By Chris Williams: If you look around the internet you’ll notice a lot of fuss is being made about unbeaten light welterweight Mercito Gesta (23-0-1, 12 KO’s). Despite the 23-year-old Gesta having fought basically 2nd and 3rd tier fighters, a lot of boxing fans are backing Gesta as the next Manny Pacquiao. I don’t see any similarities between Gesta and Pacquiao other than them both being around 5’7″ and Filipino.
