  1.  

    superfights are fairly easy to setup if both fighters are really willing.

     

    Leonard waited for Hagler to fade, in the typical PBF fashion.

     

    Ali vs. Frazier only took long because Ali was banned from competing in the US because he didn't want to fight in Vietnam, once the ban was lifted (with a little help from Frazier himself) it only took a couple of months to set it up (Ali was banned in '67 and the ban was lifted in '71, "Fight of the Century" was in '71) and they fought 3 times in the span of 5 years.

     

    Tyson vs. Holyfield was fairly easy to set up because both fighters were willing but circumstances had a different say, it didn't happen in 1990 because Douglas beat Tyson, and then Tyson was convicted in 92 and got released in 96 which was when the fight happened.

     

    Pac X Mayweather only got delayed because of excuses from both camps and politicking which was really bad for the sport.

     

    Pacquiao x Mayweather should have happened 5 years ago when they were both in their primes, and both were heavily talked about as the PFP best ever. Sure they can still fight but they're both not the same fighters they once were. Manny has lost some power and his killer instinct (he hasn't finished a fight since Cotto in 2009) and he hasn't been the same since the JMM KO. Mayweather has definitely lost a step, especially looking at that Maidana fight, where he just opted to take potshots, and clinch his way to a really boring decision victory.

     

    Who knows, it could have been strategic for both camps to wait it out this long, gate prices are astronomical now which I don't think it would have been 5 years ago. But a Pacman X Mayweather fight in 2010, that would have been the fight of the century.

     

    Of course its never as simple as 2 big names agreeing to fight. Before the legal problems, before the suffered defeats, it was egoes that got in the way of those fights and kept them from happening a lot sooner. Add to that greedy promoters and middlepeople messed up the negotiations. But those fights still did happen though these fighters were already a bit past their primes, and at least it happened at the time their names were still relevant to the sport. Unlike Jones Vs Hopkins 2. It happened at the time when both of them were no longer financial draws. Jones almost didn't earn anything from that fight.

     

    Yes excuses came from both camps. Its not always Mayweather's fault why the fight didn't happen sooner. First of all, at the time, Manny was more determined to win a congressional seat than to negotiate for this fight to happen. He was letting uncle Bob handle everything too much. Floyd wont just do business with Bob because he screwed him over. Floyd's hesitation was brought more about him wanting to dictate the business details of the fight. All he really wanted was one face to face meeting with his opponent to offer him a better proposition. And as we can see, after just 1 meeting, contracts were signed. What did they talk about? Who knows? But for sure it was a business strategy, of course Floyd would not disclose it beforehand in the interviews.

     

    I really do not think Floyd would duck Manny because he is afraid of losing to him. See, the thing about Pacquiao is that, indeed Roach improved his game, but as an offensive onslaught fighter. He developed his right hand, gave him better footwork, improved his side to side movements, rotations, etc.... but he still fights the way he does. Against opposition that also loves to fight fire with fire, Pacquiao looked immaculate. But when he faced Marquez for the third time, we saw that his problem with precision fighters was not really solved. And Mayweather is bigger, faster, and smarter than Marquez. Floyd can beat him, and Floyd knows this.

  2. All men should know how to do house chores. Its a basic skill we all should learn. Its not about being appealing to the ladies, its about learning how to properly take care of yourself. Because if you dont its gonna affect the way you present yourself with other people. And besides, learning how to properly take care of yourself is confidence booster. Think about it.

     

    If you do not learn how to do grocery and cook healthy meals, you will feed on junkfood and grow a belly.

    If you do not know how to properly do laundry, and manage your clothes, magmumukha kang basahan lagi

    If you do not clean your place, it will somehow affect your hygiene, syempre mangangamoy balat mo at damit mo.

     

    In my case I need to take care of myself lalo ngayong winter. Di naman uso ang katulong dito. Tsaka learning to take care of yourself is an effective way to beat depression

  3. Wow, thanks for confirming that in the interview, no rematch, except if Floyd loses.... hmmm, if I were a conspiracy Theorist..... baka naman matalo si Floyd! :)

     

    Regarding the discussions on skills and different styles, yun na nga, ang takot ko kay Manny, byera siya nang 4 to 5 combi tapos pag huminto, bibigyan ni Floyd! Sana yun ang pagisipan nang kampo ni Manny.

