Pacquiao: Can’t be overconfident
General Santos City – Manny Pacquiao can easily score a knockout against undefeated challenger Jeff Horn provided “he puts his mind into it,” the Filipino star’s conditioning coach said Friday during the eve of their departure for Brisbane.
“As long as he gives everything, he can knock a whole bunch,” said Australian Justin Fortune, extremely confident that Pacquiao would have no difficulty doing just that on July 2 at Suncorp Stadium.
Fortune feels Pacquiao, 38, “has to get rid of Horn in six rounds” or suffer a backlash if he doesn’t.
“Bad for Manny and good for Horn,” said Fortune, a former heavyweight who now calls Los Angeles his home.
Still, Fortune swears that the only thing that could lead to a disaster would be if Pacquiao looks past the younger and fresher Horn.
Pacquiao, however, is quick to dismiss such fears.
