Pacman-Marquez fever in Mexico
There is great anticipation for today’s visit to Mexico City of Filipino superstar Manny “Pacman” Pacquiao on the final leg of his international promotional tour for what will be his third match against the Mexican hero Juan Manuel “Dinamita” Marquez, to be held November 12 in Las Vegas. Many Mexican fight fans have asked for time off at their jobs or simply will not attend school to attend this unprecedented event at 1PM at the Monumento a la Revolución, where an estimated 50,000 fans are expected.

the first stop of Pacquiao and Marquez in their World Press Tour is in the Philippines where many fans, both of Pacquiao and Marquez, welcomed them.. the Filipinos were able to show their hospitality to Marquez so I guess, now that Pacquiao will be in JMM's territory, Mexicans will warmly welcome Pacquiao..like what Bob Arum said, not all Mexicans go for JMM so as the Filipinos, they all not go for Pacquiao but then again they support these two boxers all the way til their match..
