeff Lacy refocus his career to regain the once promising glory that lingered at his fingertips just a few short years back? Can Nick Diaz’s granite chin withstand the devastating punching power of arguably the hardest punching 168-pound fighter on the planet? These questions will definitely be answered before the end of 2011 as the fight titled, “Breaking History” is fairly self-explanatory. |

We’ve tweaked my training, we’ve changed it a little bit for this fight, Daniel will be able to see how much we’ve changed it tomorrow.
I’m gonna do what I have to do. Because the last fight was so close I’ve changed my training, I’m still doing the same things but I’ve added new dimensions and it’s these that are making me feel so confident.”
Daniel Cadman, “Just can’t wait to get in there, to be honest I just want to put the record straight.
Last time we fought I thought I’d won, a lot of people thought I’d won, so I’m going to put the record straight really.
The shows called Redemption Day, so hopefully there will be redemption and I’ll get a good win.
