    Most of it was a whole bunch of backslapping and mutual plugging between allies (entities including Tecate, MGM Grand, Showtime, HBO, the NSAC, Top Rank, Mayweather Promotions...) and then pretty much just this, as far as noteworthy bits:





    This was a highlight too:


    (that is the WBC Emerald belt, specially made for this)

    Literally nothing of use was said in the final press conference. Will sum it for u in a couple of points

    1. Once again Ellerbe welcomed the media/press to the final press conference and introduced everyone

    2. Arum went on with his BS about Manny saving lives, how he's such a saint, DRUG TRAFFICKING, how HBO is #1 etc.

    3. Floyd and Manny were both extremely humble

    4. They got one of the most corrupted officials from the Philippines to spew some B.S

    5. Once again, SR did not speak

    6. The WBC presented the emerald belt worth a million dollars. Though it did actually look amazing haha

    7. Manny and Floyd stared down for approximately 30 seconds

    8. That's it.

    9. Boring as hell.

    Floyd BETTER win this fight. Otherwise he's losing, and then in front of the entire world, Manny is going to basically call him evil and say he needs god and offer to share his faith with him :lol::patsch

    Oh yes

    10. Arum talking up the Mandalay Bay while ripping on MGM Grand despite the fact that MGM owns them both. ROFL

    11. Pacquiao was on his CELL PHONE the entire time and everyone else was laughing at Arum while Arum was delivering his usual rhetoric about the dumbest **** one could think of.

    Did you see the look on his face the entire time?

    Jesus, that was PROBABLY the best part of this whole thing. Seeing the anger and bitterness on his wrinkled up face.

    lots of hating on Arum but fact is, he makes everyone look like amateurs. Let's be honest, Rochard Sturm, Ellerbe have not done a good job running things and papa Arum is scolding them.
