SARANGANI Representative and boxing champ Manny “Pacman” Pacquiao is now in Baguio City for his one-month training in preparation for his fight against “Sugar” Shane Mosley on May 7 in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Reports said Monday that the Pacman arrived in the summer capital Sunday night with members of the Team Pacquiao.
Pacquiao will reportedly undergo training at Santa Lucia farm and at Teachers Camp.
The boxing icon will not be at the Burnham Park to avoid the crowd.
Pacquiao chose the bout because he believed Mosley is the most accomplished and famous boxer in the field of candidates, which included Juan Manuel Marquez and welterweight champion Andre Berto.
Pacquiao (52-3-2, 38 KOs) is on top of the boxing world after trouncing Antonio Margarito in a unanimous decision in Texas on November 13.
The 32-year-old Filipino congressman has won 13 straight fights while claiming world titles in an astonishing eight weight classes, most recently taking the WBC light middleweight belt with his win over Margarito. (Sunnex)
