BAGUIO CITY ? A five-man HBO television team arrived here to film Manny Pacquiao?s training activities.

Members of the team are director of photography Thom Stukas, sound engineer Bob Bryan, field producer Harley Glantz, producer Abtin Motia and John Roche, cameraman.

The team arrived in Manila last Oct. 2 and stayed there for one night before driving here.

Filiming Pacquiao?s training in preparations for his November 13 World Boxing Council superwelterweight championship duel with Mexican Antonio Margarito was supposed to start yesterday but was called off until the reigning WBO welterweight kingpin recuperates.

Pacquiao had contacted flu and had to stay in bed the whole day forcing trainer Freddie Roach to cancel his scheduled training session for the day.

The team conducted instead interviews with Roach and physical conditioning expert Alex Ariza.
