LAS VEGAS -- The official weigh in for the fighters featured in tomorrow?s fight card promoted by Roc Nation and Golden Boy Promotions and shown live on PPV via HBO was done today at the South Pacific Ball Room of the Mandalay Bay Casino Resort.
Why the event was held on such a small ballroom that was opened to the public was insane. The crowd was too much for the ball room to accommodate and the lines where extremely long prompting many fans to just walk away.
Then the press area was something else. That for the TV people was elevated but the spot for the still photographers was on the floor level making it very difficult to take decent shots as the folks in front had a tendency to stand and the folks behind were disadvantaged.
But given that the crowd, at least those who made it inside were noisy but they seem to lean more towards Canelo. That is perfectly understandable given that the Puerto Ricans were too far to travel to Las Vegas.
