LOS ANGELES—With his senatorial duties behind him as the Philippine Senate is on recess, Senator Manny Pacquaio is zeroing in on his November fight versus Jessie Vargas for the WBO Welterweight title.

The “Fighting Senator” fined tuned his conditioning with a jog from his home to Pan Pacific Park, a good 2.5 miles distance just at the crack of dawn last Thursday and Saturday. The former pound- for- pound king ran around the park twice, did some hoops before diving in for some ab work.  His uphill training at the Griffith Park was done last Wednesday and Friday. We had the privilege of running with him at the park and was also allowed to join him on his ab work- outs.

Throng of fans witnessed the 6- division champ carry on his routine.

Pacquiao’s championship tiff is this Saturday at the Thomas and Mack Center in Las Vegas.
