Piers Morgan Steps Into the Ring With Manny Pacquiao… Interview Special to Air Friday, November 11 at 9:00 p.m. ET/PT

CNN prime time talk show host Piers Morgan will step into the ring with worldwide boxing superstar Manny Pacquiao when the Friday, November 11 edition of “Piers Morgan Tonight” features a visit with the reigning WBO welterweight world champion.

In addition to an instructive sparring session with the knockout king, Morgan conducts interviews with Pacquiao, who is a Congressman in his native Philippines; Top Rank chairman Bob Arum; and Pacquiao’s longtime trainer, the accomplished Freddie Roach. The interviews take place at Roach’s legendary Wild Card Boxing Club in Hollywood, CA.

The program airs exclusively on CNN, Friday, Nov. 11 at 9:00 p.m. ET/PT.

It’s doubtful that Pacquiao does so much as throw a half-hearted punch in jest towards Morgan, but nonetheless it’s a good excuse to promote Pacquiao-Marquez 3 the following night, and get Pacquiao even more exposure.

Of course, if you want to see Pacquiao spar with a celebrity, and actually hit him, take a look at the video of Pacquiao punching Daniel Tosh from several months ago.
