Foreman will get Police escort

Foreman, who is studying to be a rabbi, will be observing the Sabbath on the day he will defend his WBA junior middleweight championship. He will be sequestered in a Manhattan hotel room on 92nd Street until about 9:15 p.m. when he will be given a police escort to Yankee Stadium to prepare for the bout.

The escort is needed to keep Foreman from getting tied up in traffic and not having enough time to get his hands wrapped and properly warm up before the main event starts.
"It's going to be less waiting around time that's for sure," Foreman said.

Pacquiao will continue his boxing career even he is Congressman

7 Weight Division world boxing champion Manny Pacquiao believes he can continue his phenomenal career in the ring while fulfilling his dream of helping his poor countrymen as a politician.

“It just needs discipline. You just need time management,” he said.

Still on a high after winning a congressional seat representing impoverished Sarangani province, Pacquiao, 31, said he would continue fighting—both as an athlete and legislator for the people.

“There are many problems in my province, many people who need help and, one by one, we will decide what to do to help them,” said Pacquiao at a grand celebration in his hometown Saturday night.

“I am happy that I won and that people voted for me but it is also a great responsibility and so I must help my countrymen,” said Pacquiao, known as Pacman, who grew up dirt-poor until boxing brought him world fame and riches.

“My agenda is livelihood programs, education, health care and medical assistance. I am thinking of all kinds of bills to pass in Congress.”