     

    Isa pa, if Manny is going to be doing his tornado style fighting on Floyd and if Floyd isn't hitting him after those combis, the question is how long will Manny be able to sustain it. Kaya again, my question, is 3 months training enough? Did his Basketball training help with his endurance? :)

     

    I wonder, I'm not a boxer kasi, if Floyd uses his Deltoids as a shield, wonder if Manny should be hitting it on purpose? :)

     

    Its not just really about shielding the punch with the deltoid. Ang shoulderroll ginagamit talaga yan to deflect the punches and protect the chin. Pansinin mo pag nasusuntok na sa may balikat, biglat pipihit o iikot bewang, minsan iaangat pa siko para daplis na lang halos tama ng suntok. You gotta have quick reflexes and good thinking to pull it off. Moreover, his ribcage is also protected dahil natatakpan ng forearms.

     

    There is no point to keep targetting this area if you ask me. Hindi naman sya pupuntos ng maganda dun, at macounter pa sya sa katawan. There is no point attacking your opponent at his strongest spot, you attack him at his weakest. Lets hope na Manny still has that timing going, na tipong pagpihit kaya nga tamaan sa ulo

  4. Met this Thera, who was rather intelligent and is graduating from her course, she got into the trade to put her sister through school as well as herself. She related to me her experience with a guest who got "obsessed" with her and made posts on FB about her for all and sundry to see. She was thankfully able to limit the damage, but she was quite upset. She says that there are times she goes home feeling "laspag" and cries through the night while reviewing for class the next day. She says she has turned down propositions to "house" her since she would rather be independent but miserable than being in a gilded cage. Interesting.

     

    Tama yun. Its a smart decision if you will ask me. Kasi ganun ka pa din naman pag binahay ka eh. Pagaari ka na ng iba. Ano kakalabasan mo? Kabit? Eh kung maeskandalo ka pa ng pamilya nung lalake, for sure talo ka. Isa pa, what if the guy turns out to be an abusive jerk? Tsaka papano ka kakalas ngayon kung napakalaki ng utang na loob mo dun sa lalake. Tama nga naman, magiging pagaari at alipin ka lang. Eh di mas mabuti pa na ikaw na lang mismo pagsumikapan mo na maialis sarili mo dyan, that way makakaumpisa ka ng bagong buhay on your own terms. Ng hindi mo kinakailangan isipin utang mo sa prince charming mo sana. This is why I don't support the idea na lalake dapat maglabas sa babae sa ganitong hanapbuhay. Its a romantic idea that works best on a screenplay, but it will not really give you that much freedom. You are just trading shackles

     

     

    Yup, madaming ganyan and we shouldn't judge them for their choice of profession, Madaming factors at iba ibang dahilan ang nagtulak sa kanila para pumasok sa ganyang industria. The trouble is, the kind of experience they go through can have a huge emotional toll on them and it takes a special kind of understanding and patience to be able to have a succesful relationship with them. Hindi lang yan pera pera, on the other hand hindi rin enough ang love.

     

    Eto sana bukas isip ng magbabasa. Para kasi sakin, kahit ano pa dahilan, problema o hinaharap, pwede kang mabuhay ng parehas kung talagang gugustuhin mo. Di mo naman kelangan ibenta sarili mo at isakripisyo yung dignidad mo. I knew this single mom who works almost 3 to 4 jobs to make both ends meet pwera pa sidelines. Diskarte lang talaga at sakripisyo. Halos 3 hours na lang tinutulog nung tao. May itsura naman sya and her friends invited her to try escorting kahit mga ilang labas lang, pero talagang ayaw nya. Kaming mga kaibigan nya, lagi kami tumutulong naman sa pangangailangan nya. Kahit di na nga binabayaran ok lang. Ayun napagtapos naman sarili nya.

     

    Sometimes, no not sometimes. Always! The problem of the industry, are lonely and defeated men. Lonely and defeated in a way that they can't do the "Messiah complex" thing they do for theras with mature, independent, and financially capable women.

     

    That is why, you should never go to these places to deal with whatever issues you have. You should never be with this women if you feel emotionally vulnerable. Makikita natin sa mga thread, ang advice ng mga GM pag brokenhearted, pumunta sa mga ganitong lugar para magparaos. IMO, this is the worst advice you can give a guy na depressed kasi nga emotionally vulnerable sila. Lets forget for one second na kasama sa trabaho nila mangbola, lets forget the reality that some are really hustlers. Lets say OK mabait yung babae. Pero what happens when she can't make the guy emotionally secure sa nature ng trabaho nya? O di panibagong cycle nanaman ng depression na mas malalala? And what does it solve? Wala

     

    Sex is something you should enjoy when you have that manly confidence di ba?

     

    Kaya nga yung isang katropa, simple lang ang rule nya. Never ever hire the same attendant twice. He does not even bother getting their number.

