Manny Pacquiao VS Joshua Clottey


The Fight is Happening today(March 13) at the Cowboy Dallas Stadium in Arlington, Texas. Originally the fight was supposed to be Pacquiao vs Mayweather...but the negotiation fail and never really materialized.

Manny Pacquiao is know for his combination punches and wicked speed while Joshua Clottey is Known for his rock solid defense and Iron Chin.

You can watch the fight on HBO PPV at 9pm ET.

I think the fight is going be very wildly nerve wracking and entertaining. I think Pacquiao will win this but will have a very hard time. But we never know coz Clottey said he'll surprise and shock the world plus he's like a rock...lol..it'll probably end in a Decision.

Who do you think will win?

Philippine Danciing Inmates - Michael Jackson's "This is it"

The inmates from the Philippines has a new dance choreo...cool
The song they use "They don't care about us" is actually my 2nd mj favorite song...and that song really fits the prison vibe thing...they even have a prison version of the video release back then.
Check out the shoes...theyre all wearing fresh classic converses...
and that shirt is cool too.
It gives me goosebumps just to see them dance so synchronize.
They make History with this..hehe
I dont usually say stuff like this but if MJ was alive, he'll be proud of this...they've been dancing to Mj's music even before he died.

Manny Pacquiao, "The People's Champ"



Manny Pacquiao from Philippines is considered by many as the greatest of all time. 7 different world class weight divisions titles is pure insane. I watched the last match(i think everyone did...lol) against Cotto and I thought was crazy...I was never a big fan of boxing, but for the first time I was on the edge of the seat watching the sport...I really was on the edge of the couch of my friends hauz and thought it was comftable...hehe..rooting for pacquiao win or lose no matter what...lol
Pacquiao is so quick, agressive, and smart on the ring. I could just imagine the months of training and tactics they put together before that match and same for his opponent.  But of course the better fighter wins. Also he's working with one of the best trainer Freddy roach his sensei..

Couple of years back I thought boxing was going down, and it was time for mixed martial arts. But from my point of view, manny pacquiao had made a big contribution today in bringing the competitive sport back...i mean im not that deep into the boxing or anything as I said, and to me It just shows how much heart he is showing through his competiveness, calmness, humbleness...etc all the ness..lol
I'll be watching clips on youtube of him to see some of the other fights. I think the last one with cotto take so much out of him but then again right after he supposedly booked a concert to sing eight songs.
That was insane, I want to do sumthin like that...haha

also I found this clip about two weeks ago him singing on Jimmy kimmel show
"Sometimes when we Touch"
I guess all that singing brings lots of energy and calmness in preparing for his fights...hehe

Prayers for the Victims of Typhoon Ondoy




Typhhon Ondoy flooded the entire city in Philippines...(Metro Manila)..and may other deep places in the country.
I don't really keep up as much with the Latest news in the Philippines but when I heard the news from my dad, I actually tuned in to the Filipino Stations on tv to see what's goin on. It was really shocking what happened there. I heard that it was a lot stronger than that Hurricane Katrina. This happened like 5 or 6 days ago...and I heard that a new typhoon is about to hit again in a few days.
I used to lived in Valenzuela city in Manila, I wonder how the situation is over there.
As far as I know, Philippines is somewhat accustomed to big storms, but I think this has to be the biggest one and the worst in the history of the country.
They're not even close to moving on from the damage left by Ondoy and they're about to get hit by another one.

My prayers to all the victims.

Former President Corazon C. Aquino Dies, (January 25, 1933 – August 1, 2009)


She was the president of the Philippines from 1986 - 1992. The 11th president of the the country and asia's first female president. She was installed as the next leader by the peaceful 1986 "People Power Revolution".
She was held as "woman of the year" by the TIME magazine in 1987.
It was a Very sad news today in the philippines.
Cory Aquino Died at the age of 76 from a cardio respiratory arrest.
Found out the news through my dad who's almost always updated with the news in Philippines.
She is one of the biggest influence and had impacted not just the homeland but the World as well and shaped History during her time.
I don't remember much back then since I was little at the time she was a president and all the political activities that was going on in Philippines. I do remember my parents and relatives getting involved though. I remember seeing the picture where my sister was carrying me on her shoulders during the edsa revolution. I don't have the picture since it's in the Philippines. I was a year old and a couple months or something..(I was walking already..lol).
And as time pass by, I learned more about the history and its importance.

Prayers and many thanks to "CORY"
Salamat.
