PACQUIAO FAILS TO LEAVE
By Ronnie Nathanielsz PhilBoxing.com Wed, 21 Nov 2007
Filipino ring idol Manny Pacquiao failed to take his scheduled Northwest flight for the US this morning for a scheduled thanksgiving dinner with Top Rank promoter Bob Arum in Las Vegas.
The latest information is that his departure was delayed because the shooting of his movie in Nueva Ecija wasnt finished despite working until 4:00 a.m.
Close friend and confidant Rex "Wakee" Salud said that Pacquiao plans to leave tomorrow night aboard a Philippine Airlines flight but that he was trying to convince him to leave tonight.
Any further delay could upset the Nike commercial shoot planned at Freddie Roach's Wild Card Gym and the thanksgiving dinner with Arum at which they are to decide on his March 15 opponent with Arum's own fighter reportedly having the edge according to Los Angeles based Dr. Ed De La Vega.
