Beverly Hills, CA:- World?s present best pound-4-pound boxer and concurrent WBO Welter Champion Manny ?Pacman? Pacquiao (53-2-2, 38KO) and his challenger from Mexico, WBA Lightweight champion Juan Manuel (Dinamita) Marquez (53-5-1,39KO) faced off moments ago at the Crystal Ballroom of the famed Beverly Hills Hotel along historic Sunset Boulevard just a few miles west of downtown LA.
The meeting was the third of the four promotional tours being made by the duo for Top Rank?s Promotion?s huge fight card at the MGM Hotel at Las Vegas on November 12th that will show case the third meeting of the two warriors. Their first fight was a draw and the next one was barely won by Pacquiao. The third meeting will once and for all determine who truly is better- Pacquioa or Marquez.
The promotional tours started at the Luneta Grandstand in Manila last Saturday followed by one at the Chelsea Pier in New York last Monday. The fourth and last one will be in Mexico City at the end of the week.
