The 8-Division World Champion and currently Senator of the Philippines is scheduled to leave the country today to continue his training camp in Los Angeles.
The 40-year-old Manny Pacquiao battles for the unified welterweight crown against the 30-year-old Keith Thurman in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Pacquiao started sparring and training in Manila in early June. Good News Pilipinas interviewed Manny Pacquiao and his team during a break from Pacman’s Manila training at Elorde Gym.

Manny Pacquiao (MP): Maganda ito.
(This fight can) prove also that at the age of 40 I can still fight.
