Pacquiao Wins Majority Decision Over Marquez

LAS VEGAS (AP)—Manny Pacquiao was taken to the limit Saturday night before escaping with a decision win over Juan Manuel Marquez in their welterweight title fight.

Pacquiao won on two scorecards, while the third ringside judge had it a draw. It was a narrow escape for the Filipino congressman, who took as much punishment as he got over 12 rounds.

The third fight between the two was as close as the previous two, and by the time they finished 12 rounds, the outcome was still in doubt. Pacquiao won some rounds with sheer aggression, while Marquez won others with brilliant counterpunching, keeping Pacquiao from getting inside.

Marquez was a 7-1 underdog, but it was clear early he would be in this fight.

Pacquiao-Marquez: Round-by-round recaps

It is fight time for our main event. Technically it is for the WBO welterweight title, but in reality it is like all great trilogy fights, fought for the championship of each other. This should be great.

Round 1

Marquez looks a lot bigger than when he fought Mayweather. The strength and conditioning obviously worked better this time around. They're feeling each other out in this first round with Pacquiao proving patient and Marquez relax. They circle and threaten each other. Pacquiao probably landed the more hurtful blows but could be given either way.

10-9 Pacquiao

Round 2

Very tactical round with Marquez trying to counter Pacquiao's flurries and keep the champion off balance. Both showing tremendous respect for each other's power, not willing to step inside the pocket for too long. Marquez doing well to move away and avoid taking significant damage when Pacquiao comes forward. Marquez connecting with the jab, and bringing the right hand in. Toward the end he starts letting the hands go with some nice uppercuts and a big right hand. Pacquiao tries to become more aggressive but gets clipped by a big right hand at the very end.

Marquez's round. 19-19.

Round 3

Pacquiao flicks the jab out to begin with, moving in with an unsuccesful flurry. Marquez lands an uppercut as Pacquiao comes in. Pacquiao is perhaps guilty of trying to force the fight, which leaves him open to Marquez’s superb timing. Marquez putting together a good combination, twice combining a body hook with a straight right. Marquez is doing a great job of stepping back and making Pacquiao miss. Pacquiao lands a couple of right hands towards the end of the round but Marquez is able to counter. Very tactical fight and you have to think that favors Marquez .

29-28 Marquez

Round 4

Marquez flicking out the jab at the start of the fourth but Pacquiao comes in with some hard fast punches. Pacquiao looks like he's moving up through the gears. Marquez misses with a couple of darting punches from distance. Pacquiao is throwing more than in the previous round but he's not landing much at all due to the superior footwork of Marquez. The Mexican is doing well to counter the bull rushes of Pacquiao. This is superb boxing from Marquez. Marquez puts together a flurry toward the end that ends with a right hand that rocks Pacquiao. The upset may be on the cards here.

39-37 Marquez

Round 5

Pacquiao starts by flicking out the jab but they're landing on the gloves. Marquez responds with some great shots to the body. On the British commentary, Amir Khan rightly says Marquez is doing a great job keeping the distance. He snaps Pacquiao’s head back with a straight punch. Marquez is just making the key movements to make Pacquiao miss. Again he connects with the jab and then ducks under a wild punch from Pacquiao. They both land at the same time. Pacquiao triyng to be more aggressive but Marquez is standing up to the champion well. Marquez again closes the round with a nice combination. Pacquiao is looking one step and one punch behind Marquez at the moment.

49-46 Marquez

Round 6

Marquez's defense has been iron-clad in this fight, with his guard up tight and his footwork being just perfect. After getting some straight rights in, Marquez spends most of the round working the body of Pacquiao. Midway through they both connect as Pacquiao comes back strong. The champion is having his best round of the fight so far. He’s pushing Marquez back, and landing the right hand more. However, too often Pacquiao throws wildly and misses, whereas the tight work of Marquez is getting through albeit in a less eye-pleasing way. Very close round but I’m leaning to Marquez who had the more consistent offense throughout the round.

