In preparation for the November 14 bout with WBO welterweight champion Miguel Cotto, Manny Pacquiao has requested some sparring help from the UK. Edinburgh southpaw Gary McMillan received a training camp invite to become a sparring partner for Pacquiao. He was used in Pacquiao’s training camp for the David Diaz fight.
McMillan plans to travel out to the Wildcard gym in Los Angeles. The fighter’s coach Terry McCormack has a strong relationship with Roach.
“This invitation doesn’t surprise,” McCormack told the Scotsman. “Freddie rates Gary very highly. Besides, Manny wants McMillan because his next opponent, Miguel Cotto, is famous for being a switch hitter who moves from orthodox to southpaw.”
