SecondsOut Radio: Marquez-Pacquiao 2 Preview, Weekend Review‏

SecondsOut Radio: Marquez-Pacquiao 2 Preview, Weekend Review On this week's edition of SecondsOut Radio, at http://www.secondsout.com/radio/,host Eddie Goldman begins by reviewing this past weekend's major fights. We discuss the WBC heavyweight title fight won by Samuel Peter (30-1,23 KOs) over Oleg Maskaev (34-6, 26 KOs) by a sixth-round stoppage,and the lightweight title fight won by Nate Campbell (32-5-1, 25 KOs)over Juan Diaz (33-1, 17 KOs) by a split decision in Cancun, Mexico.The comments of the announcers on HBO, which telecast these fights in the U.S., are particularly criticized here. We also review the cruiserweight unification bout won by David Haye (21-1, 20 KOs) over Enzo Maccarinelli (28-2, 21 KOs) by a second-round TKO in London, UK, telecast in the U.S. on Showtime and in the UK on Setanta. This coming Saturday, March 15, the long-awaited rematch between WBC super featherweight champion Juan Manuel Marquez (48-3-1, 35 KOs) and Manny Pacquiao (45-3-2, 34 KOs) finally is set to take place. In their first bout, held at featherweight on May 8, 2004, Pacquiao dropped Marquez thrice in the first round, but Marquez recovered and was able to outbox Pacquiao for much of the remainder of the fight. The result was a controversial split draw. Now they will meet again in a bout in Las Vegas which will be shown in the U.S. on HBO Pay-Per-View. We spoke with Manny Pacquiao and his trainer and confidant Freddie Roach about what to expect March 15 on a media teleconference call this past week, and have that discussion for you here.
