HOLLYWOOD, CALIF. (April 16, 2015) – It was Manny Media Mania at L-Erbgħa tal- media workout for Fighter of the Decade, eight-division world champion and boxing superhero Congressman MANNY “Pacman” Pacquiao. Pacquiao (57-5-2, 38 Kos), who represents the Sarangani province in the Philippines, hosted a Hollywood Media Workout with his Hall of Fame trainer Freddie Roach and Hall of Promoter Bob Arum.

 

Over 300 media from around the globe flocked to Wild Card Boxing Club to ask the trio about Pacquiao’s Mejju 2 welterweight world championship unification battle against undefeatedFLOYD “Flus” MAYWEATHER JR. (47-0, 26 Kos), fil-MGM Grand Garden Arena fil Las Vegas.

 

Mayweather vs. Pacquiao is promoted by Mayweather Promotions and Top Rank Inc., the live pay-per-view telecast will be co-produced and co-distributed by HBO Pay-Per-View® and SHOWTIME PPV® li tibda fl 9:00 p.m. U/ 6:00 p.m. PT.

 

What Pacquiao, Top Rank CEO Bob Arum and Hall of Fame trainer Freddie Roach qalL-Erbgħa:

 

MANNY PACQUIAO, Eight-Division World Champion

 

I feel very excited for the fight.

 

I have a lot of sparring partners that are similar to Floyd’s fighting style, we have done well. We know what to expect.

 

I have watched tape on Floyd to make sure that our strategy and technique in training camp is correct.

 

My entire career defines my legacy; I have already accomplished great achievements in my career while excelling in different weight divisions. This fight is an additional achievement in my career; it’s the biggest fight in boxing history.

 

I can say that beating Floyd would be the biggest victory of my career.

 

More people are interested and informed about this fight now than they would’ve been five years ago.

 

Style wise, I am the same fighter I was five years ago. My determination, inspiration and killer instinct is the exact same as it was five or six years ago.

 

“Għalija, boxing is my passion. I enjoy boxing and giving honor to my country of the Philippines. My concern is to bring an exciting fight to my fans. My first concern going into every fight is how will be to be able to entertain my fans, give them enjoyment and make them happy.

 

The reason I am so loved by fans is because of my reckless style of fighting. People like exciting fights with actual punches being thrown.

 

BOB ARUM, Top Rank CEO

 

Manny is motivated, he’s ready for the fight. I expect a great performance from him.

 

It’s a very interesting fight because Floyd is a defensive specialist who has a good right hand and picks off his opponents. He’s an extraordinarily good fighter.

 

Pacquiao’s strength is speed, particularly his foot speed and the fact that he throws so many punches and attacks from low angles. He really hits harder than Floyd does, so that’s really what it’s going to be about.

 

Floyd has a different defense than Juan Manuel Marquez. His defense is primarily his shoulder roll. A lot of his defense is geared against a right handed fighter. Ma 'dak imsemmi, I think Manny is going to surprise a lot of people with how he is going to be able to reach Floyd.

 

I would say Manny is more motivated for this fight than any other fight I’ve seen him prepare for.

 

I’m looking forward to Mejju 2. I love Manny’s chances of winning, that’s the main thing. He looks great, he’s motivated, no nonsense, and I think he’s going to put on a performance for the ages. It’s going to be hard for him to top his performance against Oscar De La Hoya, but I think he will in this fight.


FREDDIE ROACH, Pacquiao’s Hall of Fame Trainer

 

We have a great idea of when and where we are going to attack Mayweather.

 

This fight was five years in the making. Promoters should realize that these types of fights are what’s best for boxing and we should have more fights like this. I’m not surprised by the hype surrounding the fight.

 

Manny has really raised the bar in this training camp. He’s a different Manny Pacquiao than I have seen him going into previous training camps. He is punching so much harder in training for this camp.

 

Manny is better than ever, his attitude is different and I’ve never seen him work this hard. His speed is faster, his punches are harder. I’m really happy where he’s at. His legs look great; he’s on his toes all the time.

 

Mayweather is a good counter-puncher, but Manny has faster hands and his combinations are better than Floyd’s.

 

Both fighters have great experience, so I don’t believe that will be a factor in the fight. The biggest thing is that each fighter comes in with a different style. Floyd is a counter-puncher but Manny must be the one to enforce the fight.

 

I believe that Manny being a southpaw will be a factor in this fight. Manny showed me tape of Floyd fighting a southpaw and told me that that is exactly what we are going to do in this fight.

 

I can tell how much this fight means to Manny because he has watched tape on Floyd. Manny has never watched tape on any fighter before.

