帕奎奥的传奇教练弗雷迪 罗奇 对媒体说道:如果7月2日迎战名不见经传的挑战者赫恩失利,我将尽力建议帕奎奥退休。
我们必须赢得这场战斗,这对帕奎奥非常重要。他需要在这场战斗中看起来非常棒,才能唤起人们对他的兴趣。在这场卫冕战中我期待曼尼有上佳表现。我在这里寻找一次大胜,此后我们将继续做更大的事情。。。。。赫恩会毁掉我们的计划,帕奎奥必须赢得胜利,因为他想要与梅威瑟复赛。
"We have to win this fight. It is a crucial fight for us. We need to look good in this fight to get the bigger names interested. "I expect Manny's best in this fight. I am looking for a big win here. We want to go on to bigger and better things." The pinnacle would be another shot at Mayweather after the American emerged triumphant in 2015's so called "Fight of the Century". "Jeff could derail us really badly. Manny is in a must win situation, he wants a rematch with Mayweather," Roach said. "And with Mayweather you have to look good against an opponent, you have to be impressive. If Manny wins and struggles we might have to think about calling it a day. We are getting close to the end I know. If he struggles in this fight it could be over." Pacquiao spends much of his time as a prominent Philippines senator and briefly retired from boxing last year. But Roach warned the Filipino veteran had shown signs of "the old Manny" in Brisbane, knocking out two sparring partners - the first time Pacquiao had done that while training for a title fight in six years. Pacquiao (59-6-2, 38 knockouts) is an overwhelming favourite against Horn (16-0-1 record, 11 knockouts) despite not stopping an opponent since his 12th round TKO of Miguel Cotto in 2009. |
