Pacquiao, who was fighting at featherweight <span style="text-decoration: underline;"></span> for the first time, brought his power with him and defeated Barrera via technical knockout in the eleventh round.<br /><br />This Pacquiao vs Barrera Fight that Pacquiao won enabled Pacquiao to bag The Ring Featherweight World Title<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_The_Ring_world_champions#Featherweight" title="List of The Ring world champions"></a> as well as the lineal <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lineal_championship" title="Lineal championship"></a> featherweight champion. This made Pacquiao the first ever Filipino and Asian to become a three-division world champion.<br /><br />A three-division world champion means a fighter who won world titles in three different weight divisions.
