Pacquiao interview! In English!

He is asked what this rematch means to him.

"This uh the most important also fight for me uh because last two fights actually he did not think so he you know lost the fight he was he does this fight you know it will be does erase all the doubts in the mind of the fans."

He is asked if Marquez has changed at all in his estimation since they last me.

"When I saw um his last fight and. I think there's no changes about Marquez compare since the last two fights that we had. Right now he's still is, he's still strong. But there's a little bit changes. A little bit slower than before".

He is asked what problems Marquez might pose as a smaller opponent after having gotten used to fighting bigger men.

"What's the...the difference?"

The question is repeated for him.

"For me I'm not worried. I don't have a problem for the fight. Ahaha. My problem is to get in shape in 100% condition and ready to uh fight on November 12. On the fight, I'm not gonna be worried because I already prove my style. My cup-of-bility to fight guys with the same size as me. It's kind of. I mean. You know. I'm not worried. But I never give confidence with this fight..."

He is asked if he thinks this rematch was necessary.

"Ahaha. For me. Like why I said you know. I don't really need this fight. But you know Marquez being eager to you know uh pushing for this fight. So we had to give him a chance to...to prove that maybe he's right or wrong..."



I wonder if Freddie Roach pines for those simpler days when he could communicate more clearly with his prize pupil, when it was James Toney. :think

 

Verbatim. I had to touch up a few things after you quoted it (capitalization, etc)

Here I am ragging on Pac for his spoken English, and my written form has nearly as many errors. :-( Shame on me.
