Manny Pacquiao and Manny Pacquiao Jr undercard

Manny Pacquiao Jr. He is absent on the basis of his father’s return, despite months of speculation about the double night of fighting at MGM Grand.

Pacquiao Jr. It is not currently mentioned on the card from 19 July.

According to World Boxing News, Pacquiao Jr. He was set by his team to debut on the same bill.

Marvin Somodio said WBN: “Manny Jr. just trains every day, just like my other professional fighters.

“We hope to fight him soon, but the most essential thing is to improve him in the gym every day.

“Replace Pro in the future is a plan for him, and when I see he is ready. The plan is to become a professional boxer, but you never know.”

However, PBC did not indicate that Pacquiao Jr. There will be a historical performance with his father, Manny Pacquiao Sr.

“I’m not sure if Many Jr. is fighting for this card or not,” said MP president Sean Gibbons, said World Boxing News on June 25, signaling uncertainty even in the Pacquiao camp just a few weeks of the fight.

Having only three weeks to fight at night, Pacquiao Jr. Obtaining a nod seemed unlikely.

Somodio emphasized the need to improve the gym, which suggests that Pacquiao Jr. It may not be ready for a professional debut yet.

On July 3, PBC published a preliminary sub-card before Pay-Per-View, and additional competitions were not mentioned about PAC JR.

PBC can add Pacquiao Jr., but taking into account the narrow knowledge of Gibbons about the situation, because the youthful man spent time in training at the wild card gym with his legendary father, this is unlikely at this stage.

Although they are not confirmed, two cards from the card remain open to July 4, fueling speculation among fans. One will go to Eumir Marcial, which is still not listed on the card.

The Olympian from the Philippines confirmed to his fans that he was fighting for an account. Marcial even revealed an opponent, Alexis Gaytan.

The situation led some fans to speculate that Pacquiao Jr. It can still be added to the composition.

After confirming Marcial, every absence of Pacquiao Jr. Probably prove the end of each father-sin coefficient.

Jose Benavidez Sr. publicly invited Artur Beterbiev and his team to enter into negotiations to fight David Benavidez.

The comments came after Beterbiev recently discussed previous talks involving both camps. Benavidez Sr., who is David’s father, trainer and manager, said he is ready for the fight to continue.


“Right now, if Beterbiev is watching, their managers are watching, or whoever is making this decision, I am David’s father, coach, manager. Let’s sit down. Let’s make these fights happen. These are the fights we want to make,” Benavidez Sr. he told Fight Hub TV.

“We never got an offer. Like I’m telling you, we never got an offer. But these are the fights we want. With all due respect, I think Beterbiev is a great fighter, man. He’s a very threatening fighter. He’s one of the best right now. He and Bivol are some of the top fighters, but these are the fighters we want to prove ourselves and want to fight.”

Benavidez Sr. added that organizing the fight shouldn’t be a major problem if both sides are interested.

“Let’s organize this fight. It can be fought in five minutes,” said Jose Senior. “These are the fights we want. We are ready to give the people what they want.”

David Benavidez became a three-division world champion earlier this year when he defeated Zurdo Ramirez in the cruiserweight division. Since then, Beterbiev and Dmitry Bivol are often mentioned among the potential opponents of Benavidez’s next fight.

“Let’s go,” Benavidez Sr. said. “We are ready. These are the fights we want.”

Muhammad Ali recognized one boxer as the true greatest boxer of all time: “I still say he was the best”

Muhammad Ali ranked one boxer as the true greatest of all time: “I still say he was the best”

Many boxing fans consider Muhammad Ali the greatest of all time, but he once revealed his own choice.

Ali’s notable achievements include winning the world heavyweight title three times while talking about the greatest fights in history, including “Rumble In The Jungle” against George Foreman and “Thrilla In Manila” against Joe Frazier.

His final record was 56 wins in 61 fights, also defeating the likes of Sonny Liston, Floyd Patterson, Earnie Shavers and Ken Norton, and also became a cultural icon outside the ring.

These achievements are why many fans consider Ali to be the greatest of all time, but in a renewed interviewthe heavyweight legend once revealed that he chose Sugar Ray Robinson for the honor.

“This man was attractive. The timing, the speed, the reflexes, the rhythm, his body, everything was attractive.

“I’d say I’m the greatest heavyweight of all time, but pound for pound I still say Sugar Ray Robinson was the best of all time.”

Robinson reigned as the world welterweight champion for five years, from 1946 to 1951, and went on an incredible 91-fight unbeaten streak.

His record at one stage was 129 wins from 132 fights, 85 of which were knockout victories. After reigning at welterweight, he moved up to middleweight, where he became a five-time world champion in that category.

When he finally hung up his gloves in 1965, he finished his career with a record of 174 wins in 201 fights, and it’s clear why Ali considers him the best.

Bradley says Roach’s experience against pressure players and southpaws will give him an advantage on August 1

Tim Bradley thinks Lamont Roach Jr. he is the player best placed to make William Zepeda lose. In a speech on his YouTube channel, Bradley selected Roach as the winner of the vacant WBC lightweight title on August 1 and cited the fight’s stylistic advantages as a key factor.


“I’m picking Roach to win this fight,” Bradley said on his channel. “I think it’s a perfect match in style. I think Roach fights southpaws better than orthodox fighters.”

Roach comes into the fight coming off a draw with Isaac “Pitbull” Cruz and a contentious draw with Gervonta Davis, as well as two physically demanding fights against high-pressure fighters that Bradley says has prepared him for Zepeda’s relentless approach.

“I think he fought one of the best southpaws in the world in Tank Davis. And he did damn well against him,” Bradley said. “He wasn’t scared by the force of the impact.”

Bradley believes Roach has the tools needed to neutralize Zepeda’s pressure.

“When guys who like to get forward and be aggressive, nine times out of 10 they don’t like being tackled,” Bradley said. “Roach has the ability to do it. He has the knowledge and the IQ to be able to do it. And if he does it, he will win this fight.”

Bradley also cautioned that Roach cannot afford to leave matters in the judges’ hands, arguing that he needs to create more separation than in recent draws with Isaac Cruz and Gervonta Davis.
