ryujin6190 Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 INSIDE INFO: ARUM'S ASSESSMENT OF MANNY'S TRAINING NOT GOODarticle by DEEPTHROAT I write for a newspaper in the US and a popular sports online site, which will remain anonymous. I have published "insider information" here on MTC in the past...information that I received from insiders within Pacquiao's circle (in or around it). Below is information I want to share with you from sources that will remain unnamed. Anyway, why do you think Bob Arum was telling everyone on media day that Manny needs to train harder? I have inside information regarding a conversation between Arum and Roach right before Media day. Apparently, Arum has seen "footage" and heard reports of Cotto's training which is going very smoothly and very effectively. The gist of Cotto's training is that he has never looked so sharp at this stage of his training. Cotto's team has dissected all of Manny's relevant fights and has prepared multiple strategies that will nullify Pacquiao's in-and-out attack strategy. Furthermore, Cotto's attack will include fighting both in the normal stance and southpaw stance that aims to confuse Pacquiao during the early, middle and late rounds (if necessary). Upon seeing Manny's sparring performance on Media day, Arum concluded that Manny has a long way to go in his preparations in such a SHORT AMOUNT OF TIME before the Nov. 14 fight. Arum told Roach (based on Arum's reports on Cotto's training) that Manny will have no chance to beat Cotto, GIVEN Pacquiao's erratic, circus-like training camp. Arum observed that Manny is SO OVERCONFIDENT that he will beat Cotto. Roach has reported to Arum that Manny's supporters (team Pacquiao, politicians, advisers, media, etc.) have convinced Manny that he will beat Cotto, regardless of whether he trains hard or not, etc. Long story short, Manny's head has been corrupted by over confidence from his surroundings. Hence, Manny has embraced all the circus that surrounds him everyday in an effort to also boost his political aspirations next year.This is another reason why Arum has said that a "rematch" may happen after this fight. It's not because Cotto will demand for it...it's because he sees Manny losing and Manny finally waking up and wanting a rematch. Anyway, Roach and Arum actually wanted to move training camp to Los Angeles as soon as possible (even before their scheduled departure for LA), after seeing the daily circus in Baguio. However, team Pacquiao and Manny himself has insisted against that. Pacquiao is currently ill-prepared despite news saying that he will knockout Cotto and will be too fast for him, etc. For the first time, Roach is floating false information that he thinks Manny will knockout Cotto. The true underlying status is Pacquiao is behind schedule and has a knee problem to deal with. Roach did this because to make Team Cotto think that his fighter is in top shape (which he's not). Roach is playing chess with Cotto.Manny really needs to get his act together or there will be no mega-fight with Mayweather. Another food for thought: Mayweather is looking at another option to fight someone else either in December or January (perhaps Moseley) in anticipation of a Manny loss in November!With so many distractions (and not to mentioned the typhoons, the death of Rod Nazario), these things have a big effect on Pacman come fight night. From the way I see it, Cotto is the more focused fighter (compared to Manny's training, which is being swarmed by the media). I'm a big Manny fan, but if his team will not transfer his training to the Wild Card gym in CA, most likely (and hopefully we do not want this to happen) that Cotto will pull an upset. Pacman might end up similar to what Rocky Balboa (in the third movie) had experienced (when he was badly beaten by Clubber Lang). Quote Link to comment

Palakol Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 sa visa yata ang problema. balita ko sa 26 na raw ang balik ni Pacman sa Wild Card sa Hollywood (isasara ang gym). ensayo siya sandali roon, tapos pupunta sila sa Vegas mga isang linggo bago ang laban. sa tingin ko, mabagal si Cotto. pero hindi rin natin masabi, tinumba rin nya si Judah noon. hintayin na lang natin ang laban.

anton7270me Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 kahit papano gusto ko parin manalo si pacman kaso mukha nga kulang ensayo sana maging efective pa rin Magtiwala na lang tayo mga kapatid. "Circus" nga tawag nung kinalaban nya si ODLH pero sino mag-aakalang dominate nya buong rounds. Goodtimes :evil: :mtc: Quote Link to comment
john2004 Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 one thing about cotto - napakabagal niya kaya wag na kayomag alala sa laban. consider it done win number 50 na kay mannysa nov. 15. tungkol sa mayweather fight nila ni manny, buti pa pumayag nasi manny, arum, roach na kung anong hatian sa pera ang gustoni mayweather, pumayag na sila for thye sake of matuloy na lang ang laban habang nasa prime pa si manny. at nangmasaksihan na nang buong mundo ang unang talo niya.sige na, wag nang magpatigasan pa ng pride, give na lang simanny sa gusto ni floyd at nang matuloy na sila. kumbaga, ito ang unang laban ni manny para sa karangalan ngbansang pilipinas - hindi sa pera. ang nakikita ko kasi dito -pinapatanda na muna ni gayweather si manny hindi halata,akala niya di ko alam iniisip niya.