 

Since Manny moved to 147 he hasn’t knocked many guys out, so getting the knockout in this fight isn’t a concern for me. If Manny fights at 140, then he does knock guys out, but at this weight he is fighting guys who are bigger than him.

 

Floyd may be a bigger guy, but we will still win the fight.

 

This fight is much bigger than when Manny fought Oscar De La Hoya. Manny is a different person going into this fight. He hit me so hard the other day that I believe it’s the hardest I’ve ever been hit by a fighter who I’m training.

 

I don’t believe that Floyd ever wanted this fight, he was forced to take it by the public and the media. I wouldn’t be surprised if Floyd pulled out now.

LAS VEGAS – (April 15, 2015) – Aktar minn 200 accredited press members from around the world descended upon Mayweather Boxing Club for Nhar it-Tlieta Floyd Mayweather Media Day. It was the 11-time world champion Mayweather’s first and only open training session before his welterweight world championship unification mega-showdown against Manny Pacquiao fuq IS-SIBT, Mejju 2, at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas live on pay-per-view.

 

Superstars Mayweather (47-0, 26 Kos) u Pacquiao (57-5-2, 38 Kos) is promoted by Mayweather Promotions and Top Rank Inc., the live pay-per-view telecast will be co-produced and co-distributed by HBO Pay-Per-View® and SHOWTIME PPV® li tibda fl9:00 p.m. U/ 6:00 p.m. PT.

 

Several dozen television camera crews, columnists gazzetta, kittieba boxing, xandara tar-radju, web reporters, photographers and (video) bloggers watched as Mayweather went through the paces during a 90-plus minute workout that included working the heavy bag, smacking the speed bag, hitting the mitts, jumping rope, stretching and doing calisthenics.

 

Before a training session streamed in high definition across multiple platforms, inkluż permezz tas-satellita għalf, YouTube u l-midja soċjali, Mayweather answered questions from the media inside a specially-constructed tent in a parking lot outside the gym.

 

What Mayweather, Mayweather Promozzjonijiet CEO Leonard Ellerbe, trainer Floyd Mayweather Sr. and unbeaten WBC Super Bantamweight Champion Leo Santa Cruz, who will fight in the top pay-per-view undercard bout on Mejju 2, qal It-Tlieta:

 

FLOYD Mayweather, 11-Ħin Dinja Champion

 

My training camp is basically running the same way. I think it has been smoother than others. I feel very comfortable and happy with my performances. They push me hard at camp. They know what I need.

 

The timing for this fight is right. This fight is about legacy, fans and family. I surround myself with all of the right people.

 

I can’t say that this matchup is about hype. This is real life. This is two future Hall of Famers in a mega-fight.

 

I’ve done record breaking numbers before and it looks like we’re going to do it again.

 

Everything in life is about timing. I have no regrets that this fight didn’t take place five years ago. I didn’t think it was that big then, but it continued to get bigger and bigger. Not just in boxing, but outside of the sport. Pacquiao has continued to grow outside of the sport. We didn’t need to rush anything.

 

This is going to be an exciting fight. Our styles are totally different. He is very, very reckless. Every move I make is calculated. I’m always 5-10 steps ahead of my opponent.

 

We’ll see what happens when the fight starts. But when all is said and done I’m going to be the winner.

 

Pacquiao is strong and solid but I don’t know if he can make adjustments like I can. I feel tremendous.

 

This was a difficult fight to make happen, but we made it happen. This fight is one of the biggest ever in boxing.

 

I’m still going strong. The last time I looked, I kien 47 u 0.

 

Anyone can get hit with a great shot, but I can make more adjustments and Manny can’t.

 

I don’t think Pacquiao expected me to look as strong or big when we faced off (at the L.A. konferenza stampa).

 

I walk around at 150-152 pounds to weigh 147 liri. Other boxers weigh around 160-170 before coming down.

 

I’ve got one more fight on my contract. I couldn’t be happier with SHOWTIME and CBS.

 

Las Vegas is the boxing capital. During a Floyd Mayweather fight weekend, you can shop, party, stay out late and do anything you want. The city of Las Vegas has everything.

 

There were offers to fight other places, but MGM Grand is my home.

 

Anything I’ve asked of MGM Grand, they’ve done for me in a heartbeat. They’re all about making entertainers and athletes happy.

 

LEO SANTA CRUZ, WBC Super Bantamweight World Champion

 

I’m very grateful for the opportunity to fight on such an unbelievably huge card. I really want to thank Floyd Mayweather.

 

Any boxer would like to be on this card where millions of people are watching. I’m happy to represent Mexico on this night and on this fight card.

I look at it as a key opportunity for me to make an even bigger name for myself, which is my goal because one day I want to become a superstar like Floyd. That’s why I train really hard all of the time.

