  1. manny pacquiao

    1. best pound 4 pound boxer

    2. mexican legend killer (morales, barrera and marquez)

    do i have 2 say more... lol


  2. Pacquiao won because of that knock down he gave to Marquez early round

  3. PEOPLE! JUST ACCEPT THE FACT THAT PACQUIAO WON THE FIGHT AND YOU CAN'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT! ALL YOU CAN DO IS ARGUE THAT GOES NOWHERE. PACQUIAO WON. PERIOD.

  4. Very close fight.

  5. Well, I think it sucked. Pacquio cheated with an intentional headbutt and then grinned about it. Sure Pacquio is fast and has a good left but other than that he stinks.

  6. Manny Pacquiao won a controversial split decision over Juan Marquel Marquez to take the WBC super featherweight title after an absorbing 12-round bout, shown live on Setanta Sports.

    Pacquiao (46-3-2, 34 KOs) won two cards 115-112 and 114-113, while Marquez (48-4-1, 35 KOs) took the other 115-112 at the Mandalay Bay Casino in Las Vegas.

    After the first fight that many felt Marquez edged despite being awarded a draw this decision seems harsh on the Mexican fighter.

    It gives Pacquiao a triumvirate of victories over future hall of fame Mexican fighters after he previously beat the legendary Erik Morales and Marco Antonio Barrera.

    Marquez largely controlled the first two rounds with his superb boxing, but the third round saw Pacquiao land his big shots and put Marquez on the canvas with a picture perfect left hook. He could have been awarded a second knockdown as Marquez was rocked and made to sit on the ropes in the closing stages of the round though in typical style from there he came back with a big shot of his own.

    Just like the first fight, Marquez showed remarkable resilience to recover from a bad round and from the fifth onwards he began controlling the bout more catching Pac Man with straight rights.

    In the seventh a clash of heads gave both fighters nasty cuts above the eye and in the eighth it seemed Pacquiao who was suffering more, blinking visibly when he got caught with a straight right but it was the Mexican’s bodyshots that were affecting Pac Man more in his best round of the fight.

    The ninth saw the bout turn around once more with Marquez’s cut forcing the referee to get the doctor to look at his eye.

    It seemed like Marquez would have to look for a knockout in the tenth but as he came rushing out of his corner Pacquiao caught him flush with a looping left hand that the Mexican did well to stay on his feet from.

    Marquez came back with a better 11th round and with Pacquiao seemingly lacking the fitness to fight for three minutes a round, perhaps due to struggling to make the weight, the Mexican seemed to edge the last round also, despite the Phillipines fighter catching him with a couple of right hands.

    The result could well lead to a third meeting between the two warriors, though Pacquiao has previously declared that this would be his last fight at 9st 4, so boxing fans may well wait until Pac Man challenges lightweight champions Nate Campbell or David Diaz.

    At 34, time is not on Marquez's side but the evidence of this fight suggests he is a long way from being finished.

    WBC lightweight champ Diaz (34-1-1, 17 KOs) did not impress in a majority decision win in a ten-round non-title bout with journeyman Ramon Montana (15-5-2, 1 KO) on the undercard, with wildly varying scorecards 99-91, 97-93 and 95-95.

  7. LOL....ohh well, complains....complains....complains....j... look at the records of those defeated by PACQUIAO, no doubt they are all the BEST.... just accept the decision of the judges....PACMAN won....
