According to a report out by The Philippine Star, on Monday in Los Angeles, Manny Pacquiao turned down a Global TV commercial featuring Basketball star, Kobe Bryant. Turning down the shoot with NBA's Kobe Bryant sets the fact that Pacquiao is deep in training for Erik Morales, and not even the best distractions at this time are standing in his way.
The Philippine Star further reported that a Pacquiao Team insider said Nike is filming an advertisement on its high-profile stars. The list includies Bryant, LeBron James, Maria Sharapova, Rafael Nadal, Tiger Woods and South Korean soccer
star Park Ji Sung of Manchester United, and of course Manny Pacquiao. A lunch date that had been set up to introduce the Los Angeles Lakers star to Pacquiao was cancelled.
"Manny knows what’s at stake in the fight so he’s making sure his focus is 100 percent in the gym," said the insider. "He’s now in deep training for Morales and that’s why he had to beg off from the shoot."
