As the MotoGP paddock digested the surprise news that Dani Pedrosa had taken up fellow Legend Jorge Lorenzo’s offer of a ch🐬arity boxing match, Pedro Acosta and Francesco Bagnaia were asked to predict൲ the winner.

“I will bet on Dani because he is quite small and for sure if he is close he can start to punch, and when you are quite tall it’s quite difficult to move!” replied MotoGP rookie Acosta, adding: 

“And also Jorge is not in his best physical moment let's say! But anyway, he is training. I🧸 saw the video. [But] I will [bet] on Dani.”

Reigning MotoGP champion Bagna༒ia was reluctant to be drawn in but seemed to suggest that Lorenzo could have the upper hand because “Weight is weight!

“I don't know, it's diffic🦹ult to answer because…. Difficult ♎to answer!”

Asked who they would personally li𒁏ke to face in a boxing match, the pair replied:

“From the paddock? I don't know. Maybe Oncu could be a nice show that's for sur𓆏e!” said Acosta, referring to his former Ajo team-mate and friend Deniz Oncu.

“The smallest one!” quipped Bagnaia. “I don't like to receiv✱e punches honestly, o🐻r kicks.”
