MANILA, Philippines – Visiting Mexican boxer Juan Manuel Marquez said 8-division champion Manny Pacquiao should better be ready for their third face off on November 12.
“My message to Pacquiao, he needs to train very hard because I'm training very hard… like a warrior,” said Marquez in an interview with ABS-CBN’s Dyan Castillejo.
Showing how serious he really is in training, Marquez jogged for 45 minutes near the Quirino Grandstand shortly after his arrival in Manila.
Marquez will challenge Pacquiao for the WBO welterweight title at a 144-pound catchweight.
He said the added weight does not bother him at all.
“I feel great. I'm ready to fight at 144,” said Marquez.
The last time the two fought was in 2008 at the super featherweight division (130 lbs.).
Marquez’s manager Fernando Beltran said they hired weight experts to help the Mexican boxer maintain his speed even with added weight.
“We have in our training camp doctors and training people that we'll help him diet,” said Beltran.
Marquez also visited Manila Mayor Alfredo Lim Thursday afternoon.
Lim handed him a symbolical “Key to the City of Manila.”
"I don't know how to speak Filipino... but mahal ko kayo," he said to the delight of the Filipinos who attended the event.
At the Planet Jupiter Gym in Makati City, Pacquiao continued his training for the November 12 bout.
The Filipino boxing superstar is set to train for 10 weeks to make sure that he’ll be in 100% condition when he battles the Mexican warrior.
“Siyempre proud siya kung sakaling manalo siya. Tayo naman hindi natin papayagan ‘yun kaya tayo nag-eensayo ng mabuti,” said Pacquiao.
(Of course he’ll be one proud guy if he beats be. We’ll try not to let that happen, that is why we’re training hard.)
