UFC fighter Gray Maynard hit up Studio 54 inside MGM Grand last night to host an after-fight party following his rematch against Frankie Edgar at the MGM Grand Garden Arena. The highly anticipated UFC 125 fight ended in a draw, but Maynard (“The Bully”) had much to celebrate as he was joined by fellow fighters, friends and fans to party the night away at Vegas’ most legendary nightspot.

Fans swarmed outside Studio 54 in hopes to land a photo or autograph as Maynard hit the red carpet with fellow fighters from his Xtreme Couture fight team, Jay Hieron, Sean Spangler, Martin Kampmann, Tyson Griffin and coach Gil Martinez. Good friend and wakeboarding pro Rusty Malinoski also joined Maynard on the carpet. Despite his bruises and cuts, Maynard was decked out in fighters’ favorite Dethrone Royalty brand clothing and ready to party. He held up his fists in a fighter’s pose for cameras and his fans went wild.

Moving the party inside the famed nightclub, Maynard’s 30-person-deep entourage greeted him with cheers and congratulations at his exclusive VIP table overlooking Studio 54’s lively dance floor. Maynard took time settling in with friends as they each personally commended him on his hard-fought fight.

DJ Nick Steele had sexy partygoers below bouncing to the beats of his chart-topping hits. Songs like “We No Speak Americano” by Yolanda Be Cool &DCUP and “The Time” by The Black Eyed Peas kept Maynard and club-goers alike partying into the early morning.

Promoter Bob Arum was all a glow in the press room as he introduced Israeli figther Yuri Foreman, of Haifa, who is the new WBA Super Welterweight Champion. He defeated Daniel Santos of Puerto Rico tonight in the under-card fight. As a Jewish American himself, Arum was very proud of Israel producing it’s first boxing championship.

Arum then brought on Pacquiao who was bandaged from a procedure to drain blood from his ear. Pacquiao was in great spirits and even sang a chorus of ‘Sometimes When We Touch’ as a teaser for his concert later tonight at Mandalay Bay.

Cotto was ordered to UMC by the boxing commission as a safeguard. Cotto said he was feeling alright…just beat up, but nothing unusual.

December 7, 2008

Reporting from Las Vegas — The hype came to an end just after 8 p.m. Saturday when a smiling Manny Pacquiao, the best pound-for-pound boxer in the world, entered the ring at the MGM Grand Garden Arena to a thunderous ovation. Pacquiao, dressed in a robe in the red, white and blue of the Philippine flag, went directly to his corner, where he kneeled for several seconds in prayer.

He was followed into the ring by Oscar De La Hoya, the only man to win world titles in six weight classes.
