it's nice when big events like this unite the Filipinos. and, yeah, i've heard about the so-called 13-days curse. Hmmmm....

March 14, 2010 at 9:29 PM comment-delete

galing ng double punch ni manny.....pati sya ay natawa sa kalokohan nya.
anyway, he took a lot of hard shots from both clottey and cotto. and the more he gets hit, the more he comes in. this shows that he can brawl with either mayweather or mosley. i only worry about the consequences of this on his brain's health later on.

History na naman ang nagawa ni Pacman ^_^

Kaso, like so many other viewers, hindi din ako masyadong nag-enjoy sa laban niya versus Clottey... puro depensa at salag lang ang ginawa ng boksingerong mula sa Ghana, Africa... mas marami pa ang punches na pinakawalan ni Pacman kesa sa kanya eh lols.

Mabuhay ka Manny!!!

@ Fiel : Pero mayabang pa rin si Clottey... Haha!

@ Jag : Paano ba naman, hindi naman talaga siya lumalaban... Sumasalag lang siya ng suntok ni Pacman!

@ Glentot : Naman!

@ Tim : Oo nga pala... Nuffnanger ka na...

@ Glenn Kunn : Salamats!

@ Arvin : Mukhang lalong lumabo ang pag-asa ng laban kay Mayweather... Kasi naman, lalong natakot si Mayweather kay Pacman!

March 17, 2010 at 1:34 AM comment-delete

Napanood ko laban. Cover nga ng cover si Clottey.

Medyo takot ma-open panga niya.

Can we exchange link?

March 17, 2010 at 8:22 PM comment-delete

I so thought that it will be a good fight. But I'm disappointed on how Clottey just aimed at not being KTOed by Manny.

@ Lucas : Boring talaga... Mas matagal pa nga ata ang laban ng mga commercials ng mga kandidato e!

@ Kaspangarigan : Sure... May link ka na sa akin... :)

@ MinnieRunner : Kahit sino naman madidisappoint 'dun e! Haha!

I am quite disappointed sa laban kasi kitang-kita na takot na takot si clottey. Walang masyadong aksyon. Parang binu-bully lang ni Pacman yung isa. Parang gumawa lang pareho ng pera hehe!

Sa bagay, he he he. Sabi nga nung isang boxing analyst, may award si Clottey sa Oscar's for being a very good human punching bag, LOL!

March 18, 2010 at 6:47 PM comment-delete

I am expecting a different fight. Nonetheless, I still knew that Pacman will win the fight. Congratulations!
