By the time you read this, Manny Pacquiao will have already begun his morning routine for his second day of training. As usual, the day started off with breakfast, this time consisting of bangus rice, eggs, and some fish, to fuel the intense workouts that will follow. Yesterday, MPBoxing.com was able to bring fans exclusive video from both sessions of Manny Pacquiao's first day of training, and they're looking forward to getting even more exclusive footage today, tomorrow, and the rest of the camp as the road to Shane Mosley continues.
Day 1 was all about loosening up the muscles and joints; getting the blood flowing back into mind, as well as the body, in order to focus on what lies ahead. The question is, what does lie ahead? What will Shane Mosley bring to the table when he steps into the ring on May 7, 2011 to face Manny Pacquiao at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, Nevada. It's a fight that many in the media have questioned and criticized, but despite the criticism, tickets sold out in record time. In fact, it was the fastest sell out in Top Rank's history of promoting big fights. Regardless of what may have been written by the media, the world wants to see what lies ahead.
Still, the question remains, can Shane Mosley bring it, and if he does, will it be enough to dethrone the pound-for-pound king? NBA star Kobe Bryant once said, "The reason the Lakers have suffered so many losses this year is because so many teams play them as hard as they possibly can." In other words, the Lakers bring out the best in everyone because it's easy to get up for the best and challenge yourself against the Champion. Likewise, I believe "Sugar" Shane Mosley will be his best for this fight.
Make no mistake, Shane Mosley has the tools to beat Pacquiao. He's a great boxer who has speed and power. He's never been knocked out before in his Hall Of Fame career and possesses one-punch knockout power to lay out any opponent he faces. So perhaps a better question to ask is will Manny "PACMAN" Pacquiao be ready for "Sugar" Shane Mosley? That's what we intend to find out!
MPBoxing.com, in conjunction with FightHype.com, will be bringing you "The Road To Mosley", an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at Manny Pacquiao's training leading up to his May 7th showdown with "Sugar" Shane Mosley. Manny personally told me that he considers Shane Mosley to be a fierce opponent and someone he has to be 100% ready for, so you'll witness the heart and dedication of a Champion as Pacquiao embarks on the most intense training camp that anyone has ever seen on.
The question I pose to fans is what chance does this fight have of going to the scorecards? With both men fighting for everything they have, both fighting for their legacy, and both coming right at each other, will the judges even be necessary or is this a fight a lock to end in a knockout? Be sure to check out all of the videos we'll be bringing you to help you answer that question. Visit www.mpboxing.com for much more.
