Celebrated trainer Freddie Roach a short while ago spoke to us and expressed his elation over his prized possession Manny Pacquiao?s electoral victory over Roy Chiongbian in the lone congressional district of Sarangani.
Roach sent a message to Pacquiao through us saying ?Congratulations Manny. I am happy. Great job.?
He also said that WBA light welterweight champion Amir Khan wanted to convey his congratulations to Pacquiao whom he has credited for giving him some useful tips and building up his confidence for his fights against Marco Antonio Barrera and his title shot against Andriy Kotelnik.
Khan at times was a sparring partner of Pacquiao and has indicated that someday perhaps he would have a chance to fight the pound-for-pound king.
Roach said that Khan was in great shape and ?will knock out Paulie Malignaggi in six rounds? in their title clash on Saturday in New York?s Madison Square Garden.
