“Many people think Manny Pacquiao is a Mexican killer, I dont think so. And on March 15 I will demonstrate whos better.”
Thats what Juan Manuel Marquez says in the video above. In English. (Even though someone translates the questions for him into Spanish.) In contrast, Manny Pacquiao goes beyond talking or singing (!)–in Tagalog and English–and is now writing for a tabloid. The name of his twice-a-week column is Kumbinasyon, which actually reads more like it was dictated to someone =)
Marquez was, of course, referring to his fight with Pacquiao on Sunday, 16 March 2008, which will be shown in Manila starting at 9 am on GMA. (Note: Due to time zone differences, the fight actually takes place in Las Vegas, Nevada, on Saturday, 15 March 2008, 6 pm.)
Anyway, the usual go-to sites are HBO, if youre in North America; and GMAs Unfinished Business, if youre in the Philippines. But you should check out Pacquiao Video, where you can view the full 30-minute video of HBOs “Countdown to Marquez Pacquiao II,” see the list of venues where the fight will be shown on a big screen for a fee or free (all over the Philippines!), and read tips on how you can watch the fight online for free!
If none of these work for you, youll just have to wait for Pinoy Rickey to upload clips in his usual uploaded-within-minutes style. And if you really cant watch the fight on TV or online, news updates will be available on Inquirer.nets “The Pacquiao Files,” Google News, Yahoo! News, and Topix.net. Or you can check out what bloggers are saying on Technorati and Google Blog Search.
Finally, Pacland has the latest news about Pacquiao from different sources, plus information about all previous fights and a forum for his fans.
