LOS ANGELES, CA – Sa harap nang nagbubunying kababayan, tinapos ni People’s champion Manny Pacquiao ang pagsasanay dito Lunes ng umaga (Martes sa Manila) bago tumulak patungong Las Vegas para sa pinananabikang duwelo kay World Boxing Organization welterweight kingpin Jessie Vargas sa Nobyembre 5 sa Thomas and Mack Center.

Inilarawan ni chief handler Freddie Roach ang ensayo na ‘very light’ na binubuo lamang ng takbo at tatlong round ng sparring.

Hindi rin napigil ang eight-division titleholder na tumakbo paakyat sa Griffith Park kung saan naghihintay ang kanyang mga tagahanga at kababayan, ang ilan ay nakisabay pa sa kanya sa pagtakbo.

“No gym activity will be held starting Tuesday, except, perhaps some light exercises, which Manny can do before running outdoor anyway,” pahayag ni Roach.

“We in the training team believe we’ve covered everything the past six weeks Manny’s working out.”

“No need for him to extend the hard work and sacrifices he’s undergone with only a week remaining before the fight,” paniniguro ng Hall of Fame trainer.

“At this stage of preparation, we have to avoid things that can lead to injuries and other form of sickness to Manny.”

“His being a senator exposed him to meeting many people, especially when we were in Manila where he was contaminated with cold and cough, that forced him to cut short his daily training schedule or completely cancel the schedule,” aniya.

“Even here in the U. S., people continue stalking him, following him wherever he goes unmindful of the possibility of Manny getting sick that might result in the postponement of the fight,” pahayag ni Roach.

Tinapos ni Pacquiao ang krusyal na aspeto ng paghahanda nitong Sabado nang tuldukan ang 90 round ng sparring, 200 round sa mitts at 3,000 miles ng roadwork, dahilan para kumpiyansang ipahayag ni Roach na handa na sa bakbakan si Pacman.

“Ours preparation for the fight is one of the best held in 15 years. And that’s the reason why Manny reached his peak this early.

“Yeah, we’re ready to rumble,”pahayag ni strength and conditioning guru Justin Fortune.

“We’ve just reinstated Manny to his old fighting form in the camp,”aniya.

Katuwang ni Fortune sina assistant trainers Buboy Fernandez, Nonoy Neri, Roger “Haplas” Fernandez, at Marvin Somodio.
