The days of promoting boxing on those old-school posters or with a sign out front of an armory are over. The promotion for this Saturday's Oscar De La Hoya/Manny Pacquiao super fight has ramped up with the HBO critically-acclaimed 24/7 series and Twitter feeds from HBO PPV Sports. Now, there is even a Facebook application called Dream Fight. The cool thing? You can 'punch' your friends in the face.

Here's how it works for you FB users: Sign up and select which pictures of pals you want to pugilize. Beat the hell out of them and it'll send along a note to your friends, giving them the chance to retaliate. What is the nice bonus for this time-waster? You get entered into a contest to win a trip to Vegas for the fight this Saturday every time you fight, and so does your friend.
The deadline to do so though is 11:59 pm tonight, Dec. 2.
Do it now! Kick some ass and maybe win a trip. You're not doing anything this Saturday, are you?
More talk and discussion about the fight coming later this week. It should be a good one!
