When fight figures cross into nine-digit guarantees, the conversation usually turns cynica…

WBO Oriental super flyweight champion Warlito ?Cowboy? Parrenas is using an unusual attire in his preparation for his interim title fight against David Carmona on June 20 in Mexico.

Parrenas is training with a mask which is geared to help him handle the high altitude of Mexico where the fight will take place.

He said ?it is difficult to train with a mask and he feels a drowning sensation and its very hard to breathe.?

However, Parrenas said he ?feels like a super hero? in his attire and hopes it can truly help him when he steps into the ring against Carmona.

Parrenas is being trained by Sammy Bernabe and British trainer Warren Evison who told the New Standard/boxingmirror.com that Parrenas works on the track every morning and also in the gym where he has been sparring with top Japanese fighters.

Evison said Parrenas was doing well in sparring and is ?doing well.?

The British trainer said they had watched fight tapes of Carmona and noticed that while the Mexican was fast, he didn?t have much power.

The winner of the Interim title fight will have to face Japanese world champion Naoya Inoue within 90n days.
