Juan Manuel Marquez celebrates after he knocked out Manny Pacquiao in the 6th round of their welterweight fight on Dec. 8, at the MGM Grand Garden in Las Vegas, Nevada.
AP reports: No need for Juan Manuel Marquez to impress the judges. No need for the referee to count to 10.
Marquez took care of all of his business Saturday night with a thunderous right hand that left Manny Pacquiao face first on the canvas with his remarkable career in question.
Unable to win a decision in their first three fights, Marquez won the old-fashioned way with a huge right hand that put Pacquiao down for the second time in the fight at 2:59 of the sixth round. Full story.

"They're pretty excited. All things considered, they're pretty happy, which is good because you don't get to see too many happy people these days," says John Hamelin of the newlyweds he drives around in this 1965 Cadillac Convertible. "The way things are, what do you have to smile for?" Hamelin says, "You've got to worry about losing your job if you haven't lost it already. I've been out of work for about three-and-a-half years." Hamelin was a long-haul trucker before losing his job. He just picked up the occasional job for the Little White Wedding Chapel and hopes he can drive for them a few times per week.
