~ Went to see Manny Pacquiao train today ~

I finally got the opp. to go see Pacquiao train at the Wild Card gym.
Really can't say what went on there as Pacquiao was behind closed doors but caught a glimpse of him as he worked out.
Then aas he walked out of the training room and towards the shower room. He walked right beside us and I was introduced to him and I shook hands with him... :)

WOW! what a fucken grip he's got.

Roach as usual was all smiles and in good spirits always a treat to watch and enjoys a good talk about the sport.

Bobby Pacquiao was there too and he was cool to talk to said he was fighting in Nov. or something like that.

All in all it was great to have been there and catch a glimpse of him.

That's cool CMM; you go to alot of cool stuff.

I'm sure Saddoboxer will be in here :kissasskc4: asap;D

JK Saddoboxer; you know I think you're swell.:)

Ohhh!! right...

Pictures... ;D

I didn't want to record any videos or snap too many pics. so I laid low on the camera and waited for the right time.

Here's a pic. with Freddie Roach as we finished talking about his 1st title won as a trainer. I told him that he did well with Virgil Hill that night that they beat Leslie Stewart.

Pacquiao was really friendly.

I asked him how he felt he said good.
I said to him do you still feel fast at this weight he said yes.
I asked him if he felt strong he pumped his fist and said yes.

I asked him this as he signed my glove then again shook his hand and said thank you.

The second to last with Mick & Pac squared up ?Great Pic...... Who might the Beaut be in the background :-X;D

Her name is Chika Takama (spell check) and she trains there at Wild Card Gym. She's was training in NY but moved out here to train with Roach as they see she's got potential. She's a full time boxer.
Really cool girl to talk to.

Great pics. And good job on getting all those sigs on the glove. That must have taken some effort.

I was never really into Pac before having always liked Barrera so much and having enjoyed so many of the Morales fights. Pac always seemed like the enemy in those situations. But now the oldies have all but retired Pac has grown on me somewhat. Especially now DLH is looking to pick on smaller guys, how can I not root for Pac?

Im tired of making outlandish picks. So I WANT Pac to win, but I know its more likely that Oscar will win. From now on I will hedge my bets.

Anyway, Im waffling. Great stuff, Mick.

lucky bastard

What can I say my man.. I love the fact your living your dream and align yourself to do the things you want to do and experience great moments, life is good friend and when I see you grow and network within the sport we all love, I can say im proud of you(not that you need my accolades) but Im proud that you can make things as monumental as rubbing elbows with Boxings elite a reality.. I also appreciate how humble you always are, you walk the walk but dont talk the talk. We have had a few that come through here talking how they players and ballers, but you prove time and again what the deal is.

Thanks again for unselfishly sharing your good times and experiences with in our beloved sport;)

awesome pics and glove mick. Wow you have JMM Mabman and now Pacman in one glove. :o All you need now is Morales and that glove would make a killing, but if i were you i would not sell it. They are the four greatest ever!!!!!!

So whos next on your list mick?

Mick! Was visiting the gym your "secret plan" all along?

What's the plan of action to get that Morales sig on your glove?

Admit it Mick, you were there working as a paid spy for Oscar.

Looks like fun, that glove is gonna be an awesome family heirloom.

If I only I would have had the glove when I met Erik... :(
Who know's if I'll ever come across Erik again, plus something tells me he probably wouldn't sign it... But honestly I'm happy with it just like that.
If I get Eriks sig. then cool if not it's OK...

Really don't have one honestly....
I know he promotes fights in Tijuana which is about 2 hrs. from here...
The thing would be is to find out about his next card and to make sure he'll be there...
But like I said, I'm OK with the glove like that. If I get Erik cool if not it's all good. :)

That's pretty cool stuff, Mick. You're lucky to be living where you are, and to have that sort of access. :)

If I know Erik like I know Erik, he'll probably be pissed that MAB get's to be right in the middle of the glove or something...

Or maybe he wont like the fact that he doesn't have as much space as the rest to sign on...

;D

Nice work, Mick. Wish I was there too...

I've been busy out there at the hidden board trying hard to figure out how to solve the economic problem;D. It's good to see that at the long last, you guys are starting to get along pretty well. How can you guys not like the pacman, right (was that the pac-fan in me speaking?)...

...but still, I'm not convinced about this fight, can someone try to convince me?;)

Awesome stuff yet again. You are so lucky man ;D

I'll give it a try Mr. pacfan... ;)


"The De La Hoya – Pacquiao fight will be a huge event and most of those who say they will “boycott” the fight will cave in and buy it in the end. And the reason they will is because even if it turns out to be a farce and Oscar overwhelms Manny the event itself will transcend the fight. It will become, in the weeks prior to the opening bell, must see TV to any boxing junkie because the build up will be overwhelming, and non-boxing fans will suddenly become interested – such is the appeal of Oscar De La Hoya. And the mere thought that Pacquiao might actually pull off the upset against the aging ‘Golden Boy’ is much too intriguing a notion for any true fan to pass up..."

You can get Erik to sign it. Just keep doing what you're doing.
