As most have expected, Manny Pacquiao won the fight against Antonio Margarito over the new WBC Super Welterweight Championship at the Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, Texas earlier.
Antonio Margarito's rangy puncher and brawler stance was no match against Pacquiao's speed and strategy. Figuratively speaking in the boxing sports, Pacquiao's fist was left, right, and everywhere. At 5’11 and with a 73-inch reach, Margarito's huge size advantage over the 5’6” Pacquiao proved no advantage at all.
However, Margarito was not knocked out as most expected from Pacquiao's fist.
Nonetheless, the whole country of the Philippines in Southeast Asia is in cheers of their boxing hero in this Pacquiao-Margarito fight.
Pacquiao's training of waking up at 6am to run, sprint, do core exercises, and ballistic training among others did not fail him; of course with Coach Freddy Roach
Indeed, the Pacquiao-Margarito fight was worth watching. So, do we finally see a Pacquiao-Mayweather Jr. match soon? :)