59-55 Marquez

Round 7

This has been a very close, tactical fight so far and that and the slower than expected pace surely benefits Marquez over Pacquiao. The champion starts brightly but is then caught hard by a straight right of Marquez. Pacquiao ineffectively comes rushes in, opening himself to some wonderful counterpunching of Marquez. Pacquiao is looking for powerpunches rather than setting up up with body punches or jabs. Pacquiao seemingly hurts Marquez with a left hand but Marquez comes back with some very good combinations. Marquez ends the round with an uppercut. Another round for Marquez on my scorecard. Again its close but Marquez is edging it consistently.

69-64 Marquez

Round 8

Cagey opening to the round with nothing of note thrown in the first minute. Pacquiao rushes inside but he’s once again head hunting, not working the body at all. Marquez counters well, and its yet another exchange where the Mexican warrior outsmarts and outsrikes his Filipino adversary. Marquez again lands a smart right hand, he really is boxing beautifully. Pacquiao is just rushing onto Marquez’s counters. Pacquiao lands a big one-two to end the round but even then Marquez counters.

79-73 Marquez

Round 9

Marquez lands another right hand at the start of the round. Pacquiao rushes in and misses, rushing into the ropes. Marquez countering well. Pacquiao is looking very confused, just throwing wildly and missing by miles. Marquez is keeping his cool, working the body of Pacquiao and outworking the champion. Towards the end they get into some excellent dog-fights towards the end of the fight, with Pacquiao finding the fire to really put Marquez under pressure. While Pacquiao's aggression looked very impressive he didn't actually land anything so I give the round to Marquez.

89-82 Marquez

Round 10

Pacquiao looking a lot better than in the previous rounds, putting Marquez under real pressure. Pacquiao finally starts working the body, forcing Marquez to take a knee after landing a crunching body hook. It is however ruled a slip by the referee. Not sure I agree with that. Pacquiao strangely doesn't continue to target the obvious chink in Marquez's amour and instead resumes headhunting. He does however manage to dictate the speed of the fight, with the tempo of the round being far faster than the earlier rounds. Pacquiao round.

98-92 Marquez

Round 11

Given American judges preference for aggression over smart countering may mean that the scores at ringside are closer than man but Pacquiao certainly needs to put in a big two rounds to secure victory. Pacquiao really turning it up now with the champion unleashing ferocious flurries on his rival. However again Marquez is able to counter, landing beautifully clean punches while moving away from the danger. The pace drops down in the final minute with Marquez effectively countering Pacquiao's increasingly wild lunges. To me that's another Marquez round.

I know this sounds silly but I genuinely have it 108-101 to Marquez. I am not joking nor have I been given a bribe by Marquez's management team and family.

Round 12

On my scorecard if Marquez can make it to the end of this round then he’s got the victory he so desired. Incredibly, Marquez is the one on the offense, with Pacquiao unable to put together the offense and blast out Marquez as he needs to. Marquez is fighting tidy, not offering Pacquiao any opportunities for the crunching knockout blow he needs. With 30 seconds left they break to put Pacquiao's mouthguard back in. Right to the end Marquez is the one landing first.

Superb performance. Incredible. An absolute clinic from Marquez on my scorecard. I have it 118-110 to Marquez. Even Pacquiao’s training partner Amir Khan has Marquez as the victor.

The judges have it 114-114 and 115-113, 116-112 to the winner and still world champion Manny Pacquiao.

Completely disagree with that decision. I am aware there were a lot of close rounds and so my 118-110 may have been lopsided, but Marquez put on an absolute clinic tonight. The Vegas fans let Pacquiao know what they think about the decision, booing Pacquiao and chanting Marquez. A disgusting call.

Manny Pacquiao defeats Juan Manuel Marquez via majority decision 114-114, 115-113 and 116-112 to retain his WBO welterweight title



















Source: Yahoo News




Filipino boxing star Manny Pacquiao edged Mexico's Juan Manuel Marquez by a majority decision, stretching his win streak to 15 with a narrow verdict in a thrilling fight.

Two judges gave Pacquiao, pictured, the victory by margins of 116-112 and 115-113 while the third scored the fight a 114-114 draw.

