Arnel sings for Pacquiao-Clottey's fight

Yes it's confirmed! Arnel Ignacio, the vocalist of the American rock band "Journey", will sing the Philippine national anthem in the much-awaited fight of Manny "Pacman" Pacquiao and Ghanaian Joshua "The Grand Master" Clottey this March 13 at the Cowboys Stadium in Dallas Texas. That will be Mach 14 here in the Philippines.


Manny invited Arnel to sing the Philippine national anthem "Lupang Hinirang". Arnel will be going to Dallas this Thursday. This was actually the third invitation from Manny. Arnel accepted the request because he was worried that Manny will think that he's ignoring his request.


“Pupunta ako sa Dallas to sing sa laban ni Manny, this Thursday [ang alis ko],” Pineda said.
(“I am going to Dallas this Thursday to sing in Manny’s fight.”)
“I’m really happy kasi matutuloy na dahil nahihiya na ako kay Manny kasi pangatlong invitation na ito sa akin. Baka kasi isipin ay iniisnab ko. So finally, matutuloy na,” he said.

We has not able to sing for Manny's previous fight because of hectic schedule with the band, Journey.
