US promoter Murad Muhammad arrives today to join the HBO crew shooting Manny Pacquiao?s footages which will be shown during the HBO telecast of the Filipino champion?s keenly-awaited fight against Juan Manuel Marquez on May 8.
Muhammad is ecstatic about the HBO filming, which he hopes to generate interest among the US boxing fans unlike when Pacquiao visited New York last month where very few barely noticed his presence as he walked up and down a Times Square sidewalk.
This time, Muhammad wants to show the fans in the US how popular Pacquiao is in his country and the bearded promoter also wants to prove that in two fights, they will recognize Pacquiao in the US as much as they do in the Philippines.
