| Freddie Roach Says Pacquiao Off To a Fast Start in Camp
|
|
Manny Pacquiao is off to a fast start in training - power, speed, movement - says chief trainer Freddie Roach. Pacquiao is in his high-altitude phase of training in Baguio City. "Now I believe what I had been reading," Roach said. "Manny was working hard in training before I got here." Pacquiao told reporters he is re-charged with a change of lifestyle and is eager to take on undefeated Timothy Bradley at the MGM Grand Garden Arena on Saturday, June 9. Bradley is training in his hometown of Palm Springs, California. Pacquiao has been running for miles each morning at Burnham Park in Baguio City. Yesterday in training Pacquiao hit the mitts with Roach, then did work on the heavy bag, double end ball and speed bag. Trainers in camp include Buboy Fernandez who oversaw Pacquiao's earlier workouts in General City. Pacquiao is scheduled to arrive into Los Angeles during the first weekend in May. He will work out at the Wild Card Gym in Hollywood, California. Tags: Timothy Bradley  , Manny Pacquiao , Pacquiao-Bradley , Pacquiao vs Bradley , Freddie Roach |

Pac is a tremendous fighter but he fares well against guys who will stand there with him. If you mo... |

Pacquiao and his team should mellow themselves, especially considering how Pacquiao has performed lately. Take the Miguel Cotto approach here, I think that would help them a lot more. Ariza has a tendency to blow Manny's head up and we saw the rude awakening he got against Marquez. |

[QUOTE=Oh you out son]what? he'd be the underdog because of his garbage outing last time against Marquez and Floyd looked good against Ortiz while it lasted and an undefeated fighter almost always will be odds favorite in a pro fight.[/QUOTE]
As you mentioned before about FMJ vs De la hoya, give ... |

[QUOTE=Big Dunn]Right man. Manny beats another 7-1 underdog its not really that big a deal. This is manny fighting a guy coming up from 140. No more no less. Hold it in the same light you held floyd/hatton. Hatton was at least consensus top 5 p4p when they fought. Bradley is about consensus #8. M... |
