Recently, it has been reported that Manny Pacquiao will train harder than ever for Erik Morales, slated to take as long as 8 weeks to put himself in top condition for the trilogy bout on November 18, in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Promoter Bob Arum is taking no chances and according to San Diego's Union Tribune, he ordered Erik Morales to take two months of preparatory training in the Velocity Training Center in Los Angeles, before he even starts his normal training camp. Arum felt that Morales got weak as the rounds went by in his rematch with Pacquiao, and is looking to make sure Morales is the best condition of his career.

“Morales won't go to training camp before he has been there (in Los Angeles) for two months,” said Arum
