In this four minute video clip of the Manny Pacquiao concert he is seen running the gamut from upbeat old rock n' roll to the ballad he sang on Jimmy Kimmel.
With a set that began with Ritchie Valens' classic, "La Bamba" he then cruised through, I am told, an old Tagalog pop tune and finished with a duet of "Sometimes When We Touch".
His back-up singer's harmonic voice gave the song the touch it was missing when he crooned alone at the mic during a pre-fight appearance on the Jimmy Kimmel late night show.
His face was bandaged after taking quite a few blows from the warrior named Miguel Cotto, but he showed no signs of wear and tear as he jumped around on stage in great spirits.
This one is for all of you who voted with your comments in my previous article about wanting post-fight coverage by "24/7 Pacquiao/Cotto".
Enjoy the snippet of video and realize that it is a rare athlete who could kick up his heels on a concert stage after taking that kind of punishment in the ring.

The song after "La Bamba" is actually an old Tagalog rock and roll song and not a Spanish pop tune.
manny, you're a ham!! LOL!!! you're unique, you're my hero!!! only you can do a concert after a big mega fight. you make me proud...
Thanks again Miss Paula Duffy....nice video...i wouldnt say the same in the audio department....But i would make a parallel in Manny\s career as a boxer to the best Filipino Singers..that is aside from Manny...filipino singers are one of the best in the world..and that maybe an understatement
His voice sucks! He is good in boxing only
Thanks Ms. Paula Duffy, for showing the other side of MP, Actually, the happy side of every filipino, who finds time to enjoy , be happy after Pain...after pain..and most of all afterpain again and again . ..noel summercools
way to go Pacman ! That's what we call having a real good time after a hard fight ... yahoo...i'm feeling good too man. hahaha :)
Stick to boxing Manny your singing ain't going to cut it bro'...
His voice may not be that good, but please how many boxers could do what he did. (And those who hate his voice are watching him too.) The man had a good time and there were people who really cheered for him while he was singing, well they may love to see him singing and I think that enough motivation for you to get on stage and have a good time
Thanks to haynakuubosnanamanorasko for correcting my reference to the pop tune.
Mabuhay ka Manny! ehehehe,even Michael Jackson took voice lessons for his last concert tour before he died. Kaya mu yan, voice lessons. Wooohoooo!
We can all learn from a man who has so much love for life. Go Manny! You are a gift from God.
Just 4 nfo: d embed video on MP’s post fight concert, the Tagalog song played: PANAHON NA PARA MAGSAYA (time 2 have fun), FORGET MUNA ANG PROBLEMA (forget 4 d moment d problems) is fitting tribute to recap MP’s day after d Cotto fight....
attitude of the century....way to go manny...enjoy life..damn it!