  5. well this fight is 5 years too late, but I'll take it.

     

    anyway I'm rooting for Manny, but to be honest I really can't say who wins this, it's too close to call for me.

     

    like in any other combat sport (MMA, Muay Thai, etc.) styles make fights, and their styles are just the extreme opposites of the other. they're at opposite ends of the spectrum, which to me makes this fight very interesting.

     

     

    Floyd is an excellent technical boxer, so technical that he can win fights while taking the least amount of damage. Handspeed, head movement and footwork are way above average, plus his patented shoulder defense, makes him a very hard guy to hit. He's a great counterpuncher, his timing, exceptional. But he's lost a step, as evidenced by his last fight, and the two maidana fights where he struggled to put him away and actually got hit. He's still great though.

     

     

    Manny on the other hand is a huge volume puncher, in the Algieri fight he landed 229 of 669 punches with 187 of 410 power punches, that's an insane amount that previous opponents have succumbed to, it's not unusual for Manny to throw 5 - 6 punch combos. Manny also has devastating hand speed and throws punches at weird angles leaving his opponents wondering where the next will come from. His biggest weakness is his bull-headedness that leaves him open to the right counterpunch opportunity, something JMM took advantage of and left him in a blubbering mess on the canvas. He's also lost a step or two though, if you compare Manny post JMM knockout, he seems more tentative and slow to step on the gas, the Manny that retired De la Hoya, was a hurricane of fists and power that was unstoppable.

     

    Floyd has had a lot of trouble with fast volume punchers, as evidenced by the Zab Judah fight (If Judah didn't gas I still believe he could have taken PBF out) he has trouble with pressure, if Manny can keep up the intensity and protect himself intelligently (Floyd doesn't have knockout power anymore, his hands are too mangled that he can't hit hard enough for a KO), I can see Floyd clamming up, take his potshots here and there, and ride his bicycle for a UD victory. Some people say PBF can knock him out because JMM, who has a similiar counterpunching style, knocked Manny out. But what people forget, PBF isn't JMM. JMM is willing to take shots to get one, PBF won't, he doesn't like getting hit.

     

    But still I don't know who wins it, that's why I'm excited for this. On May 2nd we'll see if defense beats offense, or offense can break down boxing's best defense.

     

     

    A fight of this magnitude takes time to setup. Come to think of it, fights like Tyson Vs Holyfield, Leonard Vs Hagler, Ali Vs Frazier took years to finally happen. When it did happen, many of these fighters were a bit past their peak prime already. Look at it this way, we wanted an Arnold and Sly teamup back in the early 90s but at the time they were just 2 very big stars. Not that Pacquiao or Mayweather are not at the top of the sport anymore. They are still relevant and surely they can still fight. At least hindi ito yung kagaya ng Hopkins Vs Jones 2. Sana talaga nangyari yung laban nung silang dalawa nagaagawan sa top P4P ranking.

     

    As for the fight itself, OO magaling umikot si Manny, nga lang pag sya napapaatras di nya na alam gagawin nya

  6. Nobody is shoving anything on anyones throat, sa huli buhay nila yan at gagawin nila gusto nila. Nasa kabilang kanto ba kami para pigilan sila sa gusto nilang gawin?

     

    As far as the thread is concerned, they offered themselves and their story to the table. So naturally someone will wanna dissect it. Alangan naman puros validation lang ibigay di ba?

     

    If you walk in this thread and offer your own issues, learn to swallow both the good and the bad. At hindi yung parang bata na magmamaktol pag di nakukuha reaction na gusto.

  7. Not advisable, but how do you stop the law of attraction from happening? Some students can be a tease, and it's super easy for young single teachers to jump into these relationships.

     

    When I was still teaching (I was 24-25 at that time), I really projected myself as a terror prof sa umpisa. Strikto and someone to be taken really seriously. Pag bata ka kasi, yung mga estudyante mo susubukan maging presko at aamu-amuin ka talaga. Tapos di ka na nyan nila susundin at mawawalan ka ng control sa classroom mo.

     

    Isa pa, nung mga panahon na yun mainit na mainit mga kaso ng sexual harassment. Alam mo na, mahawakan mo lang ng mali yung bata, nagkakaroon na ng ibang interpretation. And yes, meron kasing mga dalagita na gusto ng mas mature. Kaya it helps kung umpisa pa lang sa kanila drill instructor sa marines ang approach mo. lol.

  8. Just happened to me. Ended a three month relationship. Not worth it in all aspect, money, time and the destruction of yourself. I may have the good intention of pulling her out from the mud but it was me who went to their level. They have the skill, experience, reasoning to play the game everyday to every clients. You can't win. If I were you, better get out early and don't wait for negative sign. It's going to be harder but the end result will still be the same.