 

There are no little fights for me. I consider every fighter dangerous. You lose when you think a fighter is not on your level and then he comes in hungrier than you. That will never happen to me.

 

I don’t know who I’m fighting yet, but I’m sparring different guys with different styles.

 

There’s always a lot at risk for me. People keep talking about all of these big fights, but if I don’t win now, there will be no big fights in the future.

 

I know who I want to fight, but I don’t pick my opponents; I leave it up to my team. They make those kinds of decisions. My job is to fight and win.

 

I have to stay concentrated. I have to maintain focus and concentration. I can’t get ahead of myself. I jagħtu 100 percent in training and in the ring. I always want to put on a great fight for the fans.


LEONARD ELLERBE, CEO ta Promozzjonijiet Mayweather

 

Boxing is at an all time high at the moment. There are a lot of great things going on. Between this fight and getting boxing back on network television, it’s all great for the sport.

 

This fight will not only elevate the sport in general, but it will bring in the casual fan to the sport and that’s a great thing.

 

The impact that Floyd Mayweather has had on this sport is immeasurable. People won’t be able to appreciate that until he retires. He’s done so much for this sport. He’s given fighters a platform to say to other promoters that they deserve the lion’s share of the money. He’s brought more sponsorships to the sport.

 

Floyd Mayweather is the highest paid athlete in all of sports and he happens to be a boxer.

 

I think the demand thus far only indicates how big this event is. This is a fight that’s been talked about for five years now and everyone is going to get exactly what they’ve been asking for.

 

Manny Pacquiao is a great fighter. He’s been in a number of great fights and he’s had a terrific career thus far. These are the two best fighters of this generation and come Mejju 2 there will be one man standing and it will be Floyd Mayweather.

 

There’s no doubt it’s going to be a great fight. Ninsab verament eċċitati. I can see firsthand the day-to-day preparation that Floyd puts in and he’s working just as hard as ever. The fans are going to get a great fight that night.

 

I don’t know what Manny Pacquiao has to do on Mejju 2, but I know what Floyd Mayweather has to do. He has to do what he normally does and go in there and execute his game plan and I really expect Floyd to knock him out.

 

SR FLOYD Mayweather., Mayweather’s Trainer & Father

 

Floyd is as well rounded a fighter as there has ever been, but he’s really still here because of his defense.

 

Other guys fight with their head and their mind and come up short. It’s his great defense that has kept him on top for so long.

 

I want you all to see it. It’s so plain and simple what he’s going to do. Even Ray Charles could see it.

 

I honestly never thought that this was going to happen. So many people were trying to say Floyd was scared. Lets see on Mejju 2 who is scared.

 

I can’t tell you why or how, but here’s an update, Floyd is going to kick his a** and knock Pacquiao out.

 

I didn’t watch one tape on Pacquiao. There is no reason to study him. He’s not at this level.

 

Floyd is the best, I must confess. Nothing is going to stop Floyd Mayweather.

 

Pacquiao’s trainer Coach Roach (Freddie Roach) is lying to you. Trying to trick you all. Floyd’s not getting knocked down in the gym. Floyd is the one knocking people down. Roach blows smoke with no hope.

I’m extremely excited to put one of the most popular and exciting Mexican fighters in the world on the pay-per-view undercard of this historic event on Cinco De Mayo weekend,” Said Mayweather, president of Mayweather Promotions. “I’m all about giving my loyal fans what they want. All the fans watching on fight night will be in for a great show when Leo Santa Cruz enters the ring.

 

I’m so honored to be the lead-in for Mayweather vs. Pacquiao and I’m thrilled to have the opportunity to do so on Cinco De Mayo weekend,” qal Santa Cruz. “This will be a huge night for boxing and I plan on showing everybody that I’m all about action-packed fights. I’m grateful to Floyd Mayweather and Mayweather Promotions for giving me this opportunity and giving the Mexican fight fans another reason to cheer on Mejju 2.”

 

Mayweather vs. Pacquiao marks the second-consecutive Mayweather pay-per-view event featuring Santa Cruz. In September he wiped out Manuel Roman with a second-round technical knockout as the co-main event ofMAYHEM: Mayweather vs. Maidana 2.Previously he had fought on the non-televised undercard of MAY DAY: Mayweather vs. Robert Guerrero, with a technical knockout over Alexander Munoz. Barra minn hekk, this is the fourth consecutive fight for Santa Cruz at the MGM Grand Garden Arena and his ninth overall in the state of Nevada of his 30 tissielet professjonali.

 

In non-pay-per-view undercard action, a pair of Mayweather Promotionsfighters will look to keep their undefeated records intact. Super welterweight prospect Chris “Sweet” Pearson (11-0, 9 Kos) will square off against tough brawler Said El Harrak (12-2-2, 7 Kos) fi bout 10-round.

