Manny Pacquaio training footage for Mayweather rematch shows warning signs for the American.
For anyone that doubts Manny Pacquiao’s ability, motivation or interest in boxing, they would want to think again on that.
At 47-years-old only last year he boxed Mario Barrios, a then 30-year-old world champion, to a draw.
He should have got the decision and should be a world champion now.
He has more ring smarts than most of the young welterweights out there and is training on and off in the US again nearer the time zone of his next big fight.
Against Floyd Mayweather this September — that will be good for his body clock as well at that age.
He is back on the road putting in the cardio and stamina work early already for Mayweather right now well ahead of September as he builds to then.
He is still boxing fast and using good angels in his training and has all the moves mostly he always had.
There’s no reason why he can’t give Mayweather some problems when they box next September.
He is having an exhibition bout first as a tune up to get ready and keep sharp and stay active.
A smart thing to do.
The early Pacquiao training footage for the Mayweather rematch shows him on his own putting in those hard yards on the road. Something he knows too well but it will be important that he has that gas tank ready for then.
He knows Floyd Mayweather is no Marrio Barrios or Ryan Garcia, whom beat Barrios recently.
Mayweather is a much different proposition and Pacquiao knows it, he will need to be able to box at his best at high intensity for either 10 or 12 rounds (whatever the fight is agreed at) to have a chance.
Time will tell of Pacman can be the first to challenge that Mayweather unbeaten record.
