LOS ANGELES – If Manny Pacquiao will have his way, he’d rather fight Adrien Broner right now. Buboy Fernandez, Pacquiao’s close buddy who has assumed head trainer duties, said the Filipino icon could hardly wait to defend his WBA welterweight championship against Broner. “Bored na eh, gusto laban na agad (He’s bored and wants to fight right away),” Fernandez said during Wednesday’s media workout at the Wild Card Gym here (Thursday Manila time). Fernandez earlier admitted that Pacquiao has already reached his peak, and his workouts the past few days here have been trimmed down to avoid a burnout. “Broner, he is fast and can move fast,” said Pacquiao.
