LAS VEGAS — Manny Pacquiao looks to solidify his claim as the best 126-pounder in the world Saturday night when he meets WBA and IBF featherweight champion Juan Manuel Marquez at the MGM Grand Garden Arena.
A hard-hitting southpaw, Pacquiao (38-2-1, 30 KOs) is widely considered one of the premier fighters in the lower weight classes. The 25-year-old Filipino is coming off his most impressive victory as he dominated former champion Marco Antonio Barrera on Nov. 15.
