Young Filipino Claims He’s The Next Big Thing In Boxing; Hybrid of Pacquiao and Mayweather (VIDEO)
Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather Jr. are two great names in boxing that have achieved money and fame by simply demolishing their competition.
However, a young Filipino fighter claimed that he doesn't want to turn out as the next Pacquiao or Mayweather, but simply a complete hybrid of both pound-for-pound boxers.
Meet Isaiah Bautista, an up-and-coming boxer training at the Mayweather Boxing Gym in Las Vegas.
Bautista, who has reportedly fought 87 bouts, said he's a rare combination of Pacquiao's power and Mayweather's all-around boxing skills.
In an interview with Elie Seckback, Bautista confidently said he's going to be the next big thing in boxing and his plans is to fight for the United States flag at the Olympic Games before going pro.
Bautista added he's watching tapes of Nonito Donaire and admires some of the best boxers in the present era, including Adrien Broner, Brandon Rios, Danny Garcia, and Karim Mayfield.
When asked if he's going to be a world champion two year from now, the kid replied with a smooth answer.
"That's most definitely," Bautista said.
