And if you’ve been following Pacquiao’s career, there’s really nothing to worry about when he clashes with the ambitious Larios despite his limited hours at the gyms.

Trainers as a rule bemoan the compromises their fighters make as they fulfill their obligations in this deeply irrational profession. And Manny’s lack of urgency in checking in early at his Hollywood camp sometimes resulted in listless gym works

However, training hassles are what his chief handler Freddie Roach calls a ‘thing of the past’ as Manny wraps-up his heavy work load…

Roach insists his prized ward will launch an early assault on the Mexican’s ring arsenal—a wise offensive move that could result in an early ending of this quality match-up.

I have yet to meet someone who is convinced that the slugfest between two of the world’s top superfeatherweights will go the distance.

With a plum November assignment against Erik Morales, it behooves the Pacman to wreck whatever battle plans Larios has laid out for their July 2 face off.

True to form, the crowd-pleasing Cotabato southpaw vowed to unleash his tested haymakers on Oscar so as to retain his bragging rights as the best jr. lightweight of the universe.

Pacquiao-Morales 111, a certified thriller entails untold riches and such a huge payday could only spur the GenSan marvel to get rid of the blocks that could bar him from facing the terrible Mexican in a rubber bout.

The lone impediment standing in the way for Pacquiao acquiring such fortune is the Guadalajara mauler who has been training like Secretariat in a frenzied bid to pull an upset.

Larios, who is bold, tough and owner of a right that could explode on impact is unfazed by the odds stacked against him.

The former two-time superbantamweight champion who is winding up his hectic training says his excellent preparations has instilled the confidence he needs which is “more than enough to pull this one out.”

As we await the melee which is expected to hit the roof ratings-wise or attendance-wise, demands for tickets has gone “bonkers” prompting padrinos of frantic fight fans to go underground else they’ll go shirtless what with the prohibitive cost of ringside stubs..

These days, even sports Editors are making themselves scarce for lack of the usual ‘complis’ for their millions of readers wanting to see the huge fight free.

Unbelievable!
