Refreshing
I really like the fact that the interviewer, at the end of the interview, said: "red carpet, Manny Pacquiao vs. Floyd Mayweather". Very refreshing to hear somebody mentioning Manny first. And it was even more refreshing to see that the interviewer happened to be an African-American just as Floyd is. It is nice to see that not all announcers and media have been paid off to mention Floyd first all the time. Or maybe it was just a slip and the guy was fired on the spot, who knows really?

He seems very relax and not serious about this fight, i was watching ESPN earlier and he said that Floyd is just another fighter and he was more worried about Oscar and Cotto than Floyd, wtf Pac, this is the biggest fight of your life, dont slack off.
It has nothing to do with slacking off, just that he's not worried. Seeing that he's been on the big stage before (unlike guys like Canelo), I can believe Pacquiao on that.

Boy these guys work hard! Pacquiao seems to love Radio. He should get him to sing a Radio Rahim theme song!