 

“Jien żgħażagħ, hungry fighter who has big aspirations in this sport,” said Pearson. “Mejju 2 is a great opportunity to show the world why I will be a future world champion.

 

Aktar, cruiserweight knockout artist Andrew “Il-kruha” Tabiti (9-0, 9 Kos) takes on an opponent to be determined in eight rounds of action.

 

I can’t wait for this opportunity to get in the ring and show off my power on Mejju 2,” said Tabiti. “I’m always ready to put on a show for the fans and I hope they’re ready to see a big knockout.

 

Mayweather Promotions is dedicated to putting on the biggest events for fans and with the inclusion of these great young fighters we are ensuring that once again,” Said Leonard Ellerbe, CEO ta Promozzjonijiet Mayweather. “Chris Pearson and Andrew Tabiti are future world champions who will have a chance to perform on the biggest stage in all of boxing on Mejju 2, and I can’t say enough bout how excited we are to have Leo Santa Cruz on the card as the lead in for Mayweather vs. Pacquiao.”

 

The fan-friendly two-division world champion Santa Cruz has defended his super bantamweight title numerous times in impressive fashion on his way to earning a reputation as one of the most exciting fighters in the world. The 26-year-old won his first world title in 2012. Fl 2013 he won his super bantamweight title, which he now holds. Born in Huetamo, Michoaca de Ocampo, Mexico but fighting out of Los Angeles, Santa Cruz looks to entertain the fans at MGM Grand on Mejju 2 when he fights on the highly anticipated Mayweather vs. Pacquiao pay-per-view.

 

An undefeated prospect out of Dayton, Ohio, Pearson is coming off of an impressive unanimous decision in Dececmber 2014 over the hard-hitting Steve Martinez and he looks to keep his momentum going when he fights on Mejju 2. Fil biss 24,, Pearson had recorded eight straight victories inside the distance before his most recent bout. He takes on the 27-year-old El Harrak who fights out of Henderson, Nev. by way of London.

 

A 25-year-old with extreme knockout power, Tabiti last fought in December 2014 and delivered with a first-round knockout of Ernest Reyna. It was his ninth knockout in a row to start his career. Imwieled fl Chicago iżda ġlieda kontra barra mill Las Vegas, “Il-kruha” hopes to make it 10 knockouts fil 10 tries when he enters the ring onMejju 2.

Hawnhekk huma liema parteċipanti mill L-Erbgħa tal- konferenza stampa kellhom jgħidu:

 

Floyd Mayweather

“Din il-ġlieda jistgħu stajt ġara żmien twil ilu, imma hija l-ħin id-dritt issa. Huwa ta 'matchup unbelievable u naf l-fannijiet ma jistax jistenna għal dan. Il-ħin huwa dritt u ż-żmien hija issa.

 

“Aħna finalment għamilha jiġri. Kollox huwa dwar timing.

 

“Ma kien hemm ebda riżentiment lejn (ex promotur) Bob Arum, I kien biss kuntent li jsiru imgħallem tiegħi stess wara snin ta 'xogħol iebes u dedikazzjoni ruħi biex boksing u t-tagħlim wkoll il-naħa tan-negozju ta' dan. Biż-żmien, I eventwalment kellhom isiru boxxla tiegħi stess. M'hemm l-ebda sentimenti iebsa lejn Bob Arum fil-livelli kollha.

 

“Huwa dejjem tajjeb biex tara l-aħjar ġlieda l-aħjar, dak hu hekk intriganti dwar dan matchup.

“Naħseb li lilna laqgħa wara l-logħba basketball Miami Heat, laqgħa one-on-one, Inħoss li dan huwa r-raġuni għaliex din il-ġlieda ġara.

 

“Huwa verament niżlet għal tim tiegħi u t-tim tiegħu bilqiegħda u komunikazzjoni, jkollna fuq l-istess paġna bażikament.

 

“M'hemm l-ebda sens ta 'eżenzjoni li l-ġlieda huwa magħmul. Fokus tiegħi huwa biss fuq jgħixu ħajja ta 'kuljum tiegħi u tiffoka fuq dak li nagħmel. I ma jkunux jistgħu jgħixu ħajja tiegħi għal ħaddieħor.

 

“Aħna ffaċċjati l-guys aqwa f'dan l-isport u imsawta l-guys fuq. Wara din il-ġlieda, li nemmen I se tkun rebbieħa, allura aħna se timxi fuq ieħor Guy.

 

Mejju 2 għandna kompitu iebsa quddiemu lili. Manny Pacquaio hija ġellied tajba, imma l-aħħar darba I ċċekkjati I jiffaċċjaw tmien southpaws u rebaħ tmien darbiet, so I am not inkwetat.

