More verbal tussle between the camp of Oscar De La Hoya and Manny Pacquiao in this recent story written by Marc Anthony Reyes. One thing is for sure, this is going to be a fight that you don’t want to miss.

Excerpt:

The fight is still two months away, but Oscar De La Hoya is already throwing verbal jabs at the man whose derisive taunt challenged him into fighting again.

And it’s not Manny Pacquiao, but Freddie Roach.

Just before hitting the second stop of a fight promotion tour in Chicago, De La Hoya boasted that he has a training headstart of one and half months over Pacquiao, and that he’s just 5 lbs away from the 147 lb catch weight.

The 10-time, six-division champ also took a dig at Pacquiao’s trusted corner man, saying the two-time Trainer of the Year got it all wrong during his sensational split decision loss to Floyd Mayweather Jr. last year.

“He (Roach) knows my training regimen, but he doesn’t know everything,” De La Hoya was quoted by thesweetscience.com.
