The Philippine pride, the 8-division world champion and the current pound-for-pound king Manny
"The Pacman" Pacquiao (53-3-2, 38 KO's) is going to face his fearless opponent Juan Manuel Marquez (52-5-1, 38 KO's) on November 12, 2011 at the MGM Grand Hotel, Las Vegas, Nevada. After the unsuccessful negotiation of the Pacquiao vs. Mayweather fight, Pacquiao vs. Marquez 3 takes its place. The Mexican fighter first fought Pacquiao on 2004 that ended on a draw. They fought last 2008 which was decided on a split decision, in favor of Pacquiao. And for the third time, they will test each other's abilities on November 12, at the MGM Grand Hotel. Facing each other for the 3rd time, I am quite sure that this is gonna be a very explosive fight. Seeing on their professional boxing records, both fighters are quite close with each other. Both of them have 38 KO records which is quite unbelievable. I think this bout is one of the most exciting comeback matches on boxing history. This is the fight that we've all been waiting for.
This two great boxers fought for two times in 2004 and 2008. It was judged as controversial draw and a razor thin split decision favoring Pacman respectively. Fans witnessed an epic rumble full of super slug-fest trading of punches, counters and powerful combinations but still have doubts of who really did win those two last fights.
Now, the third act coming its way this November! The fighting pride of Philippines, Manny Pacquiao square-off for the third with Mexican superstar Juan Manuel Marquez in the welterweight division (catch-weight of 144 pounds) to end the controversies and the doubts on the mind of fans and boxing pundits. The fight that is really personal for both pugilists. Who do you bet to win the clash of two great prizefighter?
