Manny/Marco Undercard Progress

haha thats kyla if ur in phillipines u cant get her laid by paying 4grand

 

Marco looked cautious in the first, and while Manny was patient, he looked like Manny, particularly in the last half of the round.

 

Not much damage or offense, but I scored it for Pacman after 1

 

 

Manny needs to let those hands go, and he did a better job in round 2 than the first.  Barrera countered well in round 2, but then again, defense isn't what he does.  If anything, Pacman has shown a little too much deference and not enough of the wreckless offense I love him for.

 

He did do it in the last 30 seconds, and clearly won the round, though without hurting Barrera much.

 

Drink up

First damaging punches from Manny in the 3rd round.  Some nice straight lefts, and he backed Marco up against the ropes early.  Barrera is a little hestiatnt and Manny is leading with heavy lefts now.

 

More action than the first two rounds here.

 

If Marco doesn't mix it up more, he'll get beat 119-109. 

Barrera's corner told him he's winning 3-0.  They're full of crap so far.

 

It's not the war that the first fight was, but it's picking up pace as we go

Manny looks emboldened.  He's letting the hands go, and we've had our first war-like exchange.  Pacquiao is both faster and stronger, but Barrera continues to fight tactically.  If he holds to this plan, it goes the distance and he loses badly.  If he battles, he's got a shot, but he also might get knocked out.

 

 

40-36 through 4 Pacman

AMAZING exchange from the 1:10 to 50 second mark.  Barrera may have gotten the better of than exchange, but it was an awesome moment that energized the crowd.  The last minute was classic, and Manny got better as it went on.  This is what he does best, and it's another round he won.

 

Good stuff.

I agree Fullbrights.  Marco's corner told him not to trade.  He can't win any other way, and he can't win that way either it looks like.

More of the same - it's 6-0 after 6 for Pacman. When Marco wants to exchange, he gets hit MUCH harder than he lands.  When he wants to jab, it's a slow death. 

 

There was a good exchange near the 1 minute mark, but Marco can't handle that stuff at this stage of his career.

 

 

 

 

Larry Merchant, in all his drunken senile wisdom, has a 1 point lead for Pacman after 6.  Merchant has him up 5.  I've got it at 6.  I haven't seen a round you could POSSIBLY score for Marco, and i'm trying.

 

the KO betters need to worry, but if you've got the win bet, i'd feel good.

Unders not OK.  There hasn't been the cummulative damage that would get a fight stopped.  It's dominating, but not damaging so far.

anymore updates????

There goes the under, it continues to be a washout in rounds won, but the KO looks VERY unlikely

Nice exchange in the 11th, though only long enough to make you wonder what this fight might have been.

 

Wait, it's getting really good till a HORRIBLE head butt by Barrera.

 

DRAMA

Point taken from Barrera for that - though for a moment it looked like Pacman was genuinely dazed, then pissed.

 

 

 

Into the 12th now...

Another clear win round for Pacman - and Marco succeeds in his effort to SURVIVE his final fight, while giving himself no chance to win.

 

With the point deduction, I've got it a whitewash at 120-107.  I saw no round in doubt and nothing to give to Marco even if trying.

 

Drink up from Marco, cause he's done.

 

 

sweet, thanks for the updates
