Well… we all know their fight is today. But I’d like to share with you a few facts and the results of their previous battle (which was a draw) before the whole nation and the world face the boob tube or the internet for this most anticipated rematch between our very own, Manny “Pacman” Pacquiao versus Juan Manuel Marquez for the world title called Unfinished Business
In fact, the match is so big here in the Philippines that the miltary and the rebels even scheduled a ceasefire today.
“Manny is going to knock him out,” Top Rank promoter Bob Arum said. “Manny feels that he has really improved dramatically since that first fight with Marquez and that Marquez has gone backwards.” Via ESPN
