    How come the COtto-Pacquiao press conference tour didn't go to phillipines?

    I've been asking myself this. I mean, Pacquiao easily could bring a crowd of 10000 there, it stopped all over the usa and into puerto rico, why was pacquiaos hometown ignored that way?
    ?

    i thought it was insulting for the pinoy fans.

      It's simply not cost effective. And, as if a PAC fight needs hype over there.

        no one pays to see the fight, they all gather up in a basketball court and watch it live from justin.tv.

              Its free over there, so they don't make anymore money from promoting it.

                i dont buy this "it's far and not cost effective"" bul****, if they came to PR and all over the USA i find it disrespectul they not going over there and give the fans a extra incentive to watch the fight. Floyd went to England, so did Pacquiao. It's kinda racist because their poor over there?

                  I thought it was weird too, but the Phillipines is much further than Puerto Rico and is a foreign country. Puerto Rico is a territory. I'm not sure if that makes things easier, but it might.
