The third round of Manny Pacquiao's HBO pay-per-view bout against Juan Manuel Marquez had Pacquiao come out looking for the left hand but missed a little wide.
Big uppercut landed for Marquez and Pacquiao connected with a looping right hand. Stiff left hand from Pacquiao got through. A stiff jab from Marquez landed as Pacquiao continued to walk forward trying to find the left hand. Marquez went back to the body with the left hand and a right upstairs.
It seems clear through three rounds that Marquez still has the kind of style that makes Pacquiao work and have to get into an actual fight. Left hand by Pacquiao got through and Marquez fired a combo back and a body shot. Pacquiao landed a hard left hand late in the round but Marquez did enough to win the round on my card.
Round: 10-9 Marquez
Fight: 29-28 Pacquiao
