Eight-Division World Champion Manny Pacquiao Faces Unbeaten Champ Keith Thurman in Welterweight World Title Fight Broadcast Live to Cinemas Nationwide

Pacquiao vs. Thurman

DENVER, June 26, 2019 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — Boxing’s only eight-division world champion, Philippine Senator and regular WBA welterweight champion Manny “Pac Man” Pacquiao returns to face undefeated Super WBA Welterweight World Champion Keith “One Time” Thurman in a powerhouse 147-pound showdown broadcast live on Saturday, July 20 from the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas. With his speed, power and tremendous boxing skills, Thurman represents the most dangerous challenger that the future Hall of Famer Pacquiao has faced in recent bouts. This high-stakes match will firmly give the winner a claim for the top spot in one of boxing’s deepest and most talented divisions.

Pacquiao vs. Thurman

Tickets for “Pacquiao vs. Thurman” can be purchased online at www.FathomEvents.com or at participating theater box offices now.

The live broadcast of “Pacquiao vs. Thurman” presented by Fathom Events, Premier Boxing Champions and FOX Sports is set for Saturday, July 20 beginning at 9:00 p.m. ET / 8:00 p.m. CT / 7:00 p.m. MT / 6:00 p.m. PT / 5:00 p.m. AK / 3:00 p.m. HI. Boxing fans throughout the U.S. will be able to enjoy the event in more than 175 select movie theaters through Fathom’s Digital Broadcast Network (DBN). A complete list of theater locations is available on the Fathom Events website (theaters and participants are subject to change).

A three-time Fighter of the Year and the Boxing Writers Association of America’s reigning Fighter of the Decade, Pacquiao (60-7-2, 39 KOs), who hails from Sarangani Province in the Philippines, is the only sitting Congressman and Senator to win a world title. Pacquiao’s boxing resume features victories over at least seven current and future Hall of Famers, including Oscar De La Hoya, Ricky Hatton, Marco Antonio Barrera, Erik Morales, Miguel Cotto, Shane Mosley and Juan Manuel Marquez.

In his last match on January 19, Pacquiao put on a vintage performance against four-division champion Adrien Broner, scoring a 12-round unanimous decision in the 70th match of his illustrious career. It was his first time fighting in the U.S. in two years. Before that, he scored an impressive knockout over Lucas Matthysse to win his version of the WBA welterweight championship in Malaysia last July 15.

The 30-year-old Thurman (29-0, 22 KOs) is the longest reigning welterweight champion in boxing, having collected his WBA title with a stoppage victory over Diego Chaves in 2013. He has successfully defended that title eight times and became a unified welterweight champion when he defeated Danny Garcia by split decision to win the WBC title. Thurman was out of action for nearly two years due to injuries before getting back into the ring with a hard-fought victory against Josesito Lopez in January.  His power punching earned him the nickname “One Time.”

“Fight fans coast-to-coast were thrilled to watch Pacquiao’s victory over Broner live and larger-than-life in their local cinemas in January,” said Ray Nutt, Fathom Events CEO. “We’re pleased to partner again with our friends at FOX Sports and Premier Boxing Champions to bring another of Pac Man’s highly-anticipated bouts to the big screen.”

Food professionals exploring the 'Have an Olive Day' stand at the 'Summer Fancy Food Show'.

One of the star products of the Mediterranean Diet, the table olive, returned to the exclusive showcase of food and drinks for producers and buyers of New York City, The Summer Fancy Food Show.

NEW YORK, June 26, 2019 /PRNewswire/ — Olives from Spain and their campaign Have an Olive Day! returned for the third consecutive year, to one of the most important gastronomic fairs in the HORECA sector in the US, attended by more than 17,000 professionals each year. This campaign has the support of the prestigious chef José Andrés, and with an investment of 7.5 million euros in 3 years.

To view the Multimedia News Release, please click:
https://www.multivu.com/players/uk/8569151-olives-from-spain-summer-fancy-food-show/

It provides a new opportunity to discover, enjoy and share the quality, versatility and variety of olives, the most authentic Mediterranean snack.

The European tradition travels the world

The US imports more than 155 million pounds of European olives per year, reaching more than 120 markets worldwide. In fact, 95% of the pepper-filled olives consumed by Americans come from the European country of Spain.

Thanks to these past two years of the campaign, American consumers identified some of the varieties and uses of this versatile product, which allows the creation of recipes of all kinds. However, the high gastronomic potential offered by olives is not known in its entirety and for that reason, showing the infinite number of elaborations with olives as protagonists, is still the main goal of “Have an Olive Day!”

With a presence at trade shows such as the Summer Fancy Food Show in New York, one of the most important food fairs in the USA and through actions in different areas of the media, the sector brings the infinite gastronomic possibilities of olives to consumers and professionals around the country.

This year chef Alberto Astudillo was also present, who with his original dressings delighted the attendees, who enjoyed all the variety and flavor of European olives. During the 3 days of the fair, everything related to olives was divulged and some combinations were tasted, such as olives with chilli peppers and walnuts, olives with goat cheese and paprika or crackers with olives and ginger.

JOSÉ ANDRÉS, an extraordinary ambassador

The popular chef José Andrés actively supports and collaborates with the campaign promoting European table olives in the US. A lover of olives and a faithful defender of the Mediterranean Diet for more than 20 years, he has created and managed some of the most successful restaurants, and he has become a well-known presenter of important television programs, defending healthy habits and in 2012 and 2018 he was one of the 100 most influential people in the world by Times magazine. In addition to being named Humanitarian Person of the year by the James Beard Foundation this past year and win the American Express Icon Award 2019 this month.

About INTERACEITUNA

INTERACEITUNA is the Interprofessional organization of table olives recognized by the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food that represents the entire sector to produce, process and market table olives. Created to implement different programs and activities of general interest, INTERACEITUNA promotes knowledge of Spanish table olives and carries out research and developments related to production and production techniques. INTERACEITUNA has partnered with the European Union to promote this product.
