Pacquiao vs. Cotto Boxing Fight Update

September 24, 2009 · 2 Comments

Let’s have an update about the Pacquiao vs. Cotto fight this November 14 at MGM Grand in Las Vegas especially Pacquiao. Pacquiao started his training since last week but not too seriously a training just tune up only. Pacquiao himself decided to train in Baguio City, Philippines because he said that the weather condition in Baguio is good for him just like in the US. Some boxing analysts were concerned of Pacquiao why he decided to train here in the Philippines. Okay that’s good but one thing I saw is that there’s are a lot of destructions during his training that causes the People’s Champ not to concentrate to his training. One time I saw when Pacquiao conduct his jogging exercise in the Burnham Park around the City were fans and media are also behind him, following him where he goes, taking some pictures were after him and he entertain them to have some interview. And there also an event when he doing his set-ups where hundreds of people surrounds him and watch him. Even to the gym so many people and media are going there to take pictures with there idol and the media interviewed him. I don’t blame the fans either the media people because that’s their job. It seems Pacquiao don’t take he’s fight against Cotto seriously. It’s responsibility of team Pacquiao to isolate him to those people and to concentrate first to his training, because for me Cotto is not that too easy fighter to take down though. Miguel Cotto will not hand over his welterweight belt easily to Pacquiao. And I know Pacquiao knows these also. In the first place I don’t really agree that Pacquiao will train their in Baguio City, so many destructions. Though Manny has a freedom to choose where ever he wants to go to train though I respect that. Now the head trainers of Pacquiao coach Freddy Roach arrive yesterday in Baguio City I hope he advised Team Pacquiao and Manny himself to concentrate to his training and limit the people and the media coming in. Pacquiao vs. Cotto match is scheduled on November 14, 2009. Pacquiao vs. Cotto will be another great boxing fight to watch it will determine if Pacquiao is still be the pound-for-pound king and he will be able to make a boxing match with Mayweather because that what fans really wanted to see.
