BREAKING NEWS: PACQUIAO MEETS WITH ARUM!
By Dong Secuya PhilBoxing.com Fri, 04 Dec 2009

Words coming from Manila indicate that pound-for-pound king Manny Pacquiao has finally met with his promoter Bob Arum at the New World Renaissance Hotel in Makati more than an hour ago (13:00 Manila time).
While the world awaited with bated breath, Arum was left wondering the whole day yesterday if he will be able to meet his prized ward to discuss the biggest fight in boxing, Pacquiao vs Mayweather, when Pacquiao, after arriving in Manila from General Santos yesterday afternoon, snubbed his promoter and went directly to a location to shoot the remaining scenes of his upcoming movie 'Wapakman'.
Pacquiao emerged from the hotel room composed and relaxed after the meeting with Arum but would not say what was agreed, if any, according to the source.
Arum has scheduled a press conference with ABS-CBN this afternoon to announce the partnership between Arum's company, Top Rank, and Philippine network giant ABS-CBN. It is expected that Arum will also announce what had transpired with his meeting with the Filipino boxing hero.
