    Arum on Chavit: "He should not have been there!"

    ARUM ON CHAVIT: "HE SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN THERE!"

    LAS VEGAS--There was some few tense moments here yesterday at the final press conference of the De la Hoya-Pacquiao fight after co-promoter Bob Arum mispronounced the name of Ilocos Sur ex-governor Chavit Singson.

    Arum, apparently unaware why Singson joined the presidential table of the press conference when his name was not part of the list, had to approach Pacquiao for the name of the guy who was seated beside promoter Rex 'Wakee' Salud and Nevada Athletic Commission chairma Keith Kizer on the presidential table.

    When Arum went back to the podium, he announced "He is a very popular personage from the Philippines. He is Mr. Takison, whatever."

    At the media room following the press conference, Arum told a group of mediamen that Singson was not originally in the line-up of people who would join the presidential table.

    "He (Singson) should not have been there. Manny's brother should have been on that seat," Arum told the media, referring to Pacquiao's younger Rogel.

    The incident only highlighted the growing consensus of some media people that Team Pacquiao is a bloated mixture of personalities made up of different agenda.

    Unfortunately, Singson was caught in the crossfire, and whoever put him in that presidential table in lieu of Rogel Pacquiao definitely has some agenda to perpetuate.

    In contrast, Team De la Hoya looked every bit lean and mean, each member having a clear set of job description assigned to him.
    Ugh, even one of the most celebrated boxing promoters in history now has a first hand knowledge on how Filipino politicians act.

    buti nga sa kanya....

    a caveat to Bob Arum: wag siyang magawi dito at baka ihagis siya sa hunting ground ni Mr. Takison (son of Taksil? yun ba yun?)

    Nakita ko sa News yung reaction ni Chavit kay Arum.

    Ang pait ng ngiti nya, nung i-introduce siya ni Arum na "Takasan......errrr, whatsoever!" :rofl:

    Si Chavit..... WHATSOEVER! Bwa-ha-ha-ha! Hilig kasing pumapel.

    Bob Arum also introduced Chavit as Takajinx on 0:53 onwards.

    "Takasin... Takajinx... whatever!" Uncle Bob was being sarcastic lol.

    maybe the old man was just being superstitious...Chavit's presence carries with it a jinx to Pacman's fight...while he was introducing the team, perhaps the old man was just too scared that there's just one jinx in the team...wehehehe...buti nga sa kanya....

    Malaki kasi pusta ni Chavit.

    Super tutok siya kay Manny to make sure that
    hindi magkalaglagan sa pustahan and always
    on the "inside track" siya.

    Kung baga naniniguro lang sa kanyang "investment".
