Update: The Boston Celtics Celebrating with Manny Pacquiao Video

Here's an article from abs-cbn:

The Celtics are in town to watch Manny Pacquiao fight David Diaz at Mandanay Bay Saturday evening.

If plans push through, the newly crowned NBA champions from Boston, led by the Big Three (Kevin Garnett, Paul Pierce and Ray Allen) will be at ringside to root for the Filipino challenger.

According to Pacquiao’s pointman in Los Angeles, Winchell Campos, 16 tickets have already been reserved for members of the Boston Celtics, most of whom are already in town as of Friday.

"They all wanted to see Pacquiao fight, knowing that Pacquiao is a big fan of the team," said Campos who said he personally talked to Garnett over the phone on the eve of the fight.

Pacquiao knew of the Celtics’ plan to come and see him fight, and even offered them tickets. But later on Mandalay Bay said it would provide the ringside tickets for the reigning world champions.

Campos said they are working it out with Mandalay Bay officials how the Celtics, or at least a few of them, could get inside Pacquiao’s dressing room before or after the scheduled 12-rounder.

Pacquiao is a big Celtics fan, and in the recent finals against the Los Angeles Lakers he kept on rooting for the men in green.

When he checked at Mandalay Bay last Monday, he talked about the recent NBA Finals, how he knew even before the start that the Lakers would find no answer to the Celtics’ "deeper bench."

Pacquiao proudly wore a Celtics cap that night, the cap being presented to him by a friend during his last day of training at the Wild Card Gym in LA.

On that day, as he saw his trainer Freddie Roach trying on the cap, Pacquiao yelled, "Hey, coach that’s mine!"

Juan Manuel Marquez and Manny Pacquiao both has made weight in, one day before fans starting seeing Manny Pacquaio vs Marquez 2 result for the WBC super featherweight title at Mandalay Bay Las Vegas.

Marquez weighed in right at the 130-pound (59-kilogram), while Pacquiao weighed in at 129 pounds (58.5 kilograms) in front of adoring and cheering clearly Mexican crowd at Mandalay Bay Events Center. The crowd as expected chanted against Pacquiao in Spanish.

The fighters are both fit and ready to fight, their body ripped from months of workout. When they shook hands, you can see that the body fat are minimized. With this level of fitness the expected Manny Pacquaio vs Marquez 2 result would be anything but exciting.

Pacquiaos next fight is expected to be at Mandalay Bay in late June against WBC lightweight champion David Diaz. After that, Pacquiao hopes for a unification fight in the autumn with Nate Campbell, who won the other three major 135-pound belts last week by beating Juan Diaz. Earlier, Juan Diaz challenges Manny Pacquiao.

After suffering a lost at Pacquiao Morales 1, Pacquaio went on to win a fight against Hector Velasquez. A few months after the Velasquez fight, he once again faced Erik Morales.

After five rounds of action, Erik Morales was winning his rematch with Manny Pacquiao and appeared as if he might be on his way to a second win over the Filipino superstar. However, the tide turned dramatically in the sixth round and after that it was all Pac Man.

By the tenth round, Morales appeared completely out of gas and was knocked down twice. Following the second knock down, refereee Kenny Bayless waved off the fight without a count for the first KO loss of Morales' illustrious career. Morales absorbed significant punishment during the fight and his nose appeared broken.

Pacquaio Morales II was set on January 21, 2006 at Thomas & Mack Center, Las Vegas, Nevada, United States. The HBO Pay per view commentators are Emmanuel Steward, Larry Merchant, & Jim Lampley. Pacquaio Morales I was fought for the WBC International super featherweight title and elimination fight for the WBC Super Featherweight Title.
