LAS VEGAS? There was hardly any show of disrespect or flamboyance in Floyd Mayweather Jr. as he addressed the media during Wednesday?s press conference for his fight against Manny Pacquiao.
In fact, Mayweather took the Pacquiao route in his opening spiel.
?First of all, I wanna thank God,? Mayweather said. ?God made all of this possible.?
Mayweather and Pacquiao face off on May 2 at MGM Grand here, a welterweight unification bout that is expected to be the highest grossing fight of all time by far.
Even Mayweather, who has owned some of the biggest fights, seemed in awe of the interest his showdown with Pacquiao generated.
?This has been a truly amazing turnout,? he said.
