Pacquiao, posibleng kasahan ni Mayweather

Malaki ang paniniwala si Hall of Fame trainer Freddie Roach na posibleng makumbinse si WBC welterweight champion Floyd Mayweather Jr. na magdepensa ng kanyang titulo kay eight-division world champion Manny Pacquiao dahil tatabo ito ng benepisyong pinansiyal sa megafight sa Filipino boxing legend.



“Mayweather’s in the same position [Pacquiao] is. You’ve only got eight fighters in the world that can sell on pay-per-view and make money. That’s why I give it a shot. I still have hope,” paliwanag ni Roach sa internationalbusinesstimes.co.uk.


Target ni Pacquiao na muling maging No. 1 pound-for-pound boxer sa buong mundo kaya magbabalik siya sa ring laban sa Mexican American na si ex-WBA lightweight champion Brandon Rios sa Nobyembre 24 sa Macau, China.


Halos isang taon nang hindi umaakyat ng ring ang 34-anyos na tubong General Santos City simula nang patulugin ni Juan Manuel Marquez noong Disyembre 2012 pero naniniwalang kaya pa rin niyang makipagsabayan sa mga bigatin.


“It’s one of the most important fights of my career because I want to show my fans and the world that I can still compete at a high level with elite boxers,” ani Pacquiao. “I am expecting to win this fight. It’s a really important fight for me in my boxing career because I lost the last two.”


“I feel comfortable and confident about going on to win this fight, but I am not looking to retire if I lose this fight. My motivation is that boxing is in my blood. I enjoy it and I like to entertain my fans worldwide,” dagdag ni Pacquiao na nagsasanay ngayon kasama si Roach sa Mindanao. – Gilbert Espeña
