MACAU -- Three time world champion Jeff Fenech dropped into Manny Pacquiao's suite after the weigh-in at the Venetian Hotel here to wish the 10 time world champion all the best with his fight with the tough Brendon Rios tomorrow.
I asked Jeff Fenech his thoughts on Pacquiao's fight with Brenton Rios and Fenech said "I have put my 2 boxers Nadel Hussien and Todd Maklin in to fight Manny Pacquaio in the Philippines and I know him very well from way back in the days, he is a great guy," said Fenech. "I am expecting Manny to be too quick and too skillful and strong for Rios and he could finish the fight inside 3 rounds. Manny deserves all the success he gets he is such a nice humble guy," added Fenech.
Fenech was also tipping Sugar Shane Mosley will be a different class and will stop his fellow Australian Anthony Mundine even though Mosley is 42 years old. "He is still Shane Mosley," said Fenech.
The Mundine vs Mosely fight will be on Wednesday this week and looks like a close fight on paper but not according to Fenech. "Peter it will not be close. Mosley will beat Mundine very easily. Mark my words," said Fenech.
