After that controversial boxing match with Timothy Bradley, Manny Pacquiao is here again to defend his title for the fourth time against Juan Manuel Marquez. Seriously?!
Don’t get me wrong. But what I see here is just pure money talk. Boxing fans will soon get tired of their never ending rambles just to get hold of that championship belt (or is it the sales revenue?). Well, I think it’s how things work in the world of professional boxing.
Ever since the disappointing Pacman-Bradley boxing match, many people have lost their interest in watching Manny’s fights. Honestly, I do believe on what others say about the “business” thing that happens in pro boxing.
I was a Pacman fan. Way before this guy started making fame his middle name – his amateur skills that led to a rather short pound-for-pound mash ups during his early years. Making many people (including me) amazed with Pacman’s unique abilities as a Pinoy boxer. Surely, everyone would say “wow” to this guy’s fast moves and strong punches. His street fight technique made him one hell of a boxer. But then Manny already made his mark and I think it’s time for a new blood to take over that spot.
The match is set to take place this December 2012 at Las Vegas. Though the question is, will this bout be any different from Manny’s previous fights with Marquez? Or will he regain the trust of his fans after that controversial fight with Tim Bradley? Will he be able to knockout his opponent this time?
