SABILLO, RODRIGUEZ SET TO GO
By Ed de la Vega, DDS PhilBoxing.com Fri, 21 Mar 2014

Monterrey, Mexico:- At the press conference for the Sabillo-Rodriguez fight held earlier today at the headquarters of one of the world?s famous beer maker Tecate , a nicely wrapped bus was unveiled to hype the fight. The beer maker sponsored the bus and it?s just as nice as the ones Top Rank does for Team Pacquiao.
Team Sabillo did not waste time in posing in front of the bus for prosperity?s sake.
Sabillo and Rodriguez were cordial during the event for the press indicating the respect each have for each other. It also tells us that fantastic fight is in the making.
Team Sabillo, as ALA Vice President Dennis Canete indicated at the conference is ?very happy about the treatment they are getting in Monterrey?- thanks to Zanfer Promotions.
The Team hotel called Safi Royal Luxury right smack in the middle of Monterrey is very nice. Although slightly short of being really ?royal? the UK way, nevertheless it?s a very fine hotel.
Tomorrow at about noon, the weigh-in for the big fight will be held at the same Tecate venue. We don?t know about Rodriguez although we suspect he will come in the correct weight, but Sabillo is just spot on. ?He even had lots of food today and ?he still where we want him to be? indicated ALA chief trainer, Edito Villamor.
Sabillo will no doubt make weight tomorrow.
Stay tuned more will be coming from Monterrey tomorrow.
