WATCH: Pacquiao-Mayweather official weigh in, final staredown
The fight we are all waiting for is about to happen. The “Fight of the Century“, which will determine the pound-for-pound supremacy and crown the No. 1 fighter of the era is almost here. But before they trade punches inside the ring, the two pound for pound kings have a final staredown during the official weigh in ceremony on May 1 at at the MGM Grand Garden Arena, Las Vegas, Nevada.
For the first time in history, the once free public event weigh in ceremony was changed to a “with pay” event.
In anticipation of the large number of expected to crowd at the venue, the promoters decided to charge an entrance fee of $10 per ticket in order to watch Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Manny Pacquiao tip the scales. But this did not stop 11,500 boxing fans who are more than willing to pay to see Mayweather and Pacquiao. The entire arena was open for a sold-out weigh in. It is not surprising because it will be a fight which will unify the two champions’ welterweight world titles; Mayweather holds the World Boxing Association and World Boxing Council champion titles and Pacquiao is the World Boxing Organization champion.
The “Pambansang Kamao“, stepped on the scale first. Looking relaxed, the eight-division world boxing champion weighed in at 145 pounds. Mayweather, the five-division world boxing champion and carries an record of 47 wins with no defeat, weighted in at 146 pounds. A deafening roar went up from the crowd when the two champion fighters stood face-to-face in a stare down at the front of the stage. All the proceeds from the ticket sales will go to the charities picked by Mayweather and Pacquiao. Pacquio chose Lou Ruvo Center for brain health as his charity. Mayweather picked Susan B. Komen Foundation, a breast cancer charity.
