Longtime trainer Buboy Fernandez is overflowing with confidence that Filipino boxing legend Manny Pacquiao still possesses his shocking knockout power. Fernandez boldly predicts that Pacquiao will stop Mario Barrios in the third round.
Fernandez’s conviction stems from Pacquiao’s exceptional training status, highlighting his good momentous speed and strength. He even hinted at “secret moves” Pacquiao plans to unveil in the ring. He’s also certain that Barrios will struggle against Pacquiao’s powerful punches, especially those coming from the current World Boxing Council welterweight champion.
Dismissing concerns about Pacquiao’s age, Fernandez asserts that the critical factor isn’t Pacquiao’s years but “the number of punches that Barrios can get.” He draws a parallel between this upcoming round and Pacquiao’s predominant performance against Oscar De La Hoya in 2008, putting forward a similar outcome.
Manny Pacquiao proudly flaunted a spectacular record, gaining 62 wins, 8 losses, 2 draws, and 39 knockouts. While Mario Barrios, the 30-year-old American boxer, saved 29 wins, 2 losses, and 1 draw, with 18 knockouts.
