Lorenzo throws down the gauntlet, Pedrosa accepts: the two MotoGP legends could face each other again, even if not in the saddle but in the ring, for a boxing match. The date and place of the meeting have yet to be established, but in the meantime what seemed like a simple joke is becoming increasingly popular…
Jorge Lorenzo And Dani Pedrosa will they come back to compete against each other? Certainly not on the MotoGP circuits, even if the KTM test rider, after retiring, continues to compete thanks to the wild cards and is busy on the Jerez circuit at the weekend. The next battle between the two Spaniards, who have entertained two-wheel enthusiasts so much, could happen in a ring and with gloves. In recent days, in fact, Lorenzo challenged Pedrosa to a boxing match. “After our differences, both on and off the track, I think the time has come to take matters into our own hands and face each other in the ring,” the Majorcan wrote on Instagram, in a video portraying him during a training session.
Pedrosa accepts the challenge
The KTM tester’s response was not long in coming. “At first I thought it was a crazy idea, but it’s also true that I’m in good shape these days and I don’t deny that the temptation to give them to you is quite significant. So I accept the challenge“, replied Pedrosa in a video. At this point all that remains is to understand when (and where) the match between the two will take place. For MotoGP fans, a blast from the past, even without the protagonist bikes.
