ARLINGTON, TX - About 15 TV cameras, hundreds of cameras and camcorders, a genuinely packed media section and maybe a thousand fans packed what is called the East End zone above the field at Cowboys Stadium for easily the biggest and loudest of the three press conferences to announce the Manny Pacquiao vs. Antonio Margarito fight on November 13th.
The fired up crowd loudly booed Margarito as he was first escorted to the dais by a bevy of beautiful Cowboys Cheerleaders but the boos became cheers eventually as Margarito easily towered over Pacquiao by over fight inches in height when they posed facing each other.
Even the largely Mexican crowd cheered for Pacquiao as he was introduced and swept onto the dais by another team of gorgeous cheerleaders.
Many were there to see their heroes. Many were there for a picture with or an autograph of either fighter or anyone remotely famous.
The presser wasn't on the field as the first press conference for Pacquiao vs. Joshua Clottey back in January to kick off their March fight. But today's was where the presser was during fight week for Pacquiao vs. Clottey.
It probably had to do with NFL rules or at least because the landlord (the Dallas Cowboys) played a game last night and the field was in no condition to be converted to press conference form so quickly.
Top Rank president Todd DuBoef was the emcee of the event and he came prepared to turn the anti-Margarito fans into believers with information about the three-time champion they might not have known about. He did an exceptional job.
DuBoef was filling in for the second press conference for his step-father Bob Arum who left the media tour when it was discovered his eldest son, John, was missing from a hiking expedition in the Seattle area.
Cowboys owner Jerry Jones was there in the middle of everything and it was probably his idea to have the fighters wear white Cowboys jersey numbers 11 and 13 to signify November 13th as the date of the fight for everyone with a camera.
World Boxing Council Vice President Mauricio Sulaiman stood in for his father, Jose Sulaiman, (WBC President) and awarded gifts of belts and trophies to assorted dignitaries and commending the Texas commission for taking on such a controversial fight others passed on such as California.
Pacquiao stole the show with his poise and the graceful way he answered questions as the media was right in his face mostly asking questions he has answered many times before.
Both fighters stayed long after the questions to take pictures and sign posters and gloves for their fans.

You can Distinguish Class miles away, Japanese and others come to mExico to fight, but they part as friends as they came. Pilipinos, love to be in first page , and make lots of Vulgarity, thats the difference
Well Floydie you better watch this fight in HBO, ppv or free doesn't matter what matter is the two pugilist are the two ELITE boxer you duck because of your cowardice. Just continue your fight using your tick, loud mouth, that's where you are excellent anyway. You're a great pretender mate just to overcome your fear you talk as if you are a tough guy, just an advice try to be a person sometimes. Hey take a look at your back Pacman is there, run
Welcome back Pacman...... Can't wait to see you fight again......

Try to talk to me Floyd, I'll see you in vegas.
NICOLAS CAGE
Some of us have strong tongue problem, but pilipinos have a Nostril problems but they still want to act emotional cute
FIRST OF ALL, FLOYD JR. ENGLISH ISN'T PROPER ENGLISH AT ALL. IT IS MORE LIKE EBONICS OR LANGUAGE SPOKEN BY UNEDUCATED PEOPLE IN THE GHETTO. SECONDLY AND MORE IMPORTANTLY, YOUR RACIST RANT IS A DISGRACE TO ALL MINORITIES:BLACK,BROWN,YELLOW AND RED. YOUR FOUL MOUTH SLURS IS A DISGRACE TO YOUR FOREFATHERS WHO WHO TO INDURE ALL THE INSULTS,DISCRMINATION AND HURT FOR CENTURIES FOR THE COLOR OF THEIR SKIN. I"M SURE YOU ANCESTORS WILL DIE IN SHAME FOR NOT RESPECTING THEM. LISTEN TO YOURSELF, DON'T YOU THINK THAT THE WORLD ARE AMAZED AND DUMBFOUNDED THAT YOU SPEAK LIKE THAT WHEN YOU PREDECESSORS HAD TO ENDURE INSULTS AND SLURS HURLED AT THEM FOR CENTURIES.....
Im gonna buy mu ticket early, it's hard to afford last minute price on Ebay.
I was gonna buy mu ticket early, but when I found out that Pedman wasn't taking a blood test I changed my mind.
gayweather will also return, first week of december, against another champ. gayweather will once again prove that he is the best boxer.. problem is , against another filipino, nonito donaire... wtf..

Don't Involve US. Pilipinos Don't Involve US, coz Pilipinos like to kiss shameless ASS. They believe coz they speak some Nostril problem Inglishi they are part of the big leagues, but as you see, as soonest they find out that they are no different, they cry murder. Shamless as kissers,Shamless as kissers,Shamless as kissers Don't Involve US
You can Distinguish Class miles away, Japanese and others come to mExico to fight, but they part as friends as they came. Pilipinos, love to be in first page , and make lots of Vulgarity, thats the difference
Why you do not hear, Guillermo Rigondeaux vs big mouth Runito Runaire. That Runaire is not stupid, now since Arum mentioned a fight vs Guillermo El Chacal Rigondeaux he's keeping a low key scare mouthy pinoy
Margocheato beat up is the only apology Pedman will get. I am very sure Mr. Arum will agree to get ready of this egocentric headache.
Stop fooling yourselves all the racist remarks left by Filipinos in regards to the Mayweathers issues. Pilipinos are MEMEME society. Money for mommy, money for, pappy, money for kuya, money for sis, money for the pamilia and so on, thats' you hear when she's married to a foreigner.
or Pilipinos can sing, can dance are funny can work in the spectacle the tubo etc.... boy mememememememememememememememememememem 24/7memememememememememememememememememememmememememememememememememememememememem24/7mememememememememememememememememememem24/7 and don't forget western union
If somebody tells me how many boxers are from PERU, I will tell you how much about Boxing ARIZA (ALICIA) knows about Boxing
Where are the usual Manny's entourage who follows him everywhere? is Manny's money gone so his friends will abandon him now? The leeches are gone when there's no more blood to suck.
To Pacman's entourage:

Did anybody cares what Floyd said?? For my part, Pilipinos are not Team players,we are doing fine here in America and they always try to stir trouble. Ironically when we needed them in IRAk as soonest it got HOT, they left. Pull a speedy Gonzales and Skip town, vamonos. So for my part they can get #$%@^&*
Margarito boooooed? HAHAHA! Well deserved. That jerk is undeserving as hell of this opportunity. I am glad the fans treat him the way he should be treated.