 

“You aħjar jemmnu li jien se tkun fil-forma top u tkun l-Floyd Mayweather aħjar I tista 'possibbilment tkun.

 

“Huwa dejjem kbira biex jiksbu lura lill-belt kbira ta 'Las Vegas. Lights, camera, azzjoni. Il Grand MGM hija l-lukanda aħjar fuq l-art. Kien dejjem l-għan tiegħi li jiġġieldu hemmhekk. L-ewwel darba I marru hemm għal ġlieda kien meta I kien 17, Rajt James Toney u Roy Jones.

 

“I kellhom karriera unbelievable. Kollox beda bl missier tiegħi. Jekk ma kienx għalih I ma tkunx fejn jien illum. Meta inti tpoġġi l-biċċiet kollha tal-puzzle flimkien, I biss jħossu bħal jien l-biċċa ċentru. Kull jum meta naħseb dwar il-karriera tiegħi jien ma jiddispjaċina xejn. Aħna se jinżlu fl-istorja bħala wħud mill-ġellieda aħjar, il Mayweathers ġlied.

 

“Nispera li l-ġlieda jissodisfa l-hype. Kollu li nistgħu nagħmlu bħala ġellieda huwa jmorru hemmhekk u jwettaq u jagħmlu dak li nagħmlu l-aħjar.

 

“Għandi xejn li jipprova fuq Mejju 2. I taf dwar il-ħiliet tiegħi, Naf dak I tista 'tagħmel u naf dak I iġibu l-isport ta' boxing. I am verament mbierka li jkunu maqsuma ir-reġistri kollha fil boxing. Dritt issa I ma tara l-ebda ġlied partikolari tkissir kwalunkwe ta 'rekords tiegħi.

 

“Naħseb li l-istili jagħmlu tissielet, u naħseb li żewġ stili differenti tagħna jagħmlu għal ġlieda eċċitanti.

 

“Kwalunkwe ġellied hija perikoluża. Meta I jiffaċċjaw avversarji differenti, I tista 'figura Guy out istantanjament. Naf dak li hu ma tajjeb u dak li hu ma tagħmel tajjeb. Ix-xogħol tiegħi huwa biex issir taf dak li hu ma tagħmel tajjeb.

 

“Jekk ġellied mitluf qabel, telliefa hija fil-dahar tal-moħħ tiegħu. Għalija, kollha jien ghamilt fil-karriera tiegħi huwa win, hekk rebbieħa huwa dejjem fil-fehma tiegħi.

 

“Kemm flus jien jagħmlu verament ħafna mhuwiex fokus tiegħi. I ma tkunx fejn jien lejn llum jekk ma kienx kollha għall-kittieba u iżbokki tal-midja. I am thankful għal kull persuna, jekk kienx storja tajba jew storja ħażina. Għal 19 snin, inti guys jinżammu lili rilevanti. Safejn il-persona flus, huwa verament reinvented ruħha. I kien "Pretty Boy Floyd’ u mbagħad I terga 'lura bħala Money Floyd "’ Mayweather. Dan kollu dwar li diġà sar innifsek. Irrid biex ikomplu jagħmlu investimenti intelliġenti hekk grandkids tiegħi huma OK.

 

” Jien dejjem ikollhom ir-rimedju li tagħmel dak li nagħmel biex toħroġ fuq nett.

 

“Jien pretty żgur missier tiegħi għandha pjan logħba kbira hekk nistgħu jmorru hemmhekk u jagħmlu dak li nagħmlu l-aħjar. Pjan logħba tagħna huwa li tkun intelliġenti, tkun l-ewwel, jieħu l-ħin tagħna u x-xogħol isir.

 

“Naħseb li Manny Pacquaio huwa ġlied interessanti ħafna. Għalih li tikseb sa fejn huwa issa, huwa ovvju li hi kellha tagħmel id-dritt ħaġa.

 

“Ebda wieħed għandu ilhom jistennew sakemm sirt 47-0 bet fuq lili, dawn għandhom ħadthom ġew imħatri fuq lili mill-bidu.”

 

Manny Pacquiao:

“I am so happy li din il-ġlieda sar, u naf li fannijiet boxing jħossu l-istess mod.

 

“F'Miami tkellimna dwar il-ġlieda u I mifhum li kien I-naħa B u kien il-ġenb A.

 

“Nemmen li din il-ġlieda kien ukoll jiswa l-stenna. Aktar nies huma familjari ma 'magħna bħala ġellieda, anki nies li mhumiex fannijiet ta 'boxing jafu dwar din il-ġlieda.

