Ok, what the heck is going on with Pacquiao?

[jahmez]

I gotta bad feeling about this fight. Watch Pacquiao's early fights and you'll be suprised by how cocky he can be. Koncz and the other "advisors" are doing what "advisors" have always done best: uncover and exploit a fighter's hubris. Mike was too emotional, Rocky was too generous and now I believe Manny is going to underestimate Cotto. This is going to be one tough fight.

I was looking through Boxrec yesterday and spotted that Pac is being lined up to fight early next year think they need to beat Cotto first

[JT Rock]

Pac is a pro, and comes in 100000% in shape for every fight, couple that with having one of the best trainers in the biz makes for a far fetched notion Pac all of a sudden is fuking about... This is going to be the hardest test of his career so I wouldnt buy into all the negative rumors...

As far as sparring and looking lackluster, if he is just getting back in the ring, he's going to be a bit rusty naturally. Give it a week or too and the rumor mill will start churning headlines like.... PAC knocks down Arthur Abraham in sparring, Pac took Vitali to school etc... Same ol fodder that goes along with Pac fights these days.

I expect nothing less than the sharpest and best conditioned Pacquiao and Cotto next month

[Nameless]

Personally, I have no insider and absolutely no reliable sources as to confirm or to infirm these rumors. Win or not that match, I still think that Roach was correct to want to train him as far as possible from distractions and I think that to train in a Land where you sit next to God is no good for the focus.

[Taeth]

We've heard this so much for Manny's fights and it never comes to play a factor in the fights. I don't believe he wouldn't train hard for Cotto, this is the biggest challenge of his career, in possibly the biggest spotlight(or second biggest after facing ODLH). Roach says things are fine between them.

This is correct, I've heard these same rumors since he fought Barrera.

Pacquiao has changed a lot since his earlier fights.. He's refined his craft dramatically. He directs his attention so much better both offensively and defensively.. One of Pac's biggest strengths of his last several fights has been his calculation during the fights... You wouldn't use that word to describe his earlier fights..
The same was he is going to have his training and preperation calculated.. I doubt Pac will understimate a fight for the rest of his career... He's a workman and boxing is his love....
The cockyness he once had is more directed now into concentration, although he still loves the dramatic moments in fights as much as anyone..

A NEWS REPORT COMING FROM TAKAMURA HOMELAND NEWS!!!!!

The storm that wrecked havoc on my home land had weakened this past few days but it has hit it's third landfall on my country, and remaining static on the northern part of luzon. The storm which was once a super typhoon has now become a tropical depression, which is the weakened state of any storms. However it remained it's influence in the northern part for more than a week now. Rain falls seems not to end there, resulting to massive flooding of many provinces as well as soil erosions.

And where does pac trains his fight? In Baguio, which is situated in the northern part of luzon. The 2 roads leading to it, kenon road and marcos high way is inaccesible, due to the water level that had reached 4feet!!

Today 100 people have died because of a deadly landslide, burying them. And yesterday,a bridge had collapse because of soil erosion, resulting to 20 vehicles damged, including 3 which fell off the bridge. Good thing the drivers were escorted away to safety and no one was reported injured.

The famous strawberryfields of baguio now had turned in to a vast water shed. Half of the city turning in to an image of the sea. This is where pac trains now, where it seems like the ghouly arm of disaster is knocking at his doors.

The storm however is slowly moving away now in a very slow rate. However there is still strong winds and heavy rainfall that's accompanying it.

Amidst the storm outside i hope jlc gets on his way to pac's training camp just in time and in is well fit. And i hope pac is not distracted much.

Yeah, he shouldn't train in the Philippines. The typhoon is following him. LOL.

I'm a little worried with his training now. Has Pacquaio already returned to Baguio? Last time I saw him in the news was when he was giving some relief goods somewhere in Metro Manila.


What has happened to the Philippines? It has been almost three weeks already and it seems almost all parts of Luzon has been flooded (according to the news I see everyday).
