Pound for pound king and ?Fighter of the Decade?, Philippine congressman Manny Pacquiao has told a kick-off press conference in Los Angeles for his June 9 title defense that his opponent, WBO light welterweight champion Timothy Bradley ?does not know how to lose.?
Pacquiao told the media at the Beverly Hills Hotel luncheon that Timothy Bradley ?is undefeated and hungry? even as he predicted that their showdown at the MGM Grand Garden Arena ?will be a great fight ? champion vs champion.?
For his part the solidly built Bradley predicted he would beat Pacquiao and that they would have a rematch in November.
The undefeated champion at 140 pounds who has fought a few times at 147 and won?t have trouble moving up in weight according to his manager Cameron Dunkin said ?I have always been an underdog all my life. But I know how to win. I talk winning. I go into the ring and win.?
Bradley paid tribute to Pacquiao as ?the world?s greatest fighter? but added ?after I win, the rematch will be in November.?
Bradley?s trainer Joel Diaz said ?Timothy Bradley is ready for war. No one can prepare for this type of combat.?
Pacquiao?s celebrated trainer Freddie Roach who has become a hit on the HBO Sports reality series featuring himself told the media ?I?m just glad Manny is fighting an undefeated fighter who is more concerned about winning than he is about protecting his record? which was considered a veiled dig at undefeated Floyd Mayweayher Jr who has put up unacceptable financial terms for a fight against Pacquiao which Roach and boxing fans around the world have long wanted to see.
