Simula sa susunod na linggo, hati na ang oras ni Filipino fighting Senator Manny Pacquiao.
Magsisimula nang sumabak sa ensayo ang bagong halal na Senador para sa kanyang pagbabalik lona kontra American World Boxing Organization (WBO) welterweight champion Jessie Vargas.
Pumayag ang eight-division world champion sa kontratang inalok ni Top Rank CEO Bob Arum para sa kanyang laban kay Vargas sa Nobyembre 5, sa Thomas and Mack Center sa Las Vegas.
Ang laban ay eksakto sa kalendaryo ng Senado para sa recess.
Goodbye PBA? John Amores, tinanggalan na ng professional license!
"It will just be for the purpose of doing away with rustiness and excess muscle Manny developed during the three-month interval following his last fight (against Timothy Bradley) last May, " pahayag ni Michael Koncz, business manager ni Pacman.
"We're still looking for a boxing gym near the senate building where the Senator can start the gym phase of training maybe two weeks from now as training slowly shifts to high gear," aniya.
"The idea is for Manny not to miss sessions, which he promised the Filipinos even before he was elected to the senate. There is also the possibility of holding his preparations in his own gym in General Santos City during non-session days.”
Naunang nabanggit ang pagreretiro matapos ang unanimous decision na panalo kay Tim Bradley nitong Abril.
Ngunit, ang halimuyak ng aksiyon sa boxing ay hindi kaagad natalikuran ni Pacquiao.
"After all, sessions are held three times a week from Monday to Wednesday, so, he can fly to GenSan Wednesday evening and workout there Thursday to Saturday," sambit ni Koncz.
"Nothing to worry about. Manny's always been very busy all his life and he always finds time to rest and do more things.
"He can, for instance, sleep in his senate office after his early morning roadwork then attend whatever committee meetings there are mid morning and the session in the afternoon. No problem really.”
Nakatakda ang press conference para sa naturang laban sa Setyembre 8, sa Beverly Hotel sa Los Angeles.
