Guys I want to cry. If reports like these are true, I am siding with Papa Alex. Aside from being cute, I think his approach is more scientific than Buboy's or Neri's. :fire Quotes like this give me tremors: This content is protected This content is protected This content is protected http://philboxing.com/news/story-46765.html
I highly doubt Buboy knows what he's talking about when it comes to strength and conditioning. Ariza wouldn't put Pacquiao on a typical bodybuilding programin order to gain weight.
That's precisely my point. Papa Alex has finished and mastered a degree and is applying it in what he is in for Congressmanny. This one really sucks big time. If Congressmanny woke up at a 141 pound weight and ate all he could, at fight night the most I see he gains will be up to 145 or 146 lbs! Margarito will be on the upwards of 165! That's a twenty or more pounds difference for a 60% prepared Congressmanny to bear.
There's only so much you can bulk up, before you lose speed. I agree with Buboy and Pac that he should mainly concentrate on his best asset, which is speed. A 20 pound advantage is not easy to deal with however, and it might wear Pac down if this fight lasts into the late rounds. We'll see tomorrow, but Margarito would have to land cleanly on Pac without getting blasted in return, or the weight advantage won't mean much.
It's not like 5lbs would make a huge difference anyway. Pac would be at a big weight disadvantage anyway on fight night, and might as well come in at his fastest. He knows his own body better, and a good trainer listens to their client.
We're talking about margarito here...relax with this ****iing worrysome bull****. Spend your money...support team pacman today!!!!
The articles says that Pac didn't have the time to adjust to Ariza's conditioning because Pac is so busy with other activities. Ariza is not trying to bulk up Pac. These are plyometric exercises and not weight lifting. Buboy is wrong here. Ariza didn't get his degree specifically for this for nothing.
That added weight will do Margarito no good. Pac is gonna blitz him. There is a reason why they have catchweights. Pac will have the advantage because Margarito has to lose weight to get down to the catchweight limit. Pac does not have to lose weight. He will be strong, and healthy
Buboy must know about bodybuilding! Are you kidding me? Look how big he's built his body up, man! He's ****ing huge!
