LAS VEGAS--Filipino superstar Manny Pacquiao and his younger brother Bobby arrived in Las Vegas a few hours ago with a convoy of vehicles from LA, ready to shake the boxing world and sow terror in the junior lightweight division.
Pacquiao, accompanied by his lovely wife Jinkee and strumming his guitar all throughout the five-hour trip, got down from his Lincoln Navigator at the Southgate Entrance of the world-renowned Wynn Las Vegas, belted out his latest singe '17' at the lounge, before proceeding to his suite on the fifth floor of the hotel's tower suite.
Younger brother Bobby, with wife Lorelie by his side, also stepped out of one of the vehicles as he aims to defeat Mexican toughie Hector Velazquez on Thursday (Friday in Manila) at the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino here.
Bobby Pacquiao was accompanied by his managers Rex 'Wakee' Salud and Michael Koncz.
Tomorrow, Pacquiao is set to work out at the IBA gym in Las Vegas, together with Bobby.