 

“Il-poplu Filippin huma ser jaraw din il-ġlieda.

 

“Kamp ta 'taħriġ sejjer tajjeb. Aħna kuntenti ħafna. I am aġġornament taħriġ tiegħi kull jum fuq Instagram tiegħi.

 

“I simili huwa l-underdog nidħlu ġlieda. Ġie filwaqt li peress stajt kien wieħed. Din id-darba madwar hija tagħti me ħafna aktar motivazzjoni u jiena determinat li jipprova li I tista 'tirbaħ.

 

“Din il-ġlieda huwa importanti ħafna għalija u fl-istorja boxing. Aħna ma rridux li jħallu marka kwistjoni fil-moħħ ta 'fannijiet boxing. Fannijiet Boxing kienu ħerqana biex tara din il-ġlieda għal ħames snin. Dawn ġew tistaqsi lili l-istess kwistjoni u huwa finalment jiġri.

 

“I iżommu ġlieda għaliex boxing hija passjoni tiegħi, I love boxing. I kienu kapaċi biex jgħinu lill-familja tiegħi permezz boxing.

 

“Il-poplu Filippin huma eċċitati ħafna għal din il-ġlieda u I ma jistgħux jistennew biex iġibu rebħa lejn il-pajjiż.

“Ma rridx biex jiġġudikaw, imma I am kunfidenti ħafna dwar din il-ġlieda. I kien aktar inkwetati dwar tissielet tiegħi kontra [Oscar] De La Hoya, [Anthony] Margarito u [Miguel] Imsajjar, minn I am bil-ġlieda kontra Floyd Mayweather.

 

“Heureuse-fannijiet hija l-aktar ħaġa importanti għalija; Irrid li jagħmluhom kuntenti. I nikseb xi kultant emozzjonali fil-ċirku minħabba I biss jixtiequ jagħmlu kuntenti.

 

“I ma jsibux skoraġġuti jibqgħalu ma 'telf fil-boxing. Huwa parti tal-logħba u jien ħadt it-telf u għamlu myself ġlied aħjar. Huwa dwar il-bini innifsek up u t-tidwir lilek innifsek fis ġlied aħjar.

 

“I se jirbaħ Mejju 2.”

 

Leonard Ellerbe, CEO ta Promozzjonijiet Mayweather:

“Aħna eċċitati ħafna biex jagħmlu l-istorja llum billi ħabbret uffiċjalment l-akbar ġlieda fl-istorja tal-boksing u wieħed mill-akbar avvenimenti fl-istorja tal-isports.
“Nixtieq li jirrikonoxxu r-rwol li l Floyd u Manny kellhom fit-teħid f'din il-ġlieda. Il-laqgħa li kellhom f'Miami kien pass ewlieni u nixtieq personalment nirringrazzja lil Floyd biex jagħmlu dan iseħħ.

 

“Matul is-snin Floyd tkun għamlet l-Grand MGM dar tiegħu u dawn marru fuq u lil hinn minnha sabiex tiġi żgurata l-ogħla kwalità għal kull avveniment Floyd. Dan se jkun ta Floyd 11th ġlieda konsekuttiva fil-Grand MGM u l- 14th żmien li hu se ġġieldu hemm fil-karriera tiegħu.

 

“Mayweather vs. Pacquiao hija ġlieda tremend bejn żewġ champions kbar u żewġ irġiel kbira. Mejju 2 se jkun spettaklu b'differenza xejn li Las Vegas li qatt rat qabel.”

 

Bob Arum, Fundatur u CEO ta 'Top Rank:

“Hija bdiet meta Les Moonves [president tal CBS] waslet għall-dar tiegħi. Huwa żar lili fuq koppja ta 'okkażjonijiet li tgħid lili li ried li jagħmlu din il-ġlieda iseħħ. Ried lili biex tmur Manny [Pacquiao] u jiddiskutu miegħu l-purse seines li tkun aċċettabbli.

 

“Kellna djalogu frekwenti. Ħassejt kunfidenti li kien se jiġri minħabba Moonves se tagħmel dak kollu li seta 'biex dan iseħħ.

 

“Ma kienx qabel il-logħba basketball f'Miami fejn Manny kien konvint li l Floyd riedu l-ġlieda.

 

“Hija kienet probabbilment l-ġlieda l-aktar diffiċli biex jagħmlu li stajt kien parti ta '. Hija ħadet ħames snin biex jagħmlu.

 

“Ħaġa waħda hija ċara; huwa l-akbar ġlieda ta 'dan is-seklu.

 

“Għandi l-ebda animosity ma Floyd Mayweather. Floyd dejjem baqgħet ħabib tajjeb; Għandi xejn affattu ħażin li jgħidu dwar Floyd bħala persuna.

