It’s all over! Juan Miguel Marquez prevailed over Manny Pacquiao when he knocked out the Filipino pride with a sixth-round hard-hitting punch, causing the latter to fall face-first on the canvas.
Am I happy that Marquez won over Pacquiao? Of course not. I’m a proud Filipino through and through and would really want fellow Filipinos to win each and every competition. And I seriously doubt there’s one Filipino who would support Marquez over Pacquiao. JuanMa has my respects but I’m Team Pacquiao all the way!
However, I’m a realist and a good sport too. Marquez won that fight fair and square so you’re not going to hear me complain about it. While I’m not happy with the result, it’s something that I can wholeheartedly accept.
Rather than happy, I actually relieved because quite frankly I have grown tired of the Pacquiao-Marquez face-of. I’ve had enough of them so I’m glad this 4th outing came out with a result so decisive nobody would feel cheated.
Ahhhh, finally, it’s over. Or is it?
