Los Angeles, CA - The largest park in the City of Angels once again opened its doors and trails to the world's most famous boxer this morning (Monday).
The 4,310 acre Griffith Park in the eastern Santa Monica mountain range welcomed back boxing's first eight division champ, Manny Pacquiao as he did his familiar morning run and stretching exercises.
Pacquiao arrived at around seven o'clock Monday morning and started his first workout in the United States with members of his team. He ran from the bottom of the park all the way to its top with brother Bobby and a couple of other runners. He then proceed to do some stretching and warm up exercises which was supervised by assistant trainers and long time friends, Buboy Fernandez and Nonoy Neri.
Pacquiao's first trip at the park this year lasted for about two hours as fans gather around the boxer to watch him train. Observers noted that the boxer was in a jovial mood during the whole time he was there and went on with the scheduled run and round of exercises. Pacquiao just arrived two days ago from the Philippines to resume his training for his upcoming bout next month. Pacquiao defends his WBO welterweight belt against undefeated challenger Timothy Bradley on June 9th at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas.
After his morning jog, Pacquiao then returned to his Palazzo apartment to eat and rest as he prepares to continue his training at Coach Freddie Roach's Wild Card Gym in the afternoon.
