Pacquiao-Marquez III: Juan Manuel Fights for Redemption
Like many of his fans, Juan Manuel Márquez believes he should have won his previous fights against Manny Pacquiao.
"I think we haven't had the results," Marquez told Fox News Latino after a recent workout. "It hasn't gone the way people expected it and the way the judges saw the fight and how we expected it to be."
In their first match-up in 2004, Márquez was knocked down not once, but three times, only to battle back and go the full 12 rounds against Pacman.
Despite his efforts, the judges saw the fight differently and scored it a draw in their first meeting back. During the rematch in 2008, Márquez was once again knocked down early but fought from behind.
At the end of the match, however, the judge gave the win and Márquez’s Super Featherweight belt to Pacquiao, despite CompuBox statistics saying that Márquez landed more jabs and power punches than Pacquiao.
