The streets of the Philippines could resemble a ghost town for a few hours on Sunday morning, Satuday evening here in the US May 2. as everyone from taxi drivers to petty thieves makes time to watch Manny Pacquiao's fight against Ricky Hatton.
Pacquiao, known as the "nation's fist," is idolised in the Southeast Asian nation and his every appearance in the ring has a majority of the 90 million people glued to their television and radio sets, causing a surge in demand for electricity. "I'm sure all Filipinos will also stay home so it will just be a waste of time driving around. If Manny wins, then I'll have a busy afternoon, and expects people to be partying in the streets should their man triumph.
Restaurants with cable television will open early as will shopping malls with cinemas, where people can watch the fight live via satellite.
According to news The SM group, the country's largest cinema operator, said the tickets, priced at 551 pesos each, were selling fast.
Pacquiao, nicknamed "Pac-man," is clearly popular with the nation's criminals as well.
Historical and statistical data to show that there's always zero crime during Pacquiao's actual match," said Nicanor Bartolome, national police spokesman.
In the southern Mindanao island, government soldiers will set up a giant screen in a former camp of the militant rebel group Abu Sayyaf to watch the match, according to a local radio report. Pacquiao, widely regarded as the best pound-for-pound fighter in the world, has also distracted politicians.
Congress adjourned its session early this week so about 50 lawmakers, including the speaker of the House of Representatives, could fly to Las Vegas for the fight.
I am praying for Manny's victory because that will bring honour and pride to all Filipinos anywhere in the world, "He's my hero because he always makes us proud." GO PAQUIAO, GO, GO! WE’RE PROUD FOR YOU AND WE’RE PROUD TO BE PINOY!!!!
