CEBU CITY--Renowned trainer Freddie Roach arrived in Cebu minutes ago, ready to put order into the training of his superstar pupil Manny Pacquiao who is currently training at Wakee Salud's gym here.
"He's here!" declared Salud in a call to Philboxing.com.
Roach was met at the Mactan-Cebu International Airport by Wakee Salud, and was immediately whisked on a waiting SUV to the Waterfront Cebu City Hotel where Pacquiao and Buboy Fernandez are billeted. Roach will also stay at the hotel the entire duration of his stay.
The two sparmates for Pacquiao are due to arrive on Sunday, according to GMA's Chino Trinidad.
Roach and Pacquiao will work out this afternoon at Salud's newly-refurbished gym.
