BAGUIO CITY -- Jinkee Pacquiao, better half of WBO world welterweight champion Manny Pacquiao, has been in the country?s summer capital since Tuesday to watch her husband prepare for his coming fight with American Shane Mosley.

?Well, I decided to visit his training para mabigyan siya ng konting inspirasyon and moral support,? Jinkee said when asked.

?Lagi ko naming ginagawa ito, and dumalaw kung saan man siya nagte-train precisely to let him feel na concern ako sa kanya,? she said. ?Alam mo naman medyo delikado ang laban nya at mas kailangan niya ang suporta ng pamilya.?

Jinkee said she will be here till Friday, the day when Team Pacquiao is set to leave for Manila for departure the following day to the United States where the eight-division champ will resume his preparations.

?Yeah, I?ll be here till Friday. Kasama na nila ako pagbaba,? Jinkee, who arrived here with no. 1 ?alalay? Jessie Arila and friend Joan Gomez, said. Since her arrival, Jinkee has been overshadowing her husband as far as fans? attention was concerned.

During Tuesday?s sparring when shooting footages and pictures were not allowed, she had to ask trainer Freddie Roach to permit her to have some shots of Manny while shadow-boxing, drawing laughter from the big crowd.

?Yes, you can. You?re our boss,? Roach said in jest.

?Binabantayan? Hindi ah. Ang laki-laki na nyan, babantayan ko pa,? she retorted to insinuation that he is keeping watch with her husband.?Wala naman akong dapat bantayan sa kanya. Good boy na sya,?

?Talagang suporta lamang. Hindi ko naman madala ang mga anak naming because of their schooling, kaya kahit na ako lang maipadama ko ang concern sa kanya.?
