We began our journey Tuesday, February 20 in the city so nice, they named it twice, New York, New York! Now we conclude our 11 city tour in the city of angels, Los Angeles, California. Today's festivities took place at Mann's Chinese Theater in the heart of Hollywood. All the stars were out today, including a guy dressed in a full body Spiderman outfit. Thousands of people were also on hand to witness ‘The Doors’ get their own star on the Hollywood walk of fame.

Both fighters walked the red carpet as they entered the theater. Fans cheering and light bulbs flashing, all that was missing was Joan Rivers screaming, "Who are you wearing?"

Mayweather, still in full gear, brought a chicken wearing a gold medal to the stage. Floyd stared the chicken down as if it was De La Hoya.

De La Hoya spoke to his fans, signed autographs and was all smiles. After the press conference De La Hoya said, "It has been great traveling across the country seeing all my fans. I want to thank all of you for following the press tour and I look forward to putting on one of the best performances of my career May 5th."

What an incredible two weeks. Everyone is talking and on May 5th the world will be watching.
