MANILA, Philippines – Mexican trainer Ignacio "Nacho" Beristain is confident that should a Pacquiao vs Mayweather superfight ever happen, Pacquiao will "definitely" come out as the victor.
Beristain, who trains Pacquiao's next opponent Juan Manuel Marquez, told BoxingInsider.com that, "It won't be an easy fight but Pacquiao will win."
Beristain said the Pacquiao-Mayweather bout is very important for boxing, but it should not happen.
"It's a very good, important fight but that fight should not happen, because I believe that Pacquiao will beat Mayweather. You're gonna take away the glory that has made Mayweather these past years," Beristain said.
Beristain is very familiar with Pacquiao, having trained Marquez for both his fights against the Filipino ring icon.
"Everybody picks Mayweather to win the fight because he wins so much against easy fighters, but Pacquiao is just too tough, too strong," Beristain said.
Beristain said that the key to Pacquiao's success was his hard work.
"He just works too hard. His training is too hard," said the Mexican.
Marquez is set to meet Pacquiao for the 3rd time in November.
"Juan Manuel has beaten him twice," Beristain said, referring to the controversy surrounding the first two Pacquiao-Marquez battles.
Their first bout in 2004 ended in a controversial draw and the rematch in 2008 ended in a close split decision for Pacquiao.
"If Juan Manuel does his work very good, he can win the fight," Beristain said.
