PACQUIAO VS. KIMMEL IX

MANNY ?PACMAN? PACQUIAO RETURNS TO ?JIMMY KIMMEL LIVE!?
This Wednesday! April 22, on ABC 11:35 P.M. ET/ 10:35 P.M. CT

HOLLYWOOD, CALIF. (April 17, 2015) ? Fighter of the Decade, eight-division world champion and boxing superhero CONGRESSMAN MANNY ?Pacman? PACQUIAO will make yet another guest shot on Jimmy Kimmel Live! This Wednesday! April 22, on ABC, beginning at 11:35 P.M. ET / 10:35 P.M. CT. This will mark the ninth time Pacquiao has appeared on Kimmel?s popular late-night talk show -- more than any other active fighter -- in their series of entertaining appearances together dating back to November 3, 2009 (the week before Pacquiao vs. Miguel Cotto). It was on that night that Pacquiao unveiled his singing chops, belting out a rendition of the Dan Hill-penned hit ballad "Sometimes When We Touch.? Manny and Hill collaborated on a remake which also became a hit. Subsequent appearances featured Pacquiao singing duets with Kimmel and Will Ferrell, and an uproarious send-up of HBO Sports? ?24/7? reality franchise, starring Pacquiao and Kimmel sidekick Guillermo. (This link will take you to Manny?s surprise appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live! following the March 11 Los Angeles press conference that announced the ?Fight of the Century? between Manny and Floyd Mayweather Jr. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=79ft5j-zZzw&feature=youtu.be.)

That 2009 appearance also marked Manny?s U.S. network TV debut, which has since led to a multitude of network television, radio and magazine features for the reigning World Boxing Organization (WBO) welterweight world champion, including, CBS? 60 Minutes, ABC?s Good Morning America, CNN?s Piers Morgan Tonight, ABC?s Nightline, FOX News Channel?s On The Record With Greta Van Susteren, CNN?s America Morning, NPR?s Morning Edition and Weekend Edition, Rollingstone, New York Magazine, The New Yorker, Playboy, Sports Illustrated, ESPN The Magazine and cover stories in TIME and Newsweek.

Pacquiao (57-5-2, 38 KOs), the lone congressional representative of the Sarangani province in the Philippines, is in deep training for the eagerly-anticipated May 2 welterweight world championship unification battle against undefeated FLOYD ?Money? MAYWEATHER JR. (47-0, 26 KOs), at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas.

Promoted by Mayweather Promotions and Top Rank Inc., the Mayweather-Pacquiao live pay-per-view telecast will be co-produced and co-distributed by HBO Pay-Per-View? and SHOWTIME PPV? beginning at 9:00 p.m. ET/6:00 p.m. PT.
