Tuesday, February 26, 2008 Pacman to conduct open media workout
FILIPINO boxing sensation Manny Pacquiao will hold an open media workout Wednesday at the Titaum Training Center in San Francisco, California.
Pacquiao, considered boxing's No. 1 pound for pound most exciting fighter, will be joined by promoter Bob Arum of Top Rank and famed trainer Freddie Roach in the public workout which starts at 12:30 p.m.
Pacquiao, the punching machine from General Santos City who has an outstanding record of 45-3-2 with 34 KOs, will challenge World Boxing Council (WBC) super featherweight champion Juan Manuel Marquez of Mexico on March 15 at the Mandalay Bay Resort & Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada.
The 12-round world title fight is the second one between the two boxers. Back in 2004, Pacquiao and Marquez fought to a classic draw in a featherweight clash.
The March 15 rematch is promoted by Golden Boy Promotions and Top Rank, in association with Romanza Boxing Productions and MP Promotions.
