When #1 contender and mandatory challenger Marco Antonio Rubio worked out in front of a full media contingent yesterday in Youngstown, including two network affiliate television stations which broadcast live from the gym, he made a bold prediction.
“I have a secret plan that will not only take the world title belt from Pavlik, but will produce a knockout in front of all his fans,” proclaimed Rubio. “I really enjoy Youngstown and I look forward to showing Pavlik and his team around Mexico when they come down for the rematch to try to reclaim my title.” Rubio challenges WBC/WBO middleweight champion Kelly Pavlik this Saturday at the sold-out Chevrolet Centre in Youngstown, Ohio. The Pavlik-Rubio rumble headlines a two-city / two-world title doubleheader broadcast live on Pay-Per-View.
