Dates: Nov 13th – 15th

Hotel: The world famous Bellagio

Reasons: Had to work the Pacquiao v Cotto fight alone.

Cost: $0. Company paid for everything

If you’ve been visiting this blog since last year, you would know this is the second time I’ve been to Vegas and certainly not the last with all the big boxing fights occurring there.

I went last year for a convention with my yoonew.com cohorts and now for my company. I was in charge of the Cotto v Pacquiao event. That means in terms of pricing, selling to clients, and meeting new ones in the Vegas area.

It was extremely busy, but I passed with flying colors and was also able to enjoy myself.

As you can see, the shower had two towels, one for me and the other for her. Lamar and Khloe came through for dinner later in the night.

The hotel had a great view and the service was impeccable. The King size bed with the down comforters felt like heaven.

In my time there, I was also able to meet Phil Ivey, Ne-Yo, Chris Gotti (Irv’s brother), some “adult” stars, ESPN persona Stan Verrett, and a host of others. Unfortunately, no cameras are allowed in the casino so no pictures. Sorry.

Anyways, most of my time was spent adjusting to the 3 hour time difference and running around meeting clients with tickets to the fight.

My homey Bryan who does PR for Diddy was out there too. Shouts to him for hitting me up to attend parties and stuff.

Once my work was done late Saturday, I went to the fight free of charge and had a great time. Pacquiao is amazing. After that, I went to the casino and hit up my favorite game, Blackjack, and won a good amount of money. I lost some of it the next day, but I managed to stay up for the trip.

Thanks to the company for sending me out there. I had a great time and the next event for me will probably be this…
