Pacquiao is loosing his way on winning track

Manny Pacquiao's training camp is ongoing at Baguio City Philippines under his trainer Freddie Roach. When the training camp has begun, distraction is not an issue anymore.It seems Roach is under control but in this few days of training camp roach is unhappy about what is happening as the way it should be. Roach doesn’t like Pacquiao when jogging with picture taking and target shooting with the Philippine military cadets. “That’s one more thing I’m upset about. It’s a nice to do but we’re getting ready for a fight. It’s not gonna happen again. Let s us do our job you know. If they want to do something like that, Sunday is ok but not during training days” Roach said.
There are other concerns about Pacquiao right now. One month before, when Pacquiao is at press tour in San Francisco he played basketball and got his knee injured. Except for boxing, playing basketball with friends is one of Pacquiao's interest. Manny Pacquiao is the man of many interest. He likes acting, singing, billiards, and many more. “I’d take the rim off or pop that basketball I have to, He can’t play basketball, run and train at the same time. Training for hard fight is difficult and he might miss some days of running because of basketball ”.
This is not a good sign for the fans of Pacquiao while Miguel Cotto is sharpening his tool for this fight. If I base may prediction about the number of survey or poll question of many boxing sites including this site, Manny Pacquiao is winning a wide margin in the heart of the boxing community. In reality, he is loosing his way on winning track for this fight. The battle has already began in the training camp. One great training camp can affect the result of the fight. Miguel Cotto is scheduled with 13 full weeks for this fight and Manny Pacquiao is less than 8 weeks with so many distractions around him. Cotto and Pacquiao has almost the same skills, the training camp is the key for this fight. Actually I believe that he is a not great champion anyway. He is good but not great.
