“Any news from Manny Pacquiao – Juan Manuel Marquez III promotional tour?” inquired Big Steve while assaulting a heavy bag at the Y in Glendale.
Global tour to promote the final chapter of a historic trilogy between Manny Pacquiao and Juan Manuel Marquez found its way to the City of Angeles where media only press conference was held at the opulent Beverly Hills Hotel earlier today. Top pound for pound pugilist, Manny Pacquiao will defend his WBO Welterweight title against his long time rival, undisputed lightweight champion, Juan Manuel Marquez. The historic battle is set to take place at the Mecca of boxing, MGM Grand Garden Arena in las Vegas and will be televised live by HBO’s PPV.
“It’s going to be a good fight on November 12th,”said Manny Pacquiao from the podium.” Because this is the answer of all the doubts for the past two fights with Juan Manuel Marquez. I improved a lot on my style and I will do my best for the happiness of the people.”
I don’t know whether it is a pressure of a long promotional tour or the fact that Manny is getting tired of listening to Juan Manuel Marquez say that he won the first two fights, but normally soft spoken and friendly, Manny Pacquiao got a little edgy after the press conference. It seems like their third encounter is getting personal.
Marquez should consider himself lucky if he lasts 6 rounds against Manny Pacquiao.
