 With just a week away from his highly anticipated “Dream Match” with Oscar de la Hoya on December 6, Manny Pacquiao is now fine-tuning the final aspect of his 10-week training: mental focus.
“Ang pisikal na aspeto ng aking training ay halos matatapos na,” the Filipino champion said in his column Kumbinasyon published on PhilBoxing.com. “Lumaki rin po ang aking katawan at proportion ito sa aking height kaya hindi naman tayo madedehado sa timbang.”
Pacquiao said now that the physical training is nearing to its close, his team will gradually lighten his sparring rounds and help him concentrate on his mental focus.
