"He will also host a press conference where questions about the potential fight against Filipino Manny Pacquiao will not allowed to be asked."

Perfect. US already know what a moron he is, he needs to let the world know.

I hope no-one buys his PPV in May.

I'm glad no questions of Manny are allowed. This way he won't be using Pacquiao's name to build up his fight in May

even when the guy is doing good things people want to hate i dont get it

They're not allowed to ask him questions about Pacquiao? He's a champion. He's says he's the best. Answering tough questions is part of the job. What a cowardly thing to do. If I'm at a press conferencing or interviewing someone, I should be able to ask what I want. That's a part of it.

I agree about tough questions but is this forum appropriate to answer questions about future opponents?

cmon floyd that is some snobby bullsh#t that your dictating the questions to what can be asked...........ATG greats him and manny but boy do they have horrible egos

Manny already said no right now. Trying to get free to maximize. Finally something smart from pac but i doubt its him. If he doesnt go dumb again and sign extension then we getting fight in 2015

Because he's fake...this is just to boost his image so people will watch his fights. He saw how successful Manny was with it and now he wants that kind of media attention. The only difference is Manny is actually a nice guy.
