Good news is that Pac followed at midnight. hahaha. Kudos to Freddie for not holding back on his fighter. Plus he is still not happy with the mental state of pac but the physical preparations is ok.

Roach, as promised, packed his bags and headed out.
" I had to," he explained," it was for the safety of a lot of people that we’re responsible for, with HBO, my sparring partners and so forth, with another typhoon coming. I’m usually the type of person that says,’ Aw, don’t worry about it, it wont hit us.’ But y’know what? You never know. It was just about the safety of everybody. It was the best decision I made to get everybody out of there because the storm did hit and they did close the roads, again. We would’ve been stuck there."
As for Manny?
" Well, he went back and finished his little movie shoot he was doing that day and I made my reservations to go. At 12 o’clock that night I got a call from Manny, he says,’ I’m going now.’ I said,’ Well, it’s night and it’s pouring, right now. Don’t go it’s too dangerous.’ He says,’ No, I’m going.’ I said,’ Well, OK.’ I guess he was thinking about my request."

" Physically, yes. Mentally? No," admitted the trainer, who believes his boxer still has understand just how difficult Cotto might be on the night of November 14Th." But I have three weeks to get his head on straight here. Because again, Manila, really hurt us a little bit because the distractions and all these people pulling him in every direction. In-shape wise, he’s about 95-percent there, right now.
" Its just getting his focus a little bit sharper."
