The final media press conference for Rumble at Rama XII was held Monday morning at the Delta Chelsea Hotel in downtown Toronto. In attendance were local and international networks and media covering the event in Casino Rama, Orilla, which is approximately 90 minutes north of Toronto.
Trainer of the Year Freddie Roach was formally introduced to the media in Toronto for the first time. Although he is here to coach Ana for her WBO Super bantam world women's title against Maria Villalobos, the demand for Coach Roach's time was incredible as he was asked numerous Manny Pacquiao questions from all media sources.
Team Julaton stated that this fight will be full of fireworks and will showcase what women boxing is all about.
Team Villalobos addressed the media and commented that they are here to win and take the championship belt away with them.
Rumble at Rama XII will be televised live across Canada through TSN on June 30th Wednesday night, which is the eve of Canada Day. The broadcast will also be shown on GMA Pinoy TV.
