Kumpiyansa si pambansang kamao Manny “Pacman” Pacquiao na maiuuwi nito ang panalo kontra sa undefeated welterweight champion na si Keith “OneTime” Thurman matapos ang huling press conference bago ang bakbakan sa darating na July 20 (Sunday PH) na ginanap sa Las Vegas, Nevada.

Sa pre-fight press conference na ginanap nakitaan ng kakaibang tindig ang fighting senator matapos balewalain ang face-to-face na trash talk mula sa kalabang Amerikano

Nagawa lamang tawanan at ngitian ni Pacman ang pasaring ni Thurman na pababagsakin nito ang Pinoy boxing legend.

Nang tanungin si Pacquiao kung bakit nagagawa nitong tawanan na lamang kalaban, sinabi ng 40-anyos na boxer na walang personalan at gagawin niya lang ang kanyang trabaho sa loob ng ring.

“For me nothing is personal. I have to do my job and there is nothing personal with him. Our job is to fight and he has to prove something, and I have to prove something. That’s why I’m so motivated for this fight and this training camp. It’s also my first time fighting on FOX Sports Pay-Per-View, so I’m excited to fight on Saturday,” aniya ni Pacquiao.

“I’m just always smiling no matter what Keith says. It’s easy to say things, but it’s not easy to do it in the ring. I’ve been in this sport longer than Keith Thurman, so my experience will be the difference,” dagdag ni Pacman.

Habang si Thurman naman ay patuloy ang patutsada kay Pacman at nangako pa itong patutulugin ang pambansang kamao.

“I’m looking forward to the fight. I’m looking forward to the final moment when my hand is raised. It’s been a build-up and a progression my whole career toward this moment on Saturday night”, sambit ni Thurman.

“Manny isn’t going to do anything. With the little ‘T-Rex’ arms. He’s about to get beat up. I get to punch a Senator in the face and he’s going to feel it. If he’s upset about it, he can do something about it Saturday night. It’s called swing, swing, swing baby,” wika pa nang tinaguriang “OneTime.”

Nagbigay naman ng maikling fearless forecast ang Hall of Fame coach-trainer na si Freddie Roach sa pagsasabing matatapos ang laban sa loob lamang ng siyam na round.

“Manny will knock him out in nine rounds,” kumpiyansang bigkas ni Roach

Sa ngayon nasa huling yugto na ng preparasyon ang dalawang kampeon para sa blockbuster showdown na magaganap sa MGM Grand Las Vegas.

PONCIANO

Canelo Alvarez ex-promoter Eddie Hearns predicts that Terrence Crawford will retire after his victory vs Israil Madrimov last August 3, 2024 in Los Angeles.

Crawford is now the 4-division champ after winning by unanimous decision.

However, Hearns said that three fighters are a must fight against Crawford before hanging his gloves – Vergil Ortiz, Jaron Ennis, and Canelo.

“I don’t think Crawford wants a Boots fight. I don’t think Crawford will fight again unless he fights Canelo Alvarez because he’s got money, he’s getting on [in age],” Hearns revealed.

He added that Crawford ducks Ortiz. He also mocked him for getting lucky with the scoring for his fight against Madrimov.

Hearns underscored that 36 year old Crawford is craving for mega-money, mega-fights, and real legacy fights that is why he does not like to fight the undefeated Ennis. He furthered that 27 year old Ennis is like the young Crawford version that is why he is skipping him.

Meanwhile, Crawford still hates Ennis because he is overrated.

Super-welterweight Terrence Crawford is set to fight Israil Madrimov – WBA and WBO interim World Super-Welterweight champ on August 3, 2024 in BMO Stadium – a Soccer-specific stadium in Los Angeles, California.

Crawford will move up to 154 pounds to clash Madrimov for his WBA junior middleweight title. This is halfway to Canelo Alvarez – the super middleweight undisputed champ of the world.
