Manny Pacquiao singing in his first "Jummy Kimmel Live!" appearance in 2009
The said guesting marks boxing champ Cong. Manny Pacquiao and host Jimmy Kimmel's 2nd anniversary of knowing each other which started when Pacman first appeared on the latter's show in 2009 where he belted out Dan Hill's "Sometimes When We Touch." The eight-division world champion made three more appearances on the show after that, making Thursday's his fifth.
Just last October 28th, Pacquiao, together with his promoter and Top Rank CEO Bob Arum, had also made a talkshow appearance on CNN, on ""Piers Morgan Tonight."
Both appearances are part of Time Warner-HBO's efforts to aggressively promote the upcoming fight of Pacquiao against Juan Manuel Marquez.
Manny Pacquiao (53-3-2, 38 KOs), who is now on his last few days of intense training, is scheduled to fight Mexican legend Juan Manuel Marquez (52-5-1, 38 KOs) for the third time on Saturday, November 12, 2011 (Sunday, November 13, 2011 in the Philippines) at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada.
