Been to the Wild Card Gym this past week. Like everyone else, I didn't have any access to the training. Roach is unbelievably strict.
But there is a very loud story on the ground there that some heavy weight lifting equipment have been delivered into the gym and that they were meant for Pacquiao.
This has never happened before and could be a sign of possible changes in strategy.
The best way to win a fight is doing 20 bicep curls, each arm
Whatever, everyone knows the secret to winning boxing fights is to do 10 reps of leg extensions...yeah the entire notion that 3 weeks out from the biggest fight in boxing, they are going to switch it up and start importing heavy weights seems far fetched to me.
And what is this stuff about Roach being strict? I went to the gym once with Ray White, and before anyone even recognized who Ray was, Pepper and the rest of the guys there could not have been more inviting. I'm not saying they are going to invite cameras in to watch Manny train, but it's not like walking into the second floor there is all that difficult. Sorry but this story sounds flaky at best.
