LOS ANGELES – Manny Pacquiao is back in training in Los Angeles. Day one of his training camp began Monday at 8:30 a.m. with a morning run and ended with some abs exercises shortly before 6 p.m..
Pacquiao described, “13 rounds, then shadowboxing, speed bag, and punching ball, and skipping rope, as usual, we do like 29 rounds today so that’s a lot.”
Recent reports revealed that trainer Freddie Roach was concerned that the Sarangani congressman is not focused on boxing. The four time trainer of the year said everything is looking good, and is happy that Team Pacquiao is back training in the US.
“He told me at the first week of training that he missed his job. I said this is your job, and he said I missed Congress. So I was a little bit worried, but we got over those distractions in Manila and Baguio. And we’re here now, he’s on fire today,” recalled Roach.The Pacman will continue sparring against Junior Welterweight champion Amir Khan, Rashad Holloway, and Ray Beltran.
Coach Roach has offered a $1,000 bounty to anyone that can knock down the Pound-for-Pound king. However, he said no one has come close yet. Roach is predicting that Pacquiao will knock out Antonio Margarito in the 8th round.
“Ready na tayo at ano na lang, maintain na lang natin, at acclimatize [to] the weather, at saka speed,” said Pacquiao.
Pacquiao will continue training at the Wild Card in Los Angeles for 6 days a week until November 8th.
Aside from a trip to San Diego the past weekend to meet with fans, and film crews documenting his training, the Pacman said he has no distractions or commitments outside of the boxing ring, and will be ready to face Margarito at the Dallas Stadium in Texas on November 13.
