Manny Pacquiao’s 11th-round knockout of Marco Antonio Barrera last weekend at the Alamodome surely will go down as one of the more impressive performances by a fighter this city has ever seen.
In the end, the little Filipino fighter with a license to thrill won over the pro-Barrera crowd and left a lasting impression.
