Manny Pacquiao’s trainer Freddie Roach has offered $1,000 to any sparring partner that can knock the Filipino down, local media reported. 
Pacquiao, widely regarded the world’s best pound-for-pound fighter, started training on Tuesday at Hollywood’s Wild Card boxing club in Los Angeles ahead of his Nov. 14 challenge for Miguel Cotto’s WBO welterweight title in Las Vegas. “[The money’s] still with me and I am telling the new sparring partners that they will be rewarded with $1,000 if they score a knockdown over Manny in sparring,” Roach told the Manila Bulletin newspaper’s Web site (www.mb.com.ph).