 

“I love Manny Pacquiao u Freddie Roach. Meta Manny jirbaħ fuq Mejju 2, li jien ċert hu se, I se jkollhom ammont kbir ta 'sodisfazzjon għall-tnejn minnhom. Huma se għamlu x-xogħol biex dan iseħħ.

 

“Stil Floyd huwa verament tajbin għall-ġlieda kontra l-qlubija tal-lemin b'idejhom. Il southpaws li hu jkun ġġieldu taw lilu problemi u hu tela 'hawn fuq, iżda l-southpaws hu ġġieldu fil-passat m'humiex Manny Pacquiao.

 

“Din il-ġlieda se jġib dħul tremenda għall kollha ta 'Las Vegas. I kieku stajt tpoġġew f'pożizzjoni terribbli jekk jiena stajt ppruvaw li jiċċaqalqu din il-ġlieda out ta 'Las Vegas, bħala I am a resident. Tassew, il-ġlieda jappartjeni fil Las Vegas. Eluf u eluf ta 'nies se pour fis Las Vegas biss biex tkun parti mill-xena. Dan se jkun l-akbar avveniment fl-istorja ta 'Las Vegas.”

 

Freddie Roach, Trainer Pacquiao tal-:

“Naħseb li Floyd kellhom ċans aħjar ta 'swat Manny Pacquiao hames snin ilu minn hu ma issa. Saqajn Floyd huma aktar sparatura issa u hu jkun naqas pjuttost ftit. I think we jistgħu jieħdu vantaġġ minn dik.

 

“Floyd jgħid li jrid jiskambjaw ma ġellieda aktar issa li jagħmilha ġlieda aktar eċċitanti, imma naħseb li mhux veru. Hu ma jimpurtak mill-fannijiet fil-livelli kollha u l-unika raġuni irid ibiddel aktar huwa għaliex il-koxox tiegħu mhux se tieħu lilu out tal-ġlieda.

 

“Jekk Floyd għandha tiskambja mal Manny Pacquiao naħseb li tajjeb għalina u hu għalhekk li naħseb li aħna qed tmur biex tirbaħ din il-ġlieda.

 

“Naħseb li din il-ġlieda se jibdlu l-logħba tal-boksing.

 

“Manny imsejħa me up u told me li hu ma tista 'ferrovija fil-Filippini, għaliex dan huwa wisq crazy mal-fannijiet kollha hemmhekk, huwa ma tistax tiffoka.

 

“Għandi xi regola fil kamp tat-taħriġ f'dan il-ħin li jekk m'intix qed produttivi fil-gym għat-taħriġ, allura inti ma tistax tkun ta 'madwar. L-istrateġija ta 'din il-ġlieda hija importanti ħafna u differenti minn tissielet passat. Aħna ma tistax jkollhom xi Spies fil-gym; aħna qed biss jaħdmu fuq il-pjan logħba u tiffoka fuq dak Floyd qed tagħmel. Naf kif Floyd iwaqqaf lin-nies u jagħmilhom jimxu fil shots.

 

“Manny huwa motivati ​​ħafna għal din il-ġlieda. Int għandek tieħu Floyd barra taż-żona kunfidenza tiegħu. Manny jaf kif tħabbat lilu. Aħna se jagħmlu l-mixja dritt qabel we attakk lilu.

 

“Jien ridt li jkollhom xi żgħażagħ, ġellieda jmiss bħala msieħba sparring għall Manny. Hemm ġellieda żgħażagħ minn Chicago, Massachusetts u l-Finlandja li huma ġejjin fil lill spar ma Manny. Stili tagħhom huma aċċessjonijiet perfetta għall Manny. Huma jistgħu jiksbu knocked out u mibgħuta dar, imma aħna ser tara. Għandi l-imsieħba sparring ħejjew.

“Pjan logħba tagħna huwa li tirbaħ kull rawnd. Jekk irridu jiksbu l-eliminatorja, allura dan huwa biss bonus. Floyd se dip fis-enerġija Manny ta. Dik hija l-iżball li xi ħadd se tagħmel kontra southpaw. Għandna biex tirbaħ l-ewwel rawnd u jieħdu Floyd minn żona kumdità tiegħu.”

 

Richard Sturm, President Entertainment & Sports MGM Resorts International:

“Aħna ferħana li din il-ġlieda wasal fil-qofol tiegħu u li se ssir fil MGM Grand. The resort is home to the biggest names in sports and entertainment and on Mejju 2 we will host one of the greatest fights the sport will have ever seen.

