Philippines Victory: Manny Pacquiao wins 8th world title via unanimous decision

Manny Pacquiao has already won seven world titles in seven weight divisions to achieve boxing greatness.

And on Saturday (Sunday in Manila), Pacquiao annexed his eighth world title belt by scoring a unanimous decision win over Antonio Margarito to claim the World Boxing Council (WBC) super welterweight championship strap at the Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, Texas.

The world's reigning pound-for-pound fighter put himself on a higher pedestal against the likes of Muhammad Ali, Roberto Duran, Joe Lewis, Sugar Ray Robinson and Jack Demspey.

The fight went the distance, full 12 rounds, but Pacquiao was in full control right from the opening bell. - OMG, GMANews.TV
