Will there be a sweet revenge for Marquez this time?

Pacquiao vs Marquez. The most awaited boxing fight of the year is heating up this season.  Millions of people are waiting for the day to come.  To who might win the fight, still it remains a question.  Would it be in favor of Pacquiao?  Or would it be in favor to Marquez this time?

When Marquez and Pacquiao met for the very first time, it was a draw.  But that fight was only the beginning of the heat which was about to burn.  The first fight made the two boxers to crave for another fight.  And indeed, another chance was given to them to prove that in boxing only one man reigns. 

The second fight was set for the fighters to meet again.  Explosive exchange of punches occurred.  Blood’s squirting, eye bags bruising, and pains that were excruciating in their body, every time a powerful punch was thrown.  But when the cry for a reigning champion was roaring, only one man was heard.   And that battle was in favor of “Manny Pacman” Pacquiao.

The first fight was a draw and the second fight was won by Pacquiao.  And with the fame that Manny Pacquiao has in the field of boxing, no wonders that the name and the fame of Marquez in the previous fights were only up to the rumors that he was the winner of those two fights.  Painful as it is for Marquez, but will this bring courage to win this fight?  Will the counter puncher skills, abilities, and capabilities of JMM or Juan Manuel Marquez win over the speed and a south paw opponent Manny “Pacman” Pacquiao. 

PACQUIAO VS. MARQUEZ is in their third chapter.  As Emanuel Stewart, a boxing analyst says “Can Juan Manuel Marquez steal it away from the Drama King of Boxing Manny “Pacman” Paquiao?”.  If he does, then he will be making a loud noise to all the boxing enthusiasts and to the boxing world as well.  This can be a sweet, sweet revenge then for Marquez if he defeats the pound-for-pound king Manny “Pacman” Pacquiao who is at his peak.  Will this fight mark the downfall of Pacquaio?  Or will the pound-for-pound king Manny “Pacman” Pacquiao put an exclamation mark claiming that he is indeed the only pound-for-pound king in boxing?

Who’s your bet?  Who do you think will win this fight?

So, as the embers of fire in boxing continue, let’s mark our calendar for the Boxing Fight of the Year. And together let’s watch to whose determination wins, would that be of MARQUEZ or would that be of PACQUIAO?
