Floyd Mayweather after the Filipino was welcomed by deafening cheers from his supporters on the eve of Saturday’s hotly anticipated welterweight showdown.
Pacquiao, 57-5-2 (38 knockouts), tipped the scales at 145 pounds in front of a massive crowd at the MGM Grand Garden Arena where fans purchased $10 tickets to gain entry.
Undefeated Mayweather, 47-0 (26 KOs), a 2-1 favorite for what has been billed as the ‘Fight of the Century’, was weighed second, hitting the scales at 146 pounds for the scheduled 12-round megabout.
The showdown between the two best boxers of their generation has been more than five years in the making and is expected to be the biggest-grossing prize fight of all time.
