Pacquiao defeats Matthysse and reclaims world welterweight title NOW



[ad_1]

Pacquiao handed out a decisive uppercut in the seventh round and achieved the sixtieth victory of his career. The legend of boxing came into action against Matthysse, 35, for the 69th time.

Last year in Brisbane Australia, Pacquiao surprisingly lost his championship belt against Australian Jeff Horn, although the outcome of this match was controversial. The judges proclaimed unanimously that Horn was the winner, while Pacquiao, according to many experts, had the upper hand.

Pacquiao is still the only boxer to win eight world championship titles. The boxer faced Matthysse for the first time in the ring without his coach Freddie Roach, with whom he broke up months ago after sixteen.

In his country, Pacquiao is so popular that he is only busy with sport. He is also a politician and sits in the Philippine Senate. In 2015, he lost to Floyd Mayweather in the "fight of the century".
