Freddie Roach, Bob Arum and Manny Pacquiao talk November 14th.
This afternoon the media was treated to the wonders of a Freddie Roach, Bob Arum, Manny Pacquiao conference call. After listening to the hour long conference call I can say that those of you without the capacity to attend such an event missed almost nothing. There were a few points of interest, not the least of which was that Freddie spent a significant amount of time telling us all how great Baguio was to the point where it became a bit desperate. Manny for his part added almost nothing to the conversation except for a pretty fantastic "yes and…" to a certain well known Worldwide Leader scribe which led to some awkwardness. The highlights of the conference call can be found below:
* The MGM Grand has sold out of tickets for the event. They are also hearing that the closed circuit locations are doing big numbers for tickets so if you expect to watch the event on closed circuit you might want to get your tickets now.
* Bob Arum: more attention, more interest then any fight he can remember in the last five or ten years.
* Freddie Roach says that Manny is 95% ready right now for the fight on Nov. 14th. READ MORE
