Review: 2004-05-08, Manny Pacquiao came from the first fight against Barrera (one of the Fights of the Year 2003) and tried to win his first title in the featherweight division since Juan Manuel Marquez was the reigning champion of the WBA and IBF featherweight titles. In the first round Manny Pacquiao surprised Marquez knocking down him three times, all thought the match was over but instead the fight ended after twelve rounds with a controversial draw (Harold Lederman scored the fight 115-110 for the Filipino). Manny Pacquiao entered the fight with a record of 38-2-1 while Juan Manuel Marquez had a record of 42-2-0. Watch the video!

2011 BOXING fight – Takahiro Ao vs Devis Boschiero – full fight Video WBC title
Review: 2011-11-06, balanced fight but not good for eight rounds but from the ninth Devis Boschiero surprisingly has more energy than the defending champion Takahiro Ao, the Italian wins the latest four rounds but inexplicably two judges give the win to the Japanese. Takahiro Ao (21-2-1) entered as the No.3 super featherweight in the world while Devis Boschiero (29-0-1) entered as the No.59 (but after this fight, even if the Italian lost it, he is ranked No.19, probably someone noticed the error of the judges). Takahiro Ao vs Boschiero was valid for the WBC super featherweight title. Watch the video!

2011 BOXING fight – Peter Quillin vs Craig McEwan – full fight Video
Review: 2011-11-05, boring fight between the undefeated Peter Quillin and Craig McEwan: one stars. “Kid Chocolate” Quillin defeated McEwan by TKO in the sixth round but the referee stopped the fight too soon (McEwan had never been knocked down during the fight).

2011 best BOXING fight – Alfredo Angulo vs James Kirkland – full fight Video
Review: 2011-11-05, Kirkland starts strong but after 28 seconds of the first round he is already down, so Alfredo Angulo tries to end the fight throwing a lot of punches in the second minute of the fight but James Kirkland survives and comes back in the last minute of the first round knocking down “Perro” Angulo! Then the fight goes on but we don’t want to unveil the result of the bout… We don’t believe that Kirkland vs Angulo could win “Fight of the Year” honors but it could be a candidate for “Round of the Year” thanks to the amazing first round. Alfredo Angulo (20-1-0) entered as the No.2 light middleweight in the world while James Kirkland (29-1-0) entered as the No.49 middleweight. Angulo vs Kirkland, semi-final eliminator for the WBC light middleweight title. Watch the video!
