PACQUIAO- BRADLEY 2: FULL WEIGH-IN RESULTS AND PHOTOS By Ed de la Vega, DDS PhilBoxing.com Sat, 12 Apr 2014 Las Vegas NV: Top Rank Promotions in cooperation with Pacquiao Promotions and their main sponsor, Tecate Beer, held the official weigh-in for the fighters for tomorrow?s big bust at the MGM Grand Garden Arena. The event, done with 85 % of the crowd being Filipinos, was relatively quiet compared to other events where Pacquiao was involved. The obvious lack in numbers from the Bradley camp tells us that even if he is the world champion, Tim Bradley does not have the tremendous following like previous Pacquiao opponents like JM Marquez or Ricky Hatton. Manny Pacquiao (55-5-2, 38KO) of Sarangani, PHL hit the scales at 145 lbs while Tim Bradley (31-0-0,12KO) of Palm Springs CA was a tad heavier at 145.5 lbs. For the main supporting event with the NABO Lightweight title at stake, Arash Usmanee (R) (20-1-1,10KO) of Red Deer, Canada tipped the scales at 135 lbs. His opponent, Rey Beltran (L) (28-6-1, 17KO) of Hollywood, CA was half a pound lighter at 134.5 lbs.
