LOS ANGELES – Puspusan ang pagpapalakas ng resistensiya ng pambansang kamao Manny Pacquiao bilang pangontra sa mas bata at walang talong si Keith Thurman kung kaya’t mas pinapatibay nito ngayon ang kanyang cardio sakaling tumagal ang bakbakan sa ring.

Sa isang exclusive interview ng Bombo Radyo sa running partner ni Pacman na si Mandirigma Angeles sa LA, ibinahagi nito ang araw-araw na ensayo ng fighting senator kung saan ang pag-jog ang ginagawa sa umaga at sparring session naman sa hapon.

Kamakailan lamang ay nagdesisyon na rin si Manny na tumakbo na pauwi patungo ng kanyang mansion sa halip na sumakay ng kotse. Liban dito napansin din ni Angeles na dinagdagan pa ang oras sa pag-shadow boxing ng Pinoy ring icon.

Bagamat 10 taon ang pagitan nila ni Thurman abanse naman pagdating sa bilis kung pag-usapan ang eight-division world champion.

Sinasabing kailangan na lamang nito na patibayin ang kanyang stamina sapagkat hindi umano birong kalaban ang wala pang talong 30-anyos na si Thurman.

Kumpiyansya naman ang kampo ni Pacman pagdating sa timbang ng senador na walang magiging problema.

Sa edad na 40-anyos nais pa ring patunayan ni Pacman na kaya pa nitong lumaban at manalo sa mga mas batang boksingero.

Una na nitong pinatunayan ang dominanteng panalo niya sa Amerikanong si Adrien Broner noong Enero.

Kaya naman sinisigurado ni Pacquiao na mahihigitan pa niya ang kondisyon ni Thurman upang makuha ang WBA super welterweight belt sa magaganap na pagtutuos nila sa MGM Grand Arena sa July 21.

Samantala nito lamang nakalipas na linggo ay agaw pansin ang muling pagkikita nina Pacquiao at ang retired Mexican legend na si Eric “El Terrible” Morales.

Kung maalala naging alamat ang tunggalian ng dalawa na kabilang sa pinakamatinding rivalry sa boxing.

Naganap ang pagdalaw ni Morales sa US$10 million na mansyon upang magkaroon din ng panayam sa kaugnay sa nalalapit na laban ni Pacman.

“Great to see my good friend Erik Morales,” ani Pacquiao sa kanyang Twitter post na humirit pa ng biro na hashtag “#MoralesPacquiao4.”

Kitang-kita ang saya ni Manny sa pagdayo sa kanya at mistulang reunion ng dating kalaban na ngayon ay kanyang itinuturing na malapit na kaibigan.

Inilarawan pa ng Pinoy ring idol si Morales bilang isang mabangis na mandirigma sa loob ng ring.

Matatandaang natalo ni Morales ang eight division world champion sa kanilang unang laban.

Ngunit pinatunayan ni Pacquiao na siya ang tunay na kampyon nang ipinanalo nito ang ikalawa at ikatlo nilang harapan sa ring.

Canelo Alvarez ex-promoter Eddie Hearns predicts that Terrence Crawford will retire after his victory vs Israil Madrimov last August 3, 2024 in Los Angeles.

Crawford is now the 4-division champ after winning by unanimous decision.

However, Hearns said that three fighters are a must fight against Crawford before hanging his gloves – Vergil Ortiz, Jaron Ennis, and Canelo.

“I don’t think Crawford wants a Boots fight. I don’t think Crawford will fight again unless he fights Canelo Alvarez because he’s got money, he’s getting on [in age],” Hearns revealed.

He added that Crawford ducks Ortiz. He also mocked him for getting lucky with the scoring for his fight against Madrimov.

Hearns underscored that 36 year old Crawford is craving for mega-money, mega-fights, and real legacy fights that is why he does not like to fight the undefeated Ennis. He furthered that 27 year old Ennis is like the young Crawford version that is why he is skipping him.

Meanwhile, Crawford still hates Ennis because he is overrated.
