thursday 1 Posted November 15, 2010 Author Share Posted November 15, 2010 He did it. World Champion in 8 weight classes. Quote: Inside of the ring it was another standout performance by Pacquiao, who was in complete control as he dominated the action with his elusive movement and blinding speed. The combinations that came from the 31-year old were too much for Margarito, who appeared to be seriously hurt in the 4th round by a stinging body shot. As the bout progressed the Tijuana brawler’s right eye began to close, further adding to his frustrations. Despite being outclassed, Margarito was still game and had success in the middle rounds as he bullied Pacquiao to the ropes and slugged away with hammering shots. But it wasn’t meant to last as Pacquiao regained control in the 7th and began to turn the tide of the fight soon thereafter. In rounds eleven and twelve Pacquiao appeared to carry Margarito, opting to slow the action instead of inflicting any further damage. With the victory Pacquiao improves his record to 52-3-2 with 38 knockouts and spoke to HBO’s Max Kellerman about his future. “I can’t believe it,†Pacquiao gasped of his effort against Margarito, who outweighed the General Santos City fighter by 17 pounds (165 to 148) by the time they entered the ring. Pacquiao confirmed that he didn’t expect Margarito to be so strong and he had the look of a man who had put in a very hard day’s worth of work. Speaking on his future, Pacquiao said that he isn’t considering retirement despite his newfound duties as a congressman in the province of Sarangani in his homeland. Pacquiao said that he still feels strong and that he should be able to put on at least a few more performances. Margarito gave Pacquiao credit for the victory and said that he knew beforehand that Pacquiao’s speed would be a challenge. The three-time champion said that he never considered halting the fight in the late rounds despite all of the punishment he was taking, pointing to his Mexican pride as a reason for being able to cross the finish line. Now the conversation will turn to a fight between Pacquiao and undefeated Floyd Mayweather Jr., a match that has had the boxing world on pins and needles for the past year. As intriguing as a clash as it may be, the fight seems less and less likely to come off as the Las Vegas-based fighter has a pending legal trial to handle this coming January in relation to an altercation with his ex-girlfriend who claimed he assaulted her in front of there three children. Mayweather is being charged with various misdemeanors and charges of coercion. If found guilty he could be facing up to 34 years in prison. Link to post Share on other sites
