VP De Castro, other VIPs to watch Pacquiao bout in Vegas - report
MANILA, Philippines - Vice President Manuel "Noli" de Catro Jr. will top a list of Philippine figures who will watch the much anticipated square off between Filipino boxing champ Emmanuel "Manny" Pacquiao and World Boxing Council super featherweight champion Juan Manuel Marquez Sunday. Bombo Radyo reported early Saturday that De Castro will be watching the bout from the ringside of the Mandalay Bay Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada, where the bout will take place. The Office of the Vice President said De Castro left Friday for the US for official engagements in Canada at North American cities, but will watch the bout in Las Vegas. The report said new House Speaker Prospero Nograles Jr and Environment Secretary Jose Atienza Jr, a close friend of Pacquiao, also secured ringside tickets that could fetch a price of $600 or about P25,000. Also in Las Vegas are administration Sen. Ramon Revilla Jr and former Sen. Robert Jaworski Sr, and superstar Nora Aunor, the report said. Likewise reported seen in Las Vegas were defeated administration senatorial bets Luis Singson and Prospero Pichay Jr. - GMANews.TV
