Boxing Update: Manny Pacquiao Releases First US Single Today

As eight-division world boxing champion Manny Pacquiao prepares for his May 7 WBO welterweight title defense against Shane Mosley at the soldout MGM Grand in Las Vegas. (live on Pay-Per-View), he’s also looking forward to a career move of a different kind: the release of his CD single/DVD Sometimes When We Touch, makes its public debut today, Thursday, April 28, available at iTunes and Amazon.com.

Last October, weeks before his astonishing 12-round unanimous decision victory over Antonio Margarito, Pacquiao interspersed his training in the ring with sessions in the studio to record the unforgettable iconic ballad Sometimes When We Touch with the same production team that brought the song to the top of the charts in 1977.

With songwriter and original singer Dan Hill in his corner, and producers Matthew McCauley and Fred Mollin, Pacquiao delivers a passionate performance that shows the warmth and courage in the boxer’s heart.

Now one of the most-recognized names on the planet, Manny Pacquiao has been driven to achieve more than most people can even daydream about. He’s a devoted husband and father of four, an elected congressman in his native Philippines, an actor, a singer, and of course, one of the greatest boxers of all time.

Let Manny Pacquiao continue to amaze you with his knockout performance on this CD/DVD.
