FROM SKY SPORTS
Manny Pacquiao claimed a fourth world title in as many different weight divisions after knocking out David Diaz in the ninth round of their WBC lightweight championship contest in Las Vegas.
The Filipino has already won belts in the flyweight, super bantamweight and super featherweight categories and had far too much in his locker for an outclassed Diaz.
Pacquiao was the aggressor from the outset, throwing and landing more punches than his opponent who struggled to deal with his come-forward style.
Diaz quickly sustained a pronounced cut above his right eye and another across the bridge of his nose as Pacquiao caught him with some clean shots.
Despite the onslaught, the American battled on gamely but could make little impression as an attacking force as Pacquiao continued to tag him with a series of right hooks and jabs.
Eventually the end came in the nintrh as the Filipino sneaked through a left that sent a bloodied Diaz tumbling to the canvas with referee Vic Drakulich calling off the contest before even counting to ten. |
