I'll be ready for whatever Pacquiao brings

Training in Mexico City in the renowned Romanza Gym, where so many great Mexican fighters have come from, has helped me prepare for the biggest fight of my career, my third fight with Manny Pacquiao

I believe that Pacquiao has become a much complete fighter, but his speed and power are still his most dangerous attributes.

I don’t believe I won the first fight; I am sure I won them both, I just did not get the decision. I will do the same that I have always done against him, fight with intelligence, patience and counterpunch. My preparation will be different because I will fight at a higher weight. I have to make some changes in my diet and make sure I can still have speed and conditioning at the higher weight.”

HBO’s all-access series “24/7” premieres an all-new edition when “24/7 Pacquiao-Marquez” debuts Saturday at 10 p.m. ET/PT. The four-part series will air for three consecutive Saturdays before the finale airs the night before the championship showdown Nov. 12 in Las Vegas.
