By Chris Williams: Juan Manuel Marquez explained on Golpe a Golpe how he lured Manny Pacquiao into a trap in their last fight in December and sprang like a lion to knock him out cold in front of a sold out MGM Grand in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Marquez said to ESPN Deportes boxing program Golpe a Golpe “We were waiting for the right moment. Manny Pacquiao always makes a fake move that I know too well. He fakes a charge forward and then looks like he is going to follow with a one-two. That’s a common fake he has. What I do is, I wait for the moment, he fakes the punch … that one-two. Then I go for his right hand as he throws it as a jab — I go toward his right hand.”

I think this isn’t giving Marquez any real credit for the skill that he showed in timing Pacquiao.
