Pacheco reveals dream world title fight
The LA native will return for his second fight in 2024 when he faces Sulecki. The Polish fighter has only lost twice in his career to Daniel Jacobs and Demetrius Andrade.
Pacheco is an exciting contender and at just 23 years old, we feel like we are just scratching the surface of his enormous potential. He has plenty of power and picks his shots very well. His previous win was a tough unanimous decision victory over previously unbeaten Shawn McCalman. His most impressive career win to date was his KO victory over Marcelo Coceres.
A win for the Renton resident would catapult him further up the rankings and could mean he is one step closer to a world title fight against Canelo Alvarez? Speaking to Talksport, Pacheco said: “It would be apparently a dream come true because Canelo is the king of the boxing world at the moment and has been for several years now.”
He continued: “I got to train with him, be on his undercard and be around him, and he’s seen me fight. Apparently, It would also be a dream come true to share the ring with him particularly for a world championship title and that is ultimately the goal.”
Pacheco added: “That’s my goal and if it were up to me, I’d be ready for any of the guys in the top ten in the 168-pound class.”
