Walters was supposed to fight March 21st (Crawford being in the main event) but he got the flu so the fight was scrapped

Manny Pacquiao plagued with leg cramps

It's not going away. Manny Pacquiao and his trainer, Freddie Roach, can't choose to ignore it. So, they're confronting it -- the medical issue currently plaguing Pacquiao.

The culprit? Leg cramps.

According to Roach, who spoke with Yahoo Sports, Pacquiao is currently dealing with the cramps as he trains for Floyd Mayweather. It's an issue that has popped up in some of his previous fights. And now, it could hurt his chance to bring down Mayweather on May 2, especially considering Pacquiao relies on his speed inside the ring.

So, Roach and Pacquiao are exploring all possible avenues, including using an anti-inflammatory cream, which the USADA cleared for usage, on Pacquiao's calves. The cream cost $1,800.

"I wasn't too happy about that," Roach told Yahoo Sports, regarding the steep price for the bottle of cream.

And that's not all the Pacquiao camp is doing to stymie the cramps. According to Roach, they've got doctors on the case. Pacquiao is also receiving massages. In other words, they're exhausting every option.

"There's no magic cure for it," Roach said. "We're doing what we can do."

Part of his plan to keep Pacquiao healthy involves changing Pacquiao's workout routine, in order to avoid shin splints. So, the hills are out and sprints are in. As previously reported, Pacquiao will no longer run hills and will, instead, workout at UCLA's track.

"When he was young, it was OK, but he's getting a little older and the wear and tear of going up that hill, which is all concrete, is really not good for his legs," Roach said. Still, Roach maintains that Pacquiao "is on fire," despite the medical issues.

But whether or not the cramps affect his ability to be a mobile, dizzying fighter -- a fighter good enough to hand Mayweather his first ever loss -- on May 2 remains to be seen.

Holyfield: Mayweather Will Lose To Manny Pacquiao

Former heavyweight great Evander Holyfield is going for the underdog. Holyfield is backing Manny Pacquiao to hand Floyd Mayweather Jr. the first defeat of his pro career on May 2nd at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. Mayweather, 38-years-old, is riding a 47-0 undefeated streak. The two welterweight champions will collide for the WBO/WBC/WBA titles on pay-per-view.

Holyfield says everyone will eventually suffer a defeat at some point. He says the fight will be close, with Pacquiao winning a twelve round decision.

"Mayweather won't win, because from what I've seen, boxing doesn't want nobody to get out [of the sport] undefeated," Holyfield told Sports on Earth. "They want to keep the money in the sport by doing things to make it happen this way: Somebody beats the man, and then somebody beats the man who beat the man, and then somebody beats the man who beat the man who beat the man who beat the man."

"So I'll tell you what's going to happen, because it's going to be a close fight. Yeah, it'll be close, and Pacquiao is going to get the decision. Then it's going to be a matter of whether Mayweather is going to fight again, whether he feels like he has made enough money to say, 'I ain't got to fight.'"

Holyfield does expect Mayweather, if he loses, to fight again - because there will be too much money in a Pacquiao rematch and other fight options as well.

"It's a good chance Mayweather is not going to hang it up, so there's going to be another $100 million [fight between Mayweather and Pacquiao] and all like that. [Boxing executives] set it up that way. It's because they will not let you out of boxing undefeated, not unless you trick them."
