THREE days after posting a masterful 12-round victory Sunday for the WBC superfeatherweight championship, Manny Pacquiao, is raring to go back in training for his much-awaited fight against the Mexican Erik ?El Terible? Morales.
?Baka sa August balik-ensayo na ako,? Pacquiao said in a victory party at the Mandaluyong Head Office of San Miguel Corporation which hosted a ?Magpapa-inom si Manny? gathering for media and friends Wednesday.
?Talagang paghahandaan ko nang husto si Morales,? added the Filipino boxing icon who is a franchisee and an endorser of SMC and the Company?s various products.
Pacquiao has vowed to send Morales into retirement after the Mexican said he was never hurt by the Filipino in their last encounter won by the latter by a 10th-round stoppage. Morales also said Pacquiao became famous only because he fought him.
With hardly any marks on him from his encounter with former world bantamweight champion Oscar Larios, Pacquiao again expressed his gratitude to his countrymen?s support in the ?Mano a Mano? classic last Sunday.
?Masaya po ako at nakapag-bigay na naman ako ng kasiyahan kahit papaano sa ating mga kababayan, tulad din ng pagbibigay ng kasayahan ng San Miguel sa milyun-mil-yong tumatangkilik sa mga produkto nito tulad ng San Miguel Beer, Ginebra San Miguel, Magnolia Fresh Milk, Magnolia Ice Cream at marami pang iba,? he said.
?Makakaasa po kayo na lalo kong pagbubutihin ang aking training, at sisikapin kong muling bigyan ng kasiyahan at inspirasyon ang ating mga kababayan,? Pacquiao added.
