Pacquiao vs Cotto Fight In A Few Hours


Later today, it would not come as a surprise if roads will be clear around town. No traffic since almost every Filipino will be inside their houses or stuck in some place to watch and support our own boxing champion, Manny Pacquiao, in his match against the Puerto Rican champion Miguel Cotto.

The fight which is called:  Firepower: Pacquiao vs. Cotto will be shown here in the Philippines at around 9 in the morning.  But in this time and age, fans need not settle on local TV stations to witness this fight (it means, there's no need to be tortured seeing TVC's over and over again every 5 minutes).  Different establishments provide pay per view option as seen in this list.  If you don't have the budget for this, another list of venues is available wherein viewers can watch for free.  If in case you still prefer to watch this highly anticipated WBO Welterweight championship, you can catch it on GMA-7 at around 11a.m. (fyi: this is a delayed telecast). In which case, no matter where you catch this match, I'm sure you'll just be one with everyone rooting for Pacman.

I am no boxing expert. I would not even pass for a boxing fan as well.  All I know is that here's a Filipino bringing pride to our country who deserves our prayers so that he hopefully wins this fight.
