Last night, boxing champ Manny Pacquiao appeared on late-night talk show “Jimmy Kimmel Live,” revealing that - despite his nickname - he does not play the video game “Pac-Man.”
“Do you know what Pac-Man is? ” asked host Jimmy Kimmel. “My dog,” replied a laughing Pacquiao.
Pacquiao demonstrated the wooden training stick he uses for mind conditioning in preparation for taking hits in the ring by taking several light swats at Kimmel, before serenading the live studio audience with a rendition of the love song, “Sometimes When We Touch.”
Regarding the upcoming fight against Miguel Cotto on November 14, Pacquiao admitted that this was a very important bout for him, and he isn’t thinking about what will come after this match just yet.
