Pacquiao: It’s the fight of my life

Manny Pacquiao called his boxing showdown with Floyd Mayweather ‘the fight of my life’ as he got down to work pounding the streets and gym in Los Angeles.

The eight-division world champion cranked into serious preparations for the May 2 fight after flying in for his training camp from his native Philippines.

Last Monday, Pacquiao ran two miles (3.2 km) and shadow-boxed for two rounds, followed by abdominal work and breakfast of steamed rice, scrambled egg, fish and chicken broth.

Then he napped until noon and had lunch before heading to trainer Freddie Roach's Wild Card Gym, which is strictly off-limits to fans and media during Pacquiao's sessions.

“I will prepare hard for this fight to give the boxing fans the kind of entertainment they want. 

“This is what I consider the real fight of my life,”said Pacquiao, 36.
