THIS may be late but I will have to salute Juan Manuel Marquez. His having lasted the distance with Manny Pacquiao was more than enough proof that he really has what it takes to be a champion in two world boxing associations: WBA and IBF.
How many can really survive three knockdowns in the first round? And said knockdowns having been inflicted yet by one so powerful like Pacquiao?
Those punches were nothing but solid, enough to knock down three horses in succession, if not chop down huge banana trunks.
