No trash talk needed to promote the fight

Manny Pacquiao, of the Philippines, last fought in November 13, 2010 against Antonio “Tijuana Tornado” Margarito. Prior to the fight, there were a lot of trash talks and Pacquiao’s coach, Freddie Roach ,was mocked by Margarito and his friend boxer Brandon Rios because of the coach’s Parkinson’s disease. On that fight, Margarito had to go through 12 punishing rounds, suffered a broken orbital bone and went to a Dallas hospital right after the fight. Margarito almost got blind with that barrage of punches Manny Pacquiao gave to him. During that fight, Shane Mosley was at the sideline watching Pacquiao display his skills. He then discussed with Pacman’s promoter, Bob Arum, presenting himself as the next opponent of the 8-division world champion.

Shane Mosley got Pacquiao’s nod and helped in the promotion of the Pacquiao-Mosley fight. There were no trash talks at all and both boxers showed respect at each other. Mosley believes that it probably wasn’t worth inciting Pacquiao if he were to fight him.

Manny “Pacman” Pacquiao and “Sugar” Shane Mosley believes there is no need to talk trash or ridicule each other just to sell the fight. They are both popular boxers and have distinctions in the sport. The only fireworks that will happen will be in the ring at the MGM Grand Arena on May 7.

Sugar Shane and Pacman were correct in being respectful with each other. They distributed about 98% of the tickets within 3 hours after it was sold to the public. The MGM Grand Arena in Las Vegas has a seating capacity of over 17,000, which is not as large as the venue of Pacquiao’s last two fights, Dallas Cowboys Stadium which can accommodate over 70,000 viewers. The good thing about the Las Vegas venue is that they can sell tickets at a higher price and hotels also take advantage from it.

“I may trash talk a little bit” according to Freddie Roach (while laughing), in an interview by Las Vegas Review-Jounal. “But I do think my guy will knock Mosley out.”

Manny Pacquiao and trainer Freddie Roach are already in the second phase of their training. They are in Hollywood, California at Roach’s Wild Card Gym and are closing their doors to the public so they can work out a plan on how to defeat Mosley. They are not taking Shane lightly. Shane is now training in Big Bear, California with Naazim Richardson. The Pomona native can punch in both hands and if Pacquiao is not careful, he might get tagged by a solid punch and lose in a knockout.

Many are already excited to watch the Pacquiao-Mosley fight. For those who want to buy the remaining tickets you may buy it at TicketNetwork.com.
