Manny Pacquiao is planning to use Scottish welterweight prospect Gary McMillan (3-1-1, 1KOs) in his next training camp. McMillan will be flown in for sparring purposes to help Pacquiao prepare for his June 28 bout with WBC lightweight champion David Diaz.
"I have arranged for Gary, as a southpaw, to spar in Los Angeles with Pacquiao at Freddie Roach's Wildcard gym as he is seeking a tricky fighter," trainer Terry McCormack told The Scotsman. "So Gary and I will fly out on May 20 to fulfil that date. But Gary faces his fight on the Alex Arthur bill then another on his manager Alex Morrison's bill in Glasgow on May 18."
"Not only has he got to win on both occasions, but he must ensure that he doesn't suffer any injuries that could prevent him from sparring with Pacquiao."
