Pacquiao knocks down sparmate in General Santos
MANILA, Philippines - Filipino boxing icon Sen. Manny Pacquiao reportedly knocked down one of his sparring partners last Saturday in General Santos City during his buildup for the “Battle of Brisbane.”
The WBO welterweight title clash with Australian Jeff Horn is less than two weeks away, and the 38-year-old Pacquiao is just about to wrap up his training.
Pacquiao should be nearing peak form if he’s not there yet as the number of sparring rounds go down each day until the Filipino champion flies to Brisbane on June 24.
A member of Team Pacquiao yesterday said Mexican sparring partner Adrian Young went down once from an uppercut during his session with Pacquiao.
It’s a good sign that Pacquiao still has the power behind those punches.
And from Brisbane, word is that Horn’s trainer, Glenn Rushton, spent hours over the weekend going through the tapes of Pacquiao’s most recent fights.
