Manny Pacquiao’s promoter, Bob Arum and Mexican promoter Fernando Beltran will be flying to the Philippines on October 16 to host a media workout on October 18 at 1pm. Pacquiao is currently in the thick of training in the Philippines’ summer capital that is five-to-six hours from Manila by land has he prepares for the vacant junior middleweight title bout Nov. 13 (HBO PPV) at Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, Texas.

Assuming Margarito brings his “A” game into the ring, this fight is going to be a big time war.

“It’s going to be real aggressive and physical,” said Pacquiao’s strength and conditioning Coach Alex Ariza. “Hopefully Manny chooses not to stand in front of Margarito and exchange. The thing is Manny’s got balls. He’s not a runner by nature, he’s a fighter by nature. At some point Manny’s going to say, ‘Let’s get it on.’ He does that with everyone. He’s not going to take a step back. Margarito’s not going to step back. That’s when the fireworks will start.”

HBO’s four-part “24/7 Pacquiao/Margarito” series following the buildup to the fight premiers Oct. 23 at 10:30 p.m. ET/PT.

  1. I tought margarito was going to get knocked out by manny, but after seeing that last picture from his training camp now i think he has a chance, he’s looking in terrific shape!

    Go Margarito!

  2. Why are we supposed to laugh at Manny, if we have in Manny a fighter that has always gives us exiting and action pack fights, we need more fighters like him in the sport.
    I’m for Margarito on this one, but can only take my hat off for Manny and his accomplishments in the ring.

  3. @Jonny boy,correction ,manny will take a nice ass whooping after putting a hell of a fight Hahahahahahaha.
    The TORNADO is brewing and it reaches TX it will wreac havoc upon manny’s hopes.hahaha.
    The typhoon will crushed by the Mexican TORNADO and sent back as a gentle breeze.Hahahahahaha.The congressman will attend sessions with sunglasses for 2 months .hahahaha.I see Roach throwing the white towel

  4. people ,Margarito is going to punish manny badly.manny is going to be an object of sympathy .His face is prone to cuts and swollen
    just wait to see and laugh at manny.
    It’s about time for manny to be punished .No more Hatton,jaded Cotto and aged Oscar.
    The TORNADO is going to put manny in his place .

  5. lol Maybe but you have to give him credit for taking on the challenge. Eight weight classes is unheard of. It makes me wonder if its hard for him to maintain the weight. Pacman got alot of heart, I wish there were more boxers with his kind of heart and skill out there.
