Pacquiao Beats Marquez: Fight Highlights [VIDEO]
Click Here - To watch highlights of the bout between Pacquiao and Marquez!
Manny Pacquiao is still the World Boxing Organization welterweight titleholder after a points victory over Juan Manuel Marquez, albeit controversially, in Las Vegas.
The result was reminiscent of their last meeting in 2008.
After 12 grueling rounds of a closely fought encounter, the Filipino fighter can consider himself lucky after two of three judges ruled in his favor. The third was unable to separate the two.
With both fighters adopting a victory pose, after the final round, Marquez was in disbelief as was the capacity crowd at MGM Grand arena, when Pacquiao was adjudged victor by both Dave Moretti and Glen Trowbridge, despite a strong finish from Marquez. Robert Hoyle couldn't draw a line between the two.
The enraged crowd threw whatever they could onto the ring, making their feelings clear.
They had a point.
