Manny Pacquiao announced that his back with ABS-CBN as media partner just recently on TV Patrol. He further explained that it was his personal decision to transfer and that his upcoming match with Ricky Hatton this May 2nd will be aired through ABS-CBN Network.

However, Solar Sports expressed back with an interview in GMA 7’s 24 Oras that the contract they have with Manny Pacquiao as ‘current’ media partner is still valid and binding. Manny did send them a letter stating his transfer but Solar Sports would fight back in the court room for their rights. They say Manny Pacquiao and ABS-CBN can’t just ignore what they have in the contract.

The match of Manny ‘Pacman’ Pacquiao versus Ricky Hatton is just a bit more than one month to go. The battle of the networks for its airing rights has just begun. To whomever it will belong, “Pambansang Kamao” will always be a people’s champ! Get ‘em down one more time!
