Dec. 1st 1995 The Professor looks to take back what was his. Ruelas came in off a ton of grief seeing his opponent die from injuries last fight.

Fight of the day

2012 Manny Pacquiao vs Juan Manuel Marquez

I have never seen it from this angle until today. Sometimes ringside is not the best seat in the house. The reaction of the (Marquez) fan and the complete inability to restrain his understandable elation and keep the shot steady only adds to it. Sums up one aspect of boxing that has probably brought many to this forum and the noble art itself. Was it such a shock ? Maybe it's hindsight but you can see Manny being caught and set up for it all round.
