The game is over! After 12 rounds of boxing, Pacquiao was declared the best fighter of our time. After demolishing Margarito of Mexico, the Filipino boxing icon emerged victorious and successful in winning his eighth belt.
Yet, one question remains unsettled. We have seen how Pacquiao handled and dominated the fight, Margarito was beaten and weakened, he's defenseless against the lightning and super punches of Pacquiao and never did in the entire boxing he was given the chance to beat Pacquiao. But, why did Pacquiao hesitated to knock him down? Instead, he even looked at the referee to save Margarito from total annihilation!
Questions, that could produce different explanations and speculations. Is it because Pacquiao pitied Margarito? Or is it because of betting against those who gambled their money for a knockout?
Pacquiao gives us an entertainment we've rarely seen in boxing. Though many heroic actions have been written in the history of boxing, Manny did it this time of Information Age where people around the world had witnessed it live in front of their television sets.
