Pacquiao parties, hears Mass after win over Clottey

Seven-division world champion Manny Pacquiao partied the night away after defeating Ghana’s Joshua Clottey by unanimous decision on Saturday (Sunday in Manila) at the Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, Texas.

Pacquiao and his entourage proceeded to the Dallas Rangers Ballpark for his victory concert-party.

The reigning World Boxing Organization (WBO) welterweight champion belted tunes with Lito Camo, Madonna Decena and the MP Band. Journey frontman Arnel Pineda, who sang the Philippine National Anthem, also joined in the fun.



The pound-for-pound king returned to his hotel at almost 3 a.m. He took a nap before going down to the Convention Center for the Thanksgiving Mass.

His supporters joined him once again in thanking God for another victory. Pacquiao also thanked his countrymen for inspiring him to win.

Pacquiao’s face was a little bit swollen but he still signed autographs and granted photo opportunities with fans.

After the mass, Pacquiao, his entourage and 170 people set off for Los Angeles, California.

They rode 3 huge buses on their way to the Dallas Airport before boarding the Air Pacquiao. Pacquiao was joined by his wife, Jinkee, her siblings, members of Team Pacquiao and friends from Los Angeles and the Philippines.

Their flight was delayed by 3 hours due to a technical problem. But the Team Pacquiao members were cool with it because they were still not over Pacquiao’s victory over Clottey.

Pacquiao’s chartered plane landed at a private airport in Los Angeles after a 3-hour flight.
