MAKATI CITY ? Filipino boxing legend now Senator Manny Pacquiao flies out to Los Angeles Saturday evening to conclude the second phase of his training camp at Wild Card Boxing Club of Hall of Fame trainer Freddie Roach.
?I am excited to climb and fight atop the ring once again. I really miss boxing,? Pacquiao told Philboxing.com Friday evening.
Pacquiao and his team will depart Manila via Philippine Airlines (PAL) around 9:00 p.m. Saturday.
Pacquiao?s Canadian adviser Michael Koncz bared Pacquiao was scheduled to jog early morning Saturday, eat his breakfast afterward then take a nap to obtain reserve energy.
?He will go to the gym early, say around 1:00 p.m. to have ample time to prepare for his flight around 9:00 p.m.? Koncz said.
This will be the last sparring session of Pacquiao in the Philippines.
Roach claimed Pacquiao?s sparring session will resume Tuesday next week at the Wild Card Gym against undefeated Junior Welterweight boxer Jose Ramirez and against another still unknown sparring mate.
Team Pacquiao ordered a lockdown of the gym for the last three days of his training at the Elorde Boxing Gym in Pasay City.
Training session was also declared off limits to the media.
?We have to do this to ensure he doesn?t get sick a few days before the Nov. 5 fight against Vargas. Coach Freddie had been complaining about the presence of many people at the gym during the training session? Koncz said.
Pacquiao?s wife, Jinkee, will accompany the Pinoy boxing hero and his entourage in going to the US.
A day after the fight, Pacquiao and his team will fly back to Manila to attend the resumption of the Senate session.
