Manny vs. Marquez 1 way back in May 2004 is simply a modern day classic .Manny had just had a stunning win in The previous November, he had shocked Marco Antonio Barrera with an 11th-round TKO to claim the world featherweight championship. Marquez the Mexican boxing technician entered their initial meeting on a 13-fight win streak, having claimed two 126-pound belts along the way. But he had entered the ring with a 24 year old Pilipino banger in Manny at "feather weight" with no respect for Pacmans power to his own undoing! Caught on his way inside with a straight left Marquez was staring at The M g M grand ceiling for the first time .the Mexican would taste the canvass a further two time before he managed to get to the end of the round as Manny was shifting through the gears. Marquez came out in the second round fighting fire with fire and using his fantastic boxing intuition to take Mannys powerfully left away by drawing the Pilipino in and making him fall short, countering with combinations. Marquez then went on to earn a draw by taking the remainder of the rounds and with judge Burt c Clement scoring the first round 10-7 instead of 10-6 for the three knockdowns this gave the Mexican the vital point to earn that draw, if Clement had scored the round correctly then Pac man would of won and we may of never had the following fights.
