As a testament to its being the biggest boxing event in the history of Cebu boxing, more than 3,000 VIP's (local, national and international) have confirmed their attendance for tomorrow's mammoth 'Moment of Truth' card at the Cebu City Sports Complex.
Superstar Manny Pacquiao is on the list of VIP's, along with a very popular city mayor from a big city in Mindanao.
As such, Cebu City Mayor Tomas Osmena has already instructed its Citom (traffic management group) to start at 1PM tomorrow allowing the free use of major thoroughfare Osmena Boulevard for both sides' parking.
Citom's executive officer Arnel Tancinco also informed that fans can also park starting at the old SSS building, even up to Fuente Osmena. Parking will also be allowed at R. Landon Street and in front of Sto. Rosario church, except Pelaez extension and P. Del Rosario St.
More than 2,000 vehicles can be accomodated in the Osmena Boulevard route alone.
