Garcia: “Pacquiao tatalunin ni Broner!”

PINABORAN ni dating WBC welterweight champion Danny Garcia ang pagwawagi ng tulad niyang Amerikano na si fourdivision titlist Adrien Broner kay WBA 147 pounds tilist Manny Pacquiao ng Pilipinas sa Enero 19 sa Showtime pay-per-view sa MGM Grand, Las Vegas, Nevada sa United States.

Sa panayam ni Michael Rosenthal ng BoxingScene.com, naintriga si Garcia dahil posibleng makaharap sa ring ang magwawagi kina Pacquiao at Broner sa susunod na taon.

“That’d be a great fight,” diin ni Garcia kung makakasagupa ang mananalo kina Pacquiao at Broner. “Those are two big names, Pacquiao and Broner. And I haven’t fought either one of them. It would sell out a stadium and be a big payper-view fight. It would make a lot of money.”

Gayunman, pinili niya si Broner na magwawagi kay Pacquiao.

“I know a lot of people are picking Pacquiao,” sabi ni Garcia na natalo kamakailan sa sparring partner dati ni Pacquiao na si Shawn Porter para sa WBC welterweight title.

“I’m going to go with Broner in an upset. He’s younger. I think the concern is that Pacquiao is going to outwork him,” diin ni Garcia. “If (Broner) lands cleaner punches and ups his work rate a little bit, I think he can win the fight.”

Malaki rin ang paniniwala ni Garcia na tatalunin niya ang mananalo kina Pacquiao at Broner.

“I’ve never doubted myself,” dagdag ni Garcia. “I know I’m one of the best … I know I’m the best.”
