Manny Page #4
Great. Best press we've ever had.
Good, let's hope it continues.
FREDDlE:
He's been around boxingfor a long long time.
And for him to say Manny's the
best fighter he's ever had of all time
is a very, very,
very strong statement.
Call you when l get out of
the elevator.
Michael is very valuable
and without Michael it would be hell
promoting Manny.
l'd like to send you on an errand.
You haven't bought the ticket yet.
725 text messages.
l can't find yours.
As always, been a pleasure
Well, that's what l need.
Could you get somebody to
get me ten copies of 24/7?
l said, "lt's been a pleasure",
and that led you to say,
"l need ten copies of 24/7"?
Regardless of what Manny said,
there's no room.
There's no room.
l don't sign autographs,
l'll take a picture.
Oh, for Manny?
No, Manny's not signing.
Well, you guys can't air any of this
anyway till l sign a release.
[LAUGHS]
FRANKLlN:
Michael Koncz came outon the scene in the mid 2000s.
Freddie introduced Michael to Manny.
Freddie has often said that it was
the biggest mistake of his life.
He would like to impose himself
and show everybody
that "l am next to Manny Pacquiao."
Of course, maybe it's just ego trip,
I don't know.
Look, you need to,
if you don't want to get paid,
then don't sign it but if you
want to get paid,
you got to sign the document.
-Sign away.
-Can we...
Very simple, not exclusive.
lf they want to sign more cards,
they have to come renegotiate.
When l first started approximately
eight years ago, l was
really not doing anything except
if he wanted to ask me something,
he would ask me for my advice.
And as time progressed,
l started handling the boxing.
We got rid of his prior manager
and then got more involved
in the boxing.
Now, I handle all the financing,
disbursement of money,
receiving of the money.
MlCHAEL:
Just make surel get the money...
You will get your money,
you have Bob's backing.
MlCHAEL:
That's right...MICHAEL:
Handled millions of dollars.Everything is very well documented.
I can account for every single penny,
if I have to.
There really wasn't any documentation
on accounting.
Nothing was done.
No receipts were kept.
Nothing was recorded.
Everything was kind of
handwritten down.
You know, handwritten. "l spent
this on this, l spent on this."
That's enough box or you need more?
MlCHAEL:
But we can't do it that way.[SlNGlNG] I can stand on mountains...
Then this one with a smaller pen,
this is because they're making one
special card with your picture on it.
So, that's the signature line,
l need you to sign in the box
so they can scan it
and put it on the card.
lt makes sense?
l'm hoping that's going
to make dollars, not cents, dollars.
most miserable person on earth.
Anything that feels good
would kill him.
Sex has to be an impossible act for
him because that requires enjoyment.
[LOUD BEEPlNG]
ALEX:
: When I first came aboard,Manny had a lot of chronic problems.
He had shin splints,
he had plantar fasciitis,
he had shoulder problems.
He just did the same thing every day.
There was nothing
really challenging about it.
Concentrate, focus.
Time.
RONNlE:
Alex Ariza has donea lot for Manny,
in terms of strength and conditioning.
And, squeeze,
squeeze, squeeze... Time.
l like it, l like it.
RONNlE:
The moment he came in,Pacquiao put on power,
speed and explosiveness.
Just a little bit.
Squeeze as hard as you can.
Hold it.
-[GRUNTS]
-Last one.
[GRUNTS]
l think Alex is the best strength
and conditioning coach in the world.
He's learned to be the best
in the world
and he's learned with Manny Pacquiao.
ALEX:
Even Freddie says sometimes,"Don't get too close to these guys."
But, when you wake up with them
and you eat with them
and you're with them all day,
I think that the relationship then
becomes no longer coach and athlete,
almost being brothers...
Because you're together for so long.
[lMlTATlNG CRYlNG]
[LAUGHlNG]
ALEX:
Anytime he's hurt,he comes to you,
when he's hungry, he comes to you,
He doesn't feel right,
he comes to you,
when some thing's not right,
he comes to you,
So, the relationship just evolves
that way, l think it is inevitable.
One moment of silence, please.
ALEX:
The news broke that De La Hoyaand Pacquiao was going to go off.
He said, "Dude, l can't believe
l'm fighting my idol.
l used to watch Oscar
when l was a little kid."
[GRUNTlNG]
Good shot.
ALEX:
I had just barely got himto 1 35.
Now, I have to make him jump
two more weight classes to 1 47?
And it's Oscar De La Hoya.
It's one thing if you're jumping
weight classes
to fight some cheeseburger.
We're fighting one of the best
fighters in boxing.
He was not only the face of boxing,
but a dangerous fighter.
Not to mention,
Freddie said it's going
to destroy both of our careers,
if Manny gets beat.
[LAUGHlNG]
Looking good, bro.
Do your thing, man,
just wanted to say hello.
MARK:
He's fast, he's fearless,and he's got a lot of power.
and De La Hoya is a lot bigger.
But, he's got too much power,
too much heart.
Oscar fighting that little guy?
Don, get over here.
What is he trying to do, man?
Why would he want to fight him?
[EXCLAlMlNG LOUDLY]
MANNY:
We're focused on speed.We're trying to develop the power.
De La Hoya's style in the ring.
My motivation has been his skills.
My motivation has been
his youth, his speed.
His power.
My motivation has been
his relentlessness inside that ring.
That's what really drove me to go
to feel no pain.
Manny Pacquiao is a fighter.
That's why l'm looking forward
to this fight.
lt's going to be fun.
Everybody said that De La Hoya
was too big
and was going to massacre him.
And, there was a bill
in the Philippines,
to ban the fight because
he would get killed.
[TV COMMENTATOR 1 ] The objective is
to protect the pride of our nation.
Protect him from a possible
debacle that may be
detrimental to his health.
[TV COMMENTATOR 2]
Some say this will be a circus.
Because we see a big man
fighting a small man.
De La Hoya was like Goliath
to our David, Manny Pacquiao.
People thought he was crazy,
I thought he was crazy.
But not to the point of going to
Congress to stop the fight, no.
Why would you stop a guy from
[BOXlNG REFEREE]
Okay, Oscar, Manny,
you both received your instructions
in the dressing room
I want a good, clean fight.
Obey my commands at all times.
Above all, protect yourselves
at all times.
Let's go.
[BOXlNG BELL RlNGlNG]
COMMENTATOR 1 :
The height differentialdid not show up so graphically
at the weigh in yesterday.
Today, they do look
COMMENTATOR 2:
He's bending his headso that is almost no
height difference.
COMMENTATOR 1 :
That's right...COMMENTATOR 2:
Pacquiao lands
