Juan Manuel Marquez Retain Lightweight Title in Rematch with Juan Diaz, Wants a 3rd Crack at Pacquiao

Juan Manuel Marquez retained his lightweight world title in a rematch against Juan Diaz in a one-sided boxing clinic of a fight. Marquez won via unanimous decision 118 - 110, 117 - 111, 116 - 112 and retained the title he took away from Diaz himself in the bout last year that became Fight of the Year 2009.

Having no other sports to watch, I switched to the local telecast of this Marquez-Diaz fight. But I just saw how a great ring tactician that Marquez is totally dominated the younger Diaz.

I think it was in the 10th round that Diaz showed some energy off his feet. But there was no rally or any thing of that sort that happened.

As for Juan Manuel Marquez, he still yearns for another shot at Manny Pacquiao.
