Pacquiao, family leave for Tokyo, Aussie holiday
MANILA, Philippines - Manny Pacquiao and his family, including adviser Michael Koncz, left for Japan yesterday for a five-day holiday in Tokyo Disneyland. They will then proceed to Australia for an extended vacation.
“We need to take a longer vacation to make the kids happy. Their father had been busy for the past months, but it is well worth it because we’ll be spending long vacation with him,” said Pacquiao’s wife Jinkee.
The Pacquiao couple and children Emmanuel Jr., Michael, Princess and Queenie are fresh from their Christmas respite in Boracay.
Pacquiao, meanwhile, said that he needs to train hard for his next fight against Shane Mosley set May 7, 2011 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Pacquiao said he opted for the May 7 instead of the original April 16 schedule to give him more time to prepare.
“This is not an easy fight. I need at least eight weeks to train for the Mosley fight,” said Pacquiao.
Pacquiao said he will have to talk to trainer Freddie Roach after the holidays about the venue of his training. But he added he will start “some light training” after his long vacation.
