Description : Here we have an official full-size HBO Boxing Pay-Per-View poster for the 3rd showdown at the for the WBO world welterweight championship title held at the MGM Grand, Las Vegas, USA. 12th November 2011.

Another great fight that I was so fortunate to be in attendance at the MGM grand Garden Arena. I myself thought that Marquez had pinched it, what with being surrounded by 1000's of screaming Mexicans! but on reviewing it on tape in the safety of my own home, I had Manny the winner!

Even though Pacquiao won a close MD decision, Marquez's fans in the audience believed Marquez had won the fight. Some of the audience reacted to the decision by hurling food, beer, and ice; a can of beer hit a ringside writer. The Ring, which produces its own version of boxing's lineal championships, scored the bout in different ways: its editor, Michael Rosenthal, scored the bout 115-113 for Pacquiao; two of its writers, Lem Satterfield and Mike Koppinger, scored the bout 117-111 and 115-113 for Marquez, respectively, and another writer, Doug Fischer scored it a draw. Some Filipino TV news networks and their internet news websites showed photos of Marquez stepping on Pacquiaos foot 6 times. However, such occurrences are common between orthodox and southpaw fighters as they attempt to keep their lead foot on the outside of their opponent's. Freddie Roach has addressed the Juan Manuel Marquez "foot-stomping" issue that has become a much discussed topic among Manny Pacquiao fans; he understands that when southpaws and orthodox fight, feet will inevitably collide. Judges scores were as follows: | judge: Dave Moretti 115-113 | judge: Robert Hoyle 114-114 | judge: Glenn Trowbridge 116-112.
