Pacquiao Returns To Kapamilya Network

As far as I remember, Pambansang Kamao, Manny “Pacman” Pacquiao used to be a kapamilya before. If my memory serves me right, his previous 2-3 boxing match were aired in GMA 7, prior to that was all aired to ABC-CBN network. Pacquiao even had shows in Kapuso Network.

I watched SNN (Showbiz News Ngayon) last night and Kris Aquino said that she talked with Jinky Pacquiao over the phone and told her that Manny had long been wanting to return to ABS-CBN. He reportedly signed a letter of intent with ABS-CBN which will cover the Hatton on May 2, 2009 match and possibly three or more fights thereafter.

UPDATE: Solar Sports Entertainment has claimed it will seek legal remedies in case of breach of contract by Pacquiao. While Pacquiao is not affected by the possibility of him being sued after Solar Sports reportedy failed to “fulfill its obligation to pay stipulated fees for the subject rights.”

Manny Pacquiao Aims For Lightweight Title

Watch out for the coming boxing match of boxing superstar Manny “Pacman” Pacquiao versus 31 year old Mexican-American David Diaz, the present WBC (World Boxing Council) lightweight champion on June 28 at Mandalay Bay Resort, Las Vegas, Nevada.

August last year, David Diaz won the boxing match against Eric Morales in defense of his title. This time, Manny Pacquiao is aiming for the WBC Lightweight title which will make him the “first Asian boxer to win four world titles in three different weight divisions”, and he will also be the First Filipino World Lightweight titlist.

Manny Pacquiao’s titles:
1st – WBC (World Boxing Council) Flyweight from Fahsan 3K Battery
2nd – IBF (International Boxing Federation) Super Bantamweight from Lehlohonolo Ledwaba
3rd – WBC (World Boxing Council) and The Ring World Super Featherweight title from Juan Manuel Marquez
4th – Pacquiao’s target: WBC Lightweight title

Taking consideration the data I gather, I guess this would be the greatest boxing match or should I say “the finale” of Pacquiao’s boxing career. Let’s just hope for the best. Go, Manny!
