...took in a fight.

Winchell Campos, a member of Manny "Pacman" Pacquiao’s staff, told the Phillipine Daily Inquirer that 16 tickets were provided for the Celtics for Saturday night's Pacquiao-David Diaz WBC lightweight title fight at the Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas. Pacquiao won the fight.

From the video clip above, the Celtics are apparently big fans of the Filipino ring icon, while Pacquiao is an ardent Celtics fan.

  1. FREE TICKETS for the 16 millionaire Celtics. It would have been more meaningful had those tickets been given to the Filipino Americans in the Las Vegas area who are struggling to make both ends meet.
