Viva Prime, the cable station which is also carried by Destiny Cable will replay the one-hour pre-fight special on the Manny Pacquiao-David Diaz ?Lethal Combination? showdown at 10:00 p.m. tonight (Saturday).
The special features both Pacquiao and Diaz at the promotional tour stop and pep rally in Chicago, the official press conference announcing the fight and other interesting sidelights.
Fight fans will also see highlights of Diaz?s battles against Erik ?El Terrible? Morales and Ramon Montano courtesy of Solar Sports and the press conference at the signing of the Memorandum of Agreement between Solar Sports and GMA 7 which will telecast the fight..
There will also be highlights of Pacquiao?s final day of training at the Gerry Penalosa gym in Mandaluyong, an interview with Penalosa on the fight and a conversation with Pacquiao?s wife, the charming Jinkee Pacquiao.
Remarks by trainers Freddie Roach and Jim Strickland as well as Top Rank promoter Bob Arum and full coverage of the postage stamp issued in honor of Pacquiao?s achievements by Philpost will be part of the special.
It also features Pacquiao in a fun-filled chess match against former business manager Rod Nazario and interviews with Nika Judalena who will sing the Philippine National Anthem at the fight and Fil-Mexican Jasmine Villegas who sang the Star Spangled Banner in the Pacquiao-Juan Manuel Marquez title fight last March 15 and will do so again in the showdown against Diaz.
