WHAT do you expect when two hard-punching boxers with a combine record of 63 knockout victories mix it up atop the ring in a blockbuster fight?
If you know you’re boxing, it is going to be war. Such is the description of the coming bout between Filipino gladiator Manny Pacquiao and Mexican hombre Juan Manuel Marquez for the World Boxing Association (WBA) and International Boxing Federation (IBF) featherweight title on May 8 at a still an undisclosed venue.
Pacquiao, the consensus people’s world feather champ, and Marquez, the two-title holder, will carry into the ring impressive records and boxing analysts this early predict a knockout win for either of the two.
Marquez, 30, holds the more excellent record of 42 wins, two losses with 33 KO’s.
But Pacquiao’s numbers are within such range: 38 wins, two losses, one draw with 30 of his triumphs not lasting the distance.
