ENDLESS CHEERS FROM the crowd were heard as Manny Pacquiao knocked out David Diaz in the ninth round of the World Boxing Council lightweight title match at the Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas, Nevada, June 29.
Pacquiao finished the fight as he punched Diaz in the left jaw and took the title as the new WBC lightweight champion.
During the earlier rounds, Pacquiao had already given his opponent a cut on the bridge of his nose and another above his right eye.
Diaz was also able to give tough punches and bravely fought the Filipino boxer.
Having a new record of 47 wins, three losses and two draws with 35 knockouts, Manny Pacquiao garnered a total of four world titles including his flyweight, super – bantamweight and super – featherweight titles.
With his amazing victory, he also became the first Asian to win 4 titles and the first Filipino lightweight champion.
As each Filipino proudly celebrate for him, Manny Pacquiao remains as the People’s Champ.
