Tomorrow will be the big day of millions of fans around the world of the two great fighter Manny "Pacman" Pacquiao of the Philippines and Ricky "Hitman" Hatton of Great Britain. Today was the weigh-in of the two boxers to hit the mark of junior-welterweight division. Manny got 138 pounds and Ricky got 140-pound limit.

As the two approaches to face-off, thousands of british fans chanting,screaming and endlessly saying in rhythm this phrases "There's only one Ricky Hatton", "God Save the Queen", and "Rule Britannia"with their flag waving proudly. Filipinos as well did their best cheering Manny with high hopes to win for tomorrow's big fight. They did try leveling their cheers to the overwhelming British fans but still overwhelmed by them.

Ricky "Hitman" Hatton said to the thousands of British who flew from Britain just to watch him , to the thousands of American fans and Filipino fans "You will not be dissapointed of tomorrow's fight, and that I promise you."
