An interesting twist in the May 7th Manny Pacquiao-Shane Mosley welterweight title fight is the fact that the event is being presented by Showtime Pay per view in association with it’s partner CBS as opposed to HBO, the network responsible for airing so many of the Filipino star’s triumphs in the ring. And instead of the standard 24/7 series that we have become accustomed to viewing, Showtime/CBS will instead be offering viewers a four-part installment of the Fight Camp 360 series, excellent in its own right, on the two fighters.
At the moment camera crews are currently in Baguio City in the Philippines, where Pacquiao is training, as well as in Big Bear, California with the former five-time champion Mosley. From capturing the two fighters in camp with their respective trainers, Freddie Roach and Naazim Richardson, to getting them on film outside of the ring, viewers can expect an unfiltered look at Pacquiao and Mosley when Fight Camp 360 premiers on Saturday, April 2nd.

The crews have actually been on the scene with the two fighters for over a month now, dating back to the coast-to-coast promotional tour that covered such locales as Los Angeles and Washington, D.C., as well as having an inside look into the Las Vegas offices of Top Rank. Fans can also expect an exclusive showing of Pacquiao’s private meeting with President Barack Obama sometime in the series.
