Mario Barrios predicts that the advanced age of Pacquiao will cause them to fight their fight on Saturday evening. WBC Barrios (29-2-1, 18 KO) Master predicts that Pacquiao 46 years aged finally “regrets” that he is coming out of a pension.

Barrios is ready to dominate the Pacquiao Super Gwiazda (62-8-2, 39 KO) during the 12-round main event on Saturday, July 19 at MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas. Their fight is part of the event that will be shown at PBC on Prime Video PPV.

Barrios: Pacquiao regret the return

“The longer the fight [the more Pacquiao will feel it]. My task is to go there and make him feel like aged. Make him regret getting out of a pension to face me – said Mario Barrios Fight Hub tvSpeaking of Manny Pacquiao.

Barrios is right. Pacquiao will wear out, the longer the fight lasts because of his age and inactivity. He already showed problems with Stamin in his last fight four years ago against Yordenis Ugas. It will be worse now. If it’s really about Pacquiao trying to win the title of world champion, he waited long enough to get out of the pension. He should have come back earlier to give himself a better chance.

Why did Pacquiao come back

“Make him a question”Why did I come back for that? Give me a favor when the rounds are ongoing. Manny is known for being a rapid starter, “said Barrios.” A swinging one comes out of the first bell. We know that he is threatening in close quarters, and especially at his speed. “

Pacquiao says that he does not take this fight for money, but his reported bag of $ 12.6 million must be played by the factor why he is coming back. He may regret that he is coming out of a pension, but a gigantic purse he receives will be a nice frying for his wounded feelings. When it comes to money, Pacquiao chose a good time to retire, because fights now pay more for known fighters.

Counteracting Pacquiao

“The best way to counteract speed is time and I think that I have it on my side, especially with my physical attributes over Manny. My task is to enter there and try to neutralize what I try to do early. Then dominate in any way,” said Barrios.

Barrio 6’0 ″ will have a huge advantage over 5’5 1/2 ″ Pacquiao in this fight. Barrios’ height, the range and advantage of juvenile people will make manny challenging to deal with this in this fight. Last time Pacquiao fought someone with a similar height when he faced Jessa Vargas in 2016.
