ASIDE from major cinemas, some of the country’s major cities will get the chance to watch the November 19 Manny Pacquiao-Erik Morales bout live.
Promoter Rex “Wakee” Salud announced Thursday that big venues such as the Cebu Coliseum and Mandaue City Sports Complex will show the bouts for a minimal fee to fans, who will find cinema ticket prices too steep.
Bacolod City will also air the fight, as well as choice venues in Ozamiz City and Tagbilaran City.
Salud stressed that other cities are still in the process of applying for the right to beam the fight live in big venues.
Local cinemas and bars are charging as high as P600 for a chance to watch the live telecast plus lunch, while moviehouses charge P500 and P400 for seats.
The venues in major cities will charge only P100 and P200. The bout is the third meeting between the Filipino and the Mexican. Dubbed as the “Grand Finale,” it will be held at the Thomas and Mack Center in Las Vegas.
