| Former 5-time world heavyweight champion Evander Holyfield |
Former 5-time world heavyweight champion Evander Holyfield took his time out to visit Manny Pacquiao over the weekend at his Palazzo residence in Los Angeles, California.
Holyfield has earlier expressed his admiration to Pacquiao for his kindness and humility.
“He’s a great fighter. I enjoy the spirit in him, because regardless of how bad he beats somebody, he never brags about it” Holyfield said. “He tells people, I did what I’m supposed to do.”
“Either way it (the fight) comes out, he’s always gonna be the winner, because whatever happens, he’s humble, he goes out and does the very best that he could do, and that’s it, “he added.
Pacquiao said he always watch on DVD the fights of Holyfield especially when he was just starting in his boxing career.
On the upcoming fight between Manny Pacquiao and Juan Manuel Marquez, Holyfield said the key is for the fighter to make adjustments.
“It was always easy for me to fight a guy the second time than the first time, because the first time, I don’t know what he’s gonna do,” Holyfield said. “So I just got to make adjustments. Life is about adjustments.”
Last week, NBA star Kobe Bryant also visited Pacquiao at the Wild Card Gym in Hollywood where he is on his last phase of his training for the November trilogy fight with Marquez.
Other celebrities who have visited Pacquiao while on training at Freddie Roach’s Wild Card Gym in LosAngeles include, Sylvester Stallone, Brad Pitt, Robert Duvall and Mark Wahlberg, among others.
Pacquiao and his entourage have started moving to Las Vegas for the final phase of his training and public appearances at the MGM Grand lobby. They are expected to arrive in Las Vegas Tuesday noon.
