Veteran Boxer Marco Antonio Barrera has reigned over the featherweights for years, dismissing all challengers to his crown. IBF junior featherweight champion Manny Pacquiao has cleaned out the 122-pound division in a similar fashion and is looking to do the same at 126 pounds.
On Saturday at the Alamodome in San Antonio , Texas , these two will collide in an epic battle to determine who is truly the best featherweight in the world.
“This is a fight I wanted, not only for myself, but for my fans,” said Barrera. “They know I have always proven myself against the best fighters in the world, and I consider Manny Pacquiao to be in that category. I look forward to retaining my title as the top featherweight in the world on November 15.”
