Pacquiao Vs Diaz Live

Few hours from now, the much awaited boxing match between our very oen boxing superstar, Manny “Pacman” Pacquiao and David “Dangerous” Diaz tagged as “Lethal Combination”. Of course, I’m hoping Pacquiao get the WBC (World Boxing Council) Lightweight belt, his fourth title. If he gets lucky, he will be the first Asian to win the four titles in different weight division.

The match will not be titled as “Lethal Combination” if David Diaz will give his title easily. David Diaz won Chicago Golden Gloves four times and the National Golden Gloves three times (1993, 1994 and 1996 National Golden Gloves light welterweight champion)with boxing record of 36 fights and 34 wins. Well, I’m sure Diaz know that Pacquiao is known for being a “Mexican Killer”. For sure, I’ll be posting the boxing result tomorrow. I will be watching the boxing event at Mandalay Beach Resort and Casino in live stream again.

Manny Pacquiao Aims For Lightweight Title

Watch out for the coming boxing match of boxing superstar Manny “Pacman” Pacquiao versus 31 year old Mexican-American David Diaz, the present WBC (World Boxing Council) lightweight champion on June 28 at Mandalay Bay Resort, Las Vegas, Nevada.

August last year, David Diaz won the boxing match against Eric Morales in defense of his title. This time, Manny Pacquiao is aiming for the WBC Lightweight title which will make him the “first Asian boxer to win four world titles in three different weight divisions”, and he will also be the First Filipino World Lightweight titlist.

Manny Pacquiao’s titles:
1st – WBC (World Boxing Council) Flyweight from Fahsan 3K Battery
2nd – IBF (International Boxing Federation) Super Bantamweight from Lehlohonolo Ledwaba
3rd – WBC (World Boxing Council) and The Ring World Super Featherweight title from Juan Manuel Marquez
4th – Pacquiao’s target: WBC Lightweight title

Taking consideration the data I gather, I guess this would be the greatest boxing match or should I say “the finale” of Pacquiao’s boxing career. Let’s just hope for the best. Go, Manny!

Manny Pacquiao Wins Over Marquez

The much awaited boxing rematch of Manny “Pacman” Pacquiao vs Juan Manuel “Dinamita” Marquez, The Unfinished Business, their unfinished business is finally “finished”. Ciara Sotto sang the Philippines’ National Anthem, too bad that they’ve mispelled her name as “Sierra” Sotto.

That was a close fight with Manny “Pacman” Pacquiao won over Juan Manuel “Dinamita” Marquez by split decision. Pacquiao won by 3 points, 115 points over 112 points of Marquez. There are other rounds that Manuel Marquez have more points than Pacquiao.

Highlights of the boxing event:
Round 1: The boxing started with Pacquiao and Marquez both agressive where Pacquiao wants to steal the WBC Super Featherweight Title from Marquez. Marquez earned points on round 1.

Round 2: Pacquiao did received solid right punches from Marquez, he almost fell when hit by one of this punches. Marquez won 2nd round again.

Round 3: Pacquiao might be angry and become too aggresive and hit Marquez that made him knocked down. lol The crowd is cheering for Pacquiao. Points for Pacquiao now.

Round 4: Marquez wants this round to be his round but no to avail. Pacquiao won again the round.

Round 5: Marquez showed that he recovered from his knockdown to this round and earned points over Pacquiao.

Round 6: They were fighting away from each other. It seemed they were waiting or looking for the right timing to punch. I guess, this round goes to Marquez for his combination punches.

Round 7: Unintentional headbutt made the upper right corner of Marquez’ right eye bleed.

Round 8: Pacquiao’s right eyebrow bleed and continuosly bleeding til the end of the game. He had the hard time seeing Marquez but he didn’t gave up. The host said, he was literally blind on his right eye. Indeed a filipino pride.

Round 9: Marquez targeted Pacquiao’s right eye, and successfully made it. In the middle of the round, referee call for a small break because Marquez’ right eye was bleeding again.

Round 10: It was shown that Pacquiao’s eye was bleeding from under and over his right eye. People are shouting and cheering for this round. Adrenalin rush from the boxers and the crowd.

Round 11: A classic match of a puncher and a boxer. Marquez combination wasn’t as snappy as the first rounds.

Round 12: It was the last round, naturally they are both agreesive. Pacquiao did have the hard time coping with marquez boxing strategy, but he did his best.

Summary:

Congratulations, Manny Pacquiao! The new WBC Super Featherweight Champion and the first Asian WBC Super Featherweight title holder!
