(updated) Pacquiao-Clottey Fight to be aired LIVE via Pay-per-View at GenSan Gym
It’s final and official!
After getting the assurance from the National Grid Corporation (formerly TransCo) that General Santos City will not experience any power outage or blackout on Sunday, March 14, 2010, GenSan Mayor Jun Acharon immediately decided to push through with the FREE LIVE AIRING on Pay-per-view of the Pacquiao-Clottey Fight at the General Santos City Gymnasium.
At first, the good mayor opted to back out from what has been a tradition in the city to air Manny Pacquiao’s bouts on a giant screen inside the biggest airconditioned gym in Mindanao. This was after the management of SOCOTECO II, the city’s electric power supplier could not assure him of a brownout-free Sunday when the Pacquiao-Clottey fight will occur.
But with this latest development and assurance from the National Grid Corporation itself, then it’s all systems go for the FREE PAY-PER-VIEW LIVE AIRING of the Pacquiao-Clottey Fight at the GenSan Gym in Barangay Lagao.
Both the local government unit of General Santos and the Office of Congresswoman Darlene Antonino-Custodio are once again joining forces to handle the rights from Solar Sports, to broadcast to more than 10,000 people at the GenSan Gym this FREE PAY-PER-VIEW LIVE AIRING of this Pacquiao-Clottey fight.
No admission tickets will be given out in advanced.
Instead, interested parties may just go directly to the gym, line up at the major entrances as early as 7am on Sunday, March 14, 2010; and wait to be ushered in on a first come, first served basis.
Of course, you have to have a ticket to be allowed in first. For tickets, approach your BARANGAY OFFICES for information.
Note: Thanks to Mandirigma for the Poster.

Ang swerte tlga ng mga taga-Gensan at sa kabila ng brown-outs ay makakapanuod pa rin ng inaaabangang laban ni Pacman. Kami kaya mai-air na naman kaya sa cable dito or mag-SopCast na lang uli kami? Mas okay tlga yang big screen diyan siyempre. Tiis lang sa siksikan:)
