Ok, for today, let’s have a bit of boxing. Unfinished Business- that’s how we call the rematch of Manny Pacquiao and Juan Manuel Marquez. At 10 am, the Filipinos will once again be glued to their respective televisions, or movie theaters to say the least, to show their unwavering support to the people’s champ. The boxing match takes place at the posh Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Aside from the World Boxing Council super featherweight championship belt, is the vacant Ring magazine super featherweight diadem and the distinction of becoming the undisputed best 130-pound fighter in the world. Should the pride of GenSan succeed, he will join the ranks of Oscar De La Hoya, Sugar Rey Leonard among others to win in four weight classes.
It would be remembered that Pacquiao and Marquez’s first meeting four years ago resulted in a split draw. Ciara Sotto will be singing the Philippine National Anthem.
