Today at the Manny Pacquiao vs. Juan Manuel Marquez IV weigh-in, all of the fighters and co-main event fighters made weight on their first try. The crowd was a mix of Mexican, Mexican-American, Filipino and Filipino-American fans. Some fans held banners that went as far as saying, “Manny Pacquiao For President,” while others had over sized sombreros with the Mexican flag colors. Fans of Pacquiao chanted, “Manny! Manny! Manny!” Fans of Marquez fired back with a song that basically goes like, “whoa whoa whoa Marquez! Marquez!” Either way, the fight is reportedly sold out already and is doing a live gate of $10.5 million.
Jaun hit the scales first and weighed in at 143lbs. He looked very strong and ripped, possibly the biggest he has ever looked, much like a body builder.
Manny came in at the welterweight limit again at 147lbs on the dot. He looked lean, much like he did at the Bradley fight weigh-in.
The two fighters came face to face for the stare down and I was pleased to see that Manny did not smile this time, as he’s been smiling during his more recent fights. The fact that he did not smile gives me hope that he may be taking this fight more seriously. He is focused, or at least knows he is in for a hard long fight, so he needs to bring it on Saturday.
The fans were loud and excited for their fighters in the packed MGM Grand Garden Arena. However, the overall atmosphere was a lot more tame than the previous weigh-ins for Manny’s fights against Cotto,De La Hoya and even Margarito.
Could this be a sign of the decreasing popularity of the Pac-Man? Or have many of the same fans seen this fight too many times already?
