If all the recent heavyweight “championship” bouts have left a bad taste in your mouth, you will get a chance to restore your faith in boxing Saturday night when the top two featherweights in the world battle in Las Vegas, Nev.
In what should be considered the featherweight championship, World Boxing Association and International Boxing Federation champion Juan Manuel Marquez (42-2, 33 KOs) will put his belts on the line against Manny “The Destroyer” Pacquiao (38-2-1, 30 KOs). The bout will be televised on HBO from the MGM Grand Hotel and Casino.
