after watching 24/7 with manny and de la hoya, i noticed that Manny run's at the UNLV track. Just so happened I was about a football field lengths away when he was at campus that December, I was so close yet so far. Now sticking to the current events posted online, sources put up the date to when Manny was making his grand entrance at Mandalay bay. That entrance got pretty packed and very un organized. This morning Anthony and I went to the track to check if Manny was there, no cigar. So I had to leave because of my FINAL radiation physics exam that I had to take. I got out of that exam ASAP only to find out that Manny was already at the track. Anthony, being the super cool guy that he is, gave me the right glove to get signed and he kept the left. The left glove being the left hook that Manny uses at the Manila ICE to knock out his opponents. As I sped through the back roads of campus i saw a small crowd watching manny there. On attendence were his entourage, Freddy Roach, Buboy, and Micahel Moorer (former heavy weight that got knocked out by George Foreman, I wonder if he owns a foreman grill :-p).
Spoke to Roach and asked
-what round freddy?
freddy looked at me and with a delayed response said "uhh I'll take the under, Manny's going to knock him out before the 9th."
-nice, so this is coming from the trainer himself... lets go put our bets in
Immediately, freddy said "no, not yet, the 'brits' are flying in this afternoon and they're all going to drop their bets on Hatton, wait for the lines to change because the odds will drastically move, then place your bets, more money for you."
-Thanks for the info Freddy.
toward the end, I didn't get a chance to grab Manny's autography, althought i did get the 3 trainers, moorer, roach, and buboy. I'll try again. its my ultimate goal!
lol you watch the 24/7 episodes too!? so you finally saw him today?
