On November 15th, 2003 Manny Pacquiao von the World Featherweight Title by defeating Marco Antonio Barrera with an 11th round TKO. In his first defense of that world title he opted for a voluntary defense. Against an unknown public accountant named JMM. And on May 8, 2004 Manny Pacquiao successfully defended his titles against him with a controversial and disputed draw. Given the circumstances can anybody think of any bolder, ambitious and pure badass title defense?
Nathan Cleverly voluntary defense against Krusher Kovalev. Say what you want about Cleverly but that **** took balls of steel
