Breakingnews: Pacquiao Start high-altitude training - MANILA, Philippines – Boxing champ Manny Pacquiao started training early Monday morning, not at the local sports complex but at the highway in Maasim, Sarangani province where he began his high-altitude training.
"Iba kasi 'yung tumatakbo ka sa flat," explained assistant trainer Buboy Fernandez. "Sa high altitude training kasi, unti-unting sumisikip 'yung hangin."
Pacquiao ran by himself for almost an hour, up and down the Maasim Highway which is estimated to be 10 kilometers long. He went straight to a private beach in Barangay Tinoto.
According to members of Team Pacquiao, the boxer's conditioning is reaching a high level with just a little over a month to go before his final fight against Timothy Bradley Jr. on April 9.

"Ibig sabihin wala ng problema 'yung kundisyon niya, 'yung stamina niya," said Fernandez.
Pacquiao stretched, shadow-boxed, and did other routines at the beach while showing no signs of slowing down.
"Inaasahan natin na mas magiging matindi na ang training natin," he said.
Pacquiao is set to leave for the United States on March 15 for the second phase of his training camp.
