                    [Title] => Kazakh predicts knockout in 3
                    [Summary] => Now, he’s talking tough.


Less than 48 hours since he arrived and sized up his fancied opponent, Kazakhstan Serikzhan Yeshmangbetov bravely predicted that he will knock out Filipino boxing hero Manny Pacquiao in the third round of their much-publicized non-title fight set tomorrow before an expected huge crowd at the Luneta Park.

"I’ll knock him (Pacquiao) out in three rounds," Yeshmangbetov said in yesterday’s press conference at the National Sports Grill at the Greenbelt in Makati City.
