REVERED Mexican trainer Ignacio ?Nacho? Beristain yesterday authored a sensible analogy in likening the forthcoming showdown between his ward Juan Manuel ?Dinamita? Marquez and Filipino boxing icon Manny ?The Destroyer? Pacquiao to a chess match.
Marquez, the current IBF and WBA 126 pounds king, and Pacquiao, the people?s champion and Ring Magazine title-holder, will collide in a keenly-awaited superbout for the featherweight supremacy of the world to be televised live by HBO on May 8 at the MGM Grand Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada.
