Nov 15: Meeting the People's Champ

Well, we ALMOST got to meet him. But since Cotto gave him a pretty good beating and his ears were bleeding, he had to make it short and head to the hospital.

After the previous night's shenanigans, I got back to the room and passed out around 6:30am. We were up at 10:30am to request a late checkout, but Denson got word that Manny Pacquiao would be attending a mass at Mandalay Bay. We got our asses out of bed and packed and rolled out.

Mark was able to get a picture with Buboy and his son. 2 WEEEEEEEEKS! EASY!


This mass turned into a small press conference with Filipino paparazzi everywhere, and speeches given by the pastor, the Pacquiao camp and family, and by Manny Pacquiao himself.




No singing, just expression of gratitude to his supporters and fans. The most humble champ.


RAISE THE BELT UP!


The pride and hero of our nation.


One last fam shot before we part ways. Hope to see you all next spring! BRING ON MAYWEATHER!


A quick bite to eat before we left.


Took these two sleepyheads back home. Epic weekend. See you soon Vegas.
