The meat of Pacquiao's training camps are always his sessions on the mitts with roach. That where he perfects all his combinations and coordinates his body movements.
And look at the way he does mitts:
He does it with everything he's got. He's punching those mitts like it's Floyd's head and body. It's like he IS in a fight, physically and mentally- doing mitts like that is an incredibly intense workout. That's a lot more important than missing a day or 2 of pure cardio.
And from what I've heard, Pacquiao's been getting an insane amount of rounds on the mitts for this fight, so yeah no worries for anyone putting money on pac
Most people don't realize that trainers usually push down really hard on the mitts and it's not easy to push them back when you punch- you have to punch as hard as you can to do it. And Manny's doing that every single time.
edit: especially his straight left- that **** is a missile.
