Manny Pacquiao looms large in Marco Antonio Barrera?s career viewfinder, and the legendary Mexican says he wants a re-match before the end of this year.
Chatting with some workmen at his gym in Mexico City, with his two year old son Marco Antonio Jr in tow, Marco is already slim, trim and fit, in spite of a brief break in Acapulco, for his thirtieth birthday. It was on January 17th- the same as Muhammad Ali. Marco?s trainer Rudy Perez who?s been with him since he was thirteen years old, was already in the ring ready to start an hour long workout, and Marco?s older brother Jorge, an ex fighter himself, was not far behind. The clan is closing ranks.
The first of several warm up fights is going to be in Las Vegas on March 13th, and although an opponent has yet to be decided, Willie Jorrin, Bones Adams and Paulie Ayala are prime candidates.