But the outcome prompted a chorus of boos from Marquez supporters so loud that Pacquiao's post-fight comments into a microphone could not be heard.

Pacquiao, who has not lost since 2005, improved to 54-3 with two drawn and kept his World Boxing Organization welterweight title while Marquez fell to 52-5 with one drawn despite an electrifying performance.

In some ways, the outcome did little to settle the score of a rivalry that has seen the Asian southpaw win two close decisions after their first fight ended in a draw.

Marquez raised his right hand in victory after the final round, only to be denied yet again. He said he felt he won his two prior fights with Pacquiao, a 2004 draw and a 2008 rematch decided by one point on one judge's scorecard.

 Prediction About this Fight

Less than 24 hours to go, and the biggest fight of the year will start. I am thinking of what will be the outcome of this fight after the 3rd time in the ring. Some sports analysts said that these two fighters are very well prepared compared to the first two fights they had years ago. This is because they know each other, they know what the other can do for him.

In my opinion, if Pacquiao will not KO Marquez before the 12th round, then Pacquiao will still remain the winner via split decision and Marquez will suffer from much pains and punches. I can't imagine how Marquez will look like.

However, in favor of Marquez, if he will win then it will be via unanimous decision, never KO Pacquiao in any rounds, and he will have the difficulty in getting the fight to the 12 rounds.

These are just my predictions and I am open for any suggestions and comments, just put it below. If I like your prediction then I will edit this post and put your opinion here.

Pacquiao Vs Marquez Will Be Best

Manny Pacquiao vs Fight Juan Manuel Marquez for Third Time in November

November 12 WBO Welterweight champion Manny Pacquiao takes on Juan Manuel Marquez , it won’t be the first time these fighters have seen each other in the ring.

These fighters have met two previous times, with the first ending in a controversial draw and the second ending in a controversial win for Pacquiao.



In both fights, Marquez showed that his style of fighting matched perfectly with Pacquiao’s, and if it wasn’t for a few knockdowns, Marquez might have won both fights.

Some fight enthusiasts, including me, see Marquez as the perfect kryptonite to Pacquiao’s superman because he has shown in the past that Marquez can match up physically and mentally with Pacman.
While Pacquiao has been making the rounds beating up the seniors of the welterweight division (Shane Mosley), Marquez defeated Juan Diaz twice, Michael Katsidis and Joel Casamayor, and he looks to tame the Pacman beast.
With the first two fights being as exciting as they were, the general hope is that this third bout will go down in history as one of the great final fights in one of the best trilogies in boxing history. A must See Trilogies .

Manny “Pacman” Pacquiao True Story (Video), How Did He Started?

You might want to watch the following video showing the so called “true story of Manny Pacman Pacquiao” with his Mommy Dionisia as one of the lead character of this video. Watch it first before you react.






Here is another one Steroids and Manny Pacquiao TV Ads/Commercial (Video). I just want to share it here so that at least while we’re waiting for the d-day of the Pacquiao vs. Mosley fight we’ll just smile with this video. Its funny how Pacquiao handle sensitive issues like this. This only mean that the issue on PEDs (performance enhancing drugs) on Pacquiao is just a useless crap that is raised by a coward opponent who’s protecting his face from inevitable defeat and not really a big deal for the Filipino champ.

Pacquiao Cuts His Long Hair to Prepare for Training

Manny “Pacman” Pacquiao’s hair style was one of the eye catching highlight of the last press conference in the U.S. His look was even compared to Justin Bieber’s hair style which he denied and even said that he got this looks from his idol “Bruce Lee.” Well, all of this “hair issue” ends today when he decided to cut his hair as preparation for his training for the upcoming Pacquiao vs. Mosley fight on May. This is what he did on the first day of his training in General Santos City, Philippines after he played basketball.
 
Meanwhile, Pacquiao’s adviser Michael Koncz confirmed that Team Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather Jr.’s camp are discussing the possibility of the Pacquiao vs. Mayweather and it seems that there’s a real great chance the dream fight will happen.
