Event is sold out already! There were only 200 spots.


Whenever he's up here, he does a concert at Roberto's in Daly City...haha...right next to Pacific Super...its closed now, but I got to meet him there twice. As a singer though, not really a fan of his singing.

Theres only one way to get into Hiddenbrooke so if I can get off work early, imma park by the stop sign and wait for him to enter the neighborhoods. If theres a decent crowd by the stop sign, knowing Manny, He'll most like stop, open his window and sign some autographs. Im trying to get a boxing glove signed by him.

Manny better than Ali? Did I just read that?
at this point one can make the claim that what pacquiao has done is more impressive than Ali, pound for pound. Ali is the greatest heavyweight of all time, but certainly not close to being the greatest fighter of all time.

Personally I think Pacquiao is top 20 all time as of right now and his career isn't over.

Vallejo and Daly City have big filipino communities. I wouldn't be surprised if he hits up Daly City next.

he is an entertaining fighter, but he needs to beat mayweather to be considered in the same breath as ali

I still think Ali will always be considered the greatest even if Pac beats Mayweather. Ali wasn't just a great boxer but was a social and political figure that stood up to the government during the civil rights movement and the Vietnam war. That's why Ali will always be the greatest.

No one really in boxing considers Ali the greatest of all time though. Sugar Ray Robinson holds that title. Ali is typically ranked in the top 5-10 or so.

Again, Ali is considered the greatest heavyweight of all time, but there are a number of guys that rank higher than Ali pound for pound. Even Ali admitted Robinson was the greatest of all time.
