Majority rules again for Manny Pacquiao Champion scores a narrow and controversial (what else?) decision over Juan Manuel Marquez in their third matchup. http://www.latimes.com/sports/la-sp-dwyre-pacquiao-marquez-20111113,0,2621603.column In fact, most in the sold-out crowd of 16,368, as well as quite a few on press row, thought he had lost. It was a good 15 minutes after the fight ended before the crowd stopped booing and hissing. To many, the pound-for-pound best boxer in the world was outboxed by Marquez, at 38 his senior by six years. Marquez not only stayed with Pacquiao in a heated pace for all 12 rounds, but he seemed to get the best of whatever flurries the two managed in their nonstop jiggling and dancing and feinting. Seldom before in boxing has there been a scene where a highly popular champion[b] gets booed loudly and raucously[/b] during his post-match interview. Nobody could hear a word of what he said, and nobody seemed to care. They had seen what they had seen. |
