Manny Pacquiao had once again proved to the world that Filipinos are people worth reckoning with. He made history again by winning the match with his recent opponent Miguel Cotto who himself is a title holder of .. whatever. I am not actually a sports-minded person. I know nothing on the technical side of any sports, boxing all the more, but it gives me a great sense of pride everytime Manny Pacquiao wins a boxing match to whomever he is opposing with.
Manny's victory is the victory of all Pinoys. His fight is our fight, his loss would also be our loss. He is the string that pulls all Pinoys together, wherever we are..the whole archipelago stops whenever he has a fight. Regardless of the time differences, he could make all the Pinoys awake in any part of the world just to watch his fight and watch history unfolds.
Sabi nga ni MARK LAGULA on one of his FACEBOOK STATUS: There is ZERO crime rate in the Philippines pag may laban si MANNY. It seems that even the most heartless crooks in the Philippines (not that we are proud of them!) stop at their unlawful deeds when Manny is on the ring. (kasi daw money and Manny sounds the same din naman! hehehe).
Anyways, I could only hope that Manny, in all his blessed glory, would not forget his kababayans, especially those who were greatly affected by the calamities that recently brought the Philippines to a total KNOCK OUT too.
Para namn di lang si Mommy Dionisia ang happy.. di ba??? ;-)
