MANILA, Philippines - Five days before his "dream match" with Oscar dela Hoya, Filipino boxing champ Emmanuel "Manny" Pacquiao insisted he is "okay and relaxed."
Pacquiao said he has not been placed on a diet, though he said he still needs to lose one pound to make the 146-pound limit.
"Wala akong kabang nararamdaman. Handa ako, ready ako, especially spiritually, I'm prepared (I feel no fear. I'm ready, I'm ready, especially spiritually. I'm prepared)," he said in an interview on dzBB radio, while en route to Las Vegas.
However, he said he recognizes the importance of his fight this coming Sunday (Manila time).
Pacquiao thanked his countrymen for their support and prayers, and asked them to continue praying for his victory this weekend.
"Okay naman ako, relaxed ako ngayon (I'm okay, I'm relaxed)," he said.
"Walang diet ngayon, pwede nyo ako kausapin (I'm not on a diet yet, so you can talk to me)," he added, referring to his short temper when on a diet. - GMANews.TV
