Apparently he was supposed to arrive in Los Angeles but is a week late.... Full article where max emphasis put on boxing. Roach: [FONT=Arial,Helvetica,Geneva,Swiss,SunSans-Regular] "He has too many people in his ear telling him it's an easy fight, which I don't believe it is," said Roach, who believes the native of Chicago brings a whole new set of problems for his boxer. "Obviously, style-wise, it's a better fight for Manny's style because we're facing a puncher. Marquez is clearly a great counterpuncher, and with Mannys aggressiveness, the best way to beat Manny, if he can, is to counterpunch him. Not everybody can do that though." [/FONT]
Diaz should not be underestimated. I believe Pacquiao will win very convincingly, but there's a few things I see that could potentially give Pacquiao problems. One is Diaz's physical strength which could force Pacquiao to fight backing up. Two is Diaz's inside fighting ability. He throws shorter punches on the inside than Pacquiao and doesn't need the same kind of range to operate. Pacquiao needs to stay focused. I know Filipinos love their basketball, but it's time for boxing right now.
He seems to be taking things lightly.. I hope he does NOT get a WAKE UP call (losing by a KO!) before he focuses again!
Have you Played Full court basketball lately??? Playing that will really give you a real workout. I'm not worried for Pac.
Every Pac fight we have to hear about how he's coming to camp late, that he's not focused, and that he's playing basketball. Pac has been fighting for a long time now. He knows what he has to do. He'll be ready come fight night.
:thumbsup , I wish I could play against him because I'm 100% percent confident I'll beat him with my hops and speed
