HOLLYWOOD – Nine days before the fight, Manny Pacquiao performed again on Jimmy Kimmel Live!
For the second time since November, he graced the longest-running late-night talk show on ABC, talked about his March 13 fight with Joshua Clottey, and brought the house down by singing George Benson’s “Nothing’s Gonna Change My Love For You.”
The Filipino crowd that packed the El Capitan Theater in Hollywood cheered as Pacquiao took the floor and gave it all.
Last November, in the days leading to his fight with Miguel Cotto, the Filipino boxing icon was in the same show and sang his heart out, doing Dan Hill’s “Sometimes When We Touch.”
Pacquiao held a media workout at the Wild Card Gym, just two blocks away from the famous Hollywood Boulevard, in mid-afternoon, and entertained the horde of writers and photographers.
From inside his dressing room on to the top of the ring, he granted interviews and fielded questions about his coming fight, questions that have been asked probably of him a hundred times.
Then after the two-hour session, Pacquiao bent his way inside a waiting limousine that brought him to the nearby theater. He was back in his $2 million home at Larchmont Park soon after.
Earlier at the gym, Pacquiao said he’s all set to fight.
“I’m ready – a hundred percent,” he told the members of the press which lined all sides of the ring for a chance to interview the boxer just days before he defends his WBO welterweight crown.
