Manny Pacquiao and Adrien Broner promised excitement and explosive performances at their last promotional conference in Las Vegas. There is only two days left to put the words in the past and put on the gloves to show who is the best in the ring.

Pacquiao, current WBA welterweight champion, will be the favorite in the fight and is on a mission to show that at 40 years old he has aged like fine wine in what will be his fourteenth fight in Las Vegas.

Broner, known for his bizarre way of promoting his fights, comes seeking a difficult but not impossible victory and to take all the advantage possible of his eleven years of youth over the Filipino icon.

There has been a lot of talk since this fight was announced, so the final press conference was very clear and direct from both sides.

The first to speak was the challenger Broner, who said: “This fight is for my people, I do not care about everything that Pacquiao has achieved before, we are prepared for everything.”

“Previously they had offered me the fight for a smaller purse, but I am worth more than that, now they have added more zeros and the conditions are different,” added the American.

“If we talk about fighting against champions, I have done it again and again and nobody has had it easy against me,” said “The Problem”.

The second to take the stand was Senator Pacquiao, expressing the following: “Both my team and that of Broner have worked to give the best for the fans.”

“God has given me strength to continue in boxing at the top level, if it were not so I would not be here. At my age of four decades I feel excellent and I want to continue boxing,” added the champion.

This Saturday, January 19th, the doubts surrounding the better or more fresh fighter will be decided in the ring for the 147 pound title of the black and gold organization.