 

“Matul is-snin, kemm Floyd u Manny jkunu trattati fannijiet ġewwa l-MGM Grand Garden Arena u dawk li jaraw fuq PPV għal esperjenza ġlieda thrilling. Filwaqt tissielet qabel tagħhom kienu ferm eċċitanti, we believe there is nothing that can compare to the spectacle these two champions will deliver on Mejju 2.”

 

Ken Hershman, President HBO Sports:

“Matul il-ftit xhur li ġejjin, l-fannijiet, pundits u kittieba se jkissru kull aspett ta 'din il-ġlieda.

 

“Nixtieq li tħares lura u japprezzaw kif aħna ltqajna hawn. Kien 2001 meta kid żgħażagħ barra mill-Filippini jismu Manny Pacquaio għamel id-debutt HBO tiegħu. Inzerta, l-headliner tal-ġlieda kienet Floyd Mayweather. Floyd għamel id-debutt tiegħu fl HBO 1997 u minn dakinhar hu stinka fuq HBO jew HBO PPV 26 ħinijiet.

 

“Filwaqt li dawn iż-żewġ qatt maqsuma karta darb'oħra qabel Mejju 2, li ħadthom kull marret fuq li jkollhom Sala tal-karrieri fama u saru ż-żewġ ġellieda akbar ta 'ġenerazzjoni tagħhom. Floyd kien headlined disa avvenimenti PPV HBO u Manny 17 Avvenimenti HBO PPV. Dawk 26 avvenimenti ikkumpilata fuq 21 miljun jixtri PPV u aktar minn biljun dollari fi dħul.

 

“Fuq Mejju 2, dawn iż-żewġ superstars ser tipparteċipa fl dak li aħna lkoll nafu se jkun il-boxing avveniment uniku l-akbar ta 'kull żmien.

 

“Aħna kburin li wieħed jerġa 'jagħmlu l-istorja fuq Mejju 2 ma Mayweather u Pacquiao.”

 

Stephen Espinoza, Viċi-President Eżekuttiv & General Manager, Showtime Sports:

“Meta Floyd Mayweather iffirmat ftehim storiku tiegħu mal SHOWTIME sentejn ilu, huwa wiegħed lilna żewġ affarijiet: wieħed, li kieku kien jingħata ġlieda aktar spiss u; tnejn, kull wieħed mis-sitt ġlied taħt deal tiegħu se jkunu l-akbar avvenimenti possibbli kontra l-aħjar avversarji possibbli. Fast quddiem sentejn, u Floyd żamm kull kelma ta 'wegħdiet tiegħu.

 

“Issa għal ftit tieni darba fil-ħames ġlied ma SHOWTIME, Floyd qed jiġġieled opponent li ħafna nies ħasbu li qatt ma d ġlieda. SHOWTIME PPV u Floyd stabbilit rekord PPV ma 'l-ewwel avveniment f'Settembru 2013 u aħna ħerqana li rendiment ieħor rekord-tkissir fuq Mejju 2.

 

“SHOWTIME kien involut f'xi wħud mill-avvenimenti PPV ikbar fl-istorja inkluż Lennox Lewis vs. Mike Tyson fil 2002 u Mayweather vs. Canelo [Alvarez] fil 2013. Iżda ebda waħda minn dawn l-avvenimenti ġġeneraw it-tip ta 'eċċitament u antiċipazzjoni fl-attenzjoni tal-midja li jaqbel mal-isteriżmu li din il-ġlieda diġà ġġenerat.

 

“Din hija r-raġuni li lkoll fil SHOWTIME u CBS huma tant kburin li ikunu qed idaħħlu f'din il-ġlieda flimkien. Eċċitati, kburin, ferħana, dawn huma xi wħud mill-aġġettivi għadd biex jiddeskrivu sentimenti tagħna dwar dan l-avveniment, imma sorpriżmhuwiex wieħed minnhom. Hekk kif aħna magħluqa jittrattaw tagħna ma Floyd fl 2013, il-ġlieda Pacquiao kien prijorità ewlenija kemm għall Floyd u għalina.

 

“Kull meta kien żmien biex jiddiskutu avversarju Mayweather, Manny Pacquiao kien dejjem għoli fuq il-lista Floyd.

 

“Peress li l-CEO ta CBS u fan żmien twil boxing, Leslie Moonves kien il-forza wara dan jittrattaw u r-raġuni ewlenija għaliex din il-ġlieda saret.

 

“Aħna nafu li Floyd hija l-konsensus numru wieħed ġlied fl-isport, nafu li Floyd hija l-aktar tkellem dwar atleta fil kollha ta 'l-isports u flimkien ma Floyd Mayweather, SHOWTIME sar l-distributer PPV numru wieħed fil-televiżjoni. Aħna ħerqanin sabiex breaking aktar rekords u tagħmel aktar istorja fuq Mejju 2.”
