CHICAGO SUN-TIMES PROVIDES LIVE VIDEO STREAM OF HOMETOWN OPEN WORKOUT
CHICAGO, IL.– The Chicago Sun-Times will provide a live video stream today to boxing fans around the globe as World Boxing Council Lightweight Champion David Diaz along with his manager/trainer Jim Strickland and co-trainer Mike Garcia host a public/media workout at 1PM/CST at JABB Boxing Gym, 410 N. Oakley in Chicago. The live video stream can be viewed at www.sun-times.com/sports.
Said Roman Modrowski, Chicago Sun-Times Online Sports Editor, “David is such a humble person and dedicated athlete, I think he's a fantastic representative of Chicago on this global boxing stage. That's why we do what we can to tell his story in every possible way, whether in the paper or on our Web site.”
Diaz regularly updates his online blog with the Chicago Sun-Times with more information on the fight and his training. The blog can be viewed at

The fistic debate as to who is the best will finally be settled Saturday, June 28, when World Boxing Council (WBC) super featherweight champion and No. 1 Pound for Pound fighter MANNY PACQUIAO (46-3-2, 34 KOs), challenges the pride of Chicago, WBC lightweight world champion DAVID DIAZ (34-1-1, 17 KOs), in a fight fittingly titled Pacquiao-Diaz Lethal Combination.
