Boxing superstar Manny Pacquiao made an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live Thursday evening and talked shop with the affable host. Pac Man was promoting his CD “Sometimes when we touch” featuring Dan Hill, as well as his upcoming May 7th fight with Shane Mosley. Here’s a video of Manny Pacquiao on Jimmy Kimmel Live in case you missed it:
Pacquiao explained that his visit was mostly because he wanted to continue a good superstition. Part of his pre-fight routine is appearing on Kimmel’s show which he did last year while debuting his singing skills. Pacquiao actually sang Sometimes When we Touch last year and that led to his pairing with Hill for the CD.
The best part of the interview was when Kimmel busted Manny’s chops about his cologne. Pacquiao had a cologne called “MP7” which represented the amount of weight classes where Manny held a title. Kimmel asked Pac Man what he’d do if he won a title in another weight class, and Manny said they’d come out with MP8. Sure enough, Manny won another title and they released an MP8 cologne.
The interview was light-hearted and enjoyable, and it was another opportunity for Manny to promote his album. Now about his singing skills … I’ll let you judge that for yourself.
