After needing just 90 seconds to score his 14th knockout win, the murderous-punching middleweight Weljon Mindoro will ease back into training mode in Los Angeles and join a bevy of top Filipino fighters trying to imbibe the championship aura of Manny Pacquiao.

“He’s very exciting to watch,” the well-connected American boxing manSean Gibbons said on Tuesday.

Mindoro, a muscular southpaw, demolished Omar Munguia of Mexico over the weekend in San Antonio, Texas, to remain unbeaten in 15 bouts, a 2023 draw being a minor stain on his otherwise perfect record.

“He will be coming over to LA and hang out and work out with the rest of the guys and train with Manny Pacquiao,” he added.

With Mindoro’s impending arrival, the cast of runners joining Pacquiao in his morning workouts will increase with Eumir Marcial, Jerwin Ancajas and Mark Magsayo already in the circle.

Marcial, Ancajas and Magsayo are seeing action on the night Pacquiao attempts to turn back the hands of time when he challenges Mario Barrios for the World Boxing Council welterweight title on 19 July at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas.

Mindoro’s beatdown of Munguia was seen no less by Pacquiao while he was in New York attending the Hall of Fame induction.

It was Sean’s son Brendan who showed the streamed Pacquiao the fight on his mobile phone, leaving the eight-division legend sporting a big smile.

“Congratulations,” he said, his eyes lighting up after watching Mindoro deck the erstwhile unbeaten Munguia with a crackling right uppercut.

The 25-year-old Mindoro, originally from Zamboanga del Sur, fights out of the Quibors Boxing Stable of Bacoor, Cavite, and has been training in Las Vegas since last year.
