Pacquiao to meet President Obama at the White House
25.01.11
Manny Pacquiao will be rumoured to be attending the White House to meet American president Obama as part of his 5 city tour to promote his fight with Shane Mosely.
The Top Rank press tour will begin in Beverly Hills on Feb 10th followed by press conferences in Las Vegas, San Francisco, New York and then Washington.
Elsewhere in the media, the fact HBO will not be involved in the pay per view event has left many wondering if there will be a power struggle with regards the stranglehold that HBO have had on all major fights of recent years.
Bob Arum has decided to take his business to CBS / Showtime, which has a viewer demographic of approximately 115 million homes as opposed to HBO's 30 million.
The plan is for several high profile Fight Camp 360 style shows to be broadcast to normal terrestial viewers to gain more publicity than any previous Pacquiao fight to date.
