Manny Pacquiao has completed his first five weeks of training in the Philippines without mishap as he continues the build-up to his fight with Miguel Cotto on November 14 - live on Sky Sports.

The Filipino legend was forced to move camps from the cool mountain resort of Baguio following violent storms that killed more than 1,000 people.

However, trainer Freddie Roach says the 30-year-old's training was not disrupted and is in great shape for the final two weeks of sparring in Los Angeles.

"He is right where I want him to be, perfect," said Roach.

"We didn't let it affect our training. We worked right through it and never missed a day," Roach said of the storms.

"So it was a great training camp in Baguio."

Pacquiao is favoured by the bookmakers ahead of the Las Vegas showdown that will take place at a catchweight of 145lbs.
