THE boxing champ, Manny “Pacman” Pacquiao graced the Jimmy Kimmel show while staying in the United States for his Miguel Cotto fight.

During the interview with Jimmy Kimmel, Manny was asked if he ever tried the game pacman.

“I was able to play it when I was young,” Manny said, adding that he named his dog “Pacman.”

When asked about the people closely working with him, Manny said he has about 30 people in his entourage with different assignments.

In one part of the interview Jimmy Kimmel showed a wooden stick and asked Manny if it was true that he was hit by it in the abdomenal area during trainings.

Manny said the stick will work as "mind conditioning" for him to endure the pain during the fight.

Pacman also sampled Jimmy Kimmel and the audience with his vocal prowess when he sung "Sometimes When We Touch."

He said this fight is very important for him because if he wins, it will be a history in the boxing world.

The next day, Manny's team had a media workout at the Wild Card Gym in Los Angeles, California.

Manny assured all his fans of a good fight with the Puerto Rican Miguel Cotto on November 14 at the MGM Grand in Las VegaS, Nevada.
