MANILA, Philippines – Filipino boxing champion Emmanuel “Manny” Pacquiao is excited for his 30th birthday celebration Wednesday evening, a radio report said.
A report over dzBB said Pacquiao started the day by attending a Mass at the Our Lady of Good Voyage in his hometown, General Santos City. The report said Pacquiao was also greeted by well-wishers in his mansion.
The pound-for-pound king’s Las Vegas-themed birthday bash will be attended by bigwigs in politics and boxing, including President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo and Top Rank Promotions chief executive officer Bob Arum.
Top Rank is Pacquiao’s promoter.
Pacquiao’s coach Freddie Roach and his defeated opponents Marco Antonio Barrera and David Diaz were also reportedly attending the celebration.
Pacquiao’s “strictly invitational” birthday party will be held at the convention center of KCC Mall – the biggest mall in General Santos City.
Some 1,500 top personalities from show business, politics and the boxing world have been invited to the party, organizers earlier said.
