    Manny Pacquiao must make for a nice distraction for the Boston Celtics.
    Watching the Pinoy Idol in his destructive mode beats thinking about LeBron James and his rampaging Cavaliers.


    I previously took notice that, after the Celtcs disposed of those pesky Chicago Bulls the other night, Eddie House seemed distracted during a post-game courtside interview with Comcast’s Greg Dickerson.


    Dickerson knew why, noting that House was ripping and running to catch the Ricky Hatton-Pacquiao fight on PPV TV.
    “Go watch the fight, Eddie,” the reporter said.


    House then took off like the entire Lakers team was bearing down on him.
    Boston Globe beat writer Frank Dell’Apa, one of my oldest friends and a former boxing scribe in Reno and Las Vegas, informs me that Megamanny’s fight weighed heavily on the mind of superstar Paul Pierce as well.


    “During the press conference, Paul said he wanted to get out of there to go watch Manny,” Dell’Apa said. “I don’t think he caught it live. He and other players were taping or TIVOing the fight. I think Kevin Garnett may have done that as he’s a big Pacman fan also. But The Big Ticket isn’t talking to the media right now.”

    I know you're a big Pacquiao fan, but threads like these are just spamming up the forum. Who cares if Paul Pierce is a Pacquiao fan? It's not important to boxing fans.

    Just goes to show how huge an event PBF-Pac would be.

    I always like seeing boxing get some positive mainstream attention.

    This is important to boxing fans. It's good to know that even big stars of other sports follow boxing. They are very good endorsers of boxing.