     

    I had one friend back in the days who had a very simple policy when it comes to going into these places. That is to never hire the same attendant twice. Tama nga naman, and its very smart if you ask me

  9.  

    para sakin ba to,kung sakin? I never assumed na iba level naming dalawa plus I dont consider na this is game where someone will or lose. Ive played the game on my early and mid 20s. I try to approach this with maturity and put everything in consideration. Maraming cons masasabi sa kanya but im not a saint myself. I have work to an industry that could understand her occupation. so its not much of a big deal.

    sure lol.

     

    Dude, if this is your way of thinking you are not dealing with your issue maturely. What you are trying to do is romanticize everything. Ganito yan ha

     

    Una, having feelings and pursuing a relationship are two very different things. Just because you have feelings for her, it does not mean you should pursue her. Because it requires a lot of practicality to make a healthy relationship work. Di lang yan puro kilig at lib0g.

     

    Second, you do not need to be in her industry to understand her situation. This is rubbish. Its like saying kelangan mo maging adik din muna para maintindihan mo na masama sa katawan at pagiisip ang droga. A lot of people come to this thread overanalyzing the situation, romanticizing every trivial detail, when its just plain good old common sense.

     

    OK sayo na yung babaeng gusto mo mahalin hinahawakan ng ibang lalake? Comfortable ka sa idea na yan? Isa pa, hindi ba hindi naman yan patas sayo? Don't even get started with the "Babae din naman sila na may karapatan mahalin" BS na paboritong linya dito. Ang pagmamahal ilalagay yan sa tamang lugar.

  10. Tax exemption daw para sa kikitain ni Pacquiao sa laban na ito. Talagang dura ito sa pagmumukha ng mga maraming pilipino na halos wala ng kitain sa laki ng kinakaltas. Tapos si Pacquiao na napakayaman at yayaman pa lalo kelangan di na magbayad ng buwis? Bakit? Aangat ba ekonomiya ng Pilipinas dahil sa laban na ito? Bababa ba ang unemployment rates? Mawawala na ba katiwalian sa Gobyerno? Hay Sen. Pimintel, hindi rin halata na sumisipsip ka sa taong ito para ikampanya ka. Imbes matitinong batas ipasa, nagkaron ka pa ng oras isipin ito.

     

    And again for the actual fight itself, I have to root for the guy who I think is more skilled. Wouldn't we all love for Floyd to be put on his place? Pero this is not an FPJ movie, this is a sport. The better competitor wins and it is what it is. Given all the premises I laid down, I just don't see how Pacquiao will beat him or KO him even more.

  11. limit niyo sa 1,200 cal or 1,500 cal per day. guaranteed weight loss of 2-3 lbs a week

     

    Hmmmm if you ask me this is not a good idea.

     

    With that amount of calorie (lalo kung lalake), hihina ka naman ng sobra. Di rin maganda na masyadong mabilis yung pagbaba mo ng timbang, unless you are morbidly obese or nasa reality show ka. At that rate, lagi kang mahihilo naman nyan. Isa pa, this is one sure way to make you feel deprived, and once burnt out ka na, kakain ka lang ulit ng madami.

     

    Ang turo sakin, kelangan talaga patience dito. It took years of bad habits that accumulated your weight, so it will also take some time to lose it. Lose it slow, so your body properly adapts to it and you don't risk health complications. If di ka naman athlete o celebrity, you should have plenty of time.

     

    If tama na yung kaha ng katawan mo, minsan ok din na you stay in that weight. The Idea is to lose fat and gain muscle naman in the first place.

     

    CHOOSE what you eat. Its not so much about LESSENING it. Starving yourself will only make you give up on any diet program you choose. Learning how to shop and prep your own meals can also be helpful. Read the nutrition label of any prepared food you purchase.

     

    Diet is not about eating less, its about eating right. Si pacquiao nga isang bandehadong kanin inuubos sa isang kainan pag on training sya. Eat more of the foods that help you gain muscle and burn fat. That way you don't feel hungry and deprived.

  12. dapat within 6 round mapatumba ni pacman si gayweather kundi baka matalo tayo.

     

    style ni gayweather takbo banat takbo banat.

     

    dapat habang maaga habulin ni pacman at pulbusin na agad baka maka tsamba. at syempre ito pa ang kailangan. ang SIKRET WIPON!!!!!!

     

    Clearly Sir, you do not really watch Floyd's fight, nor do you know much about boxing. Kung ganyan ang style ni Mayweather, hindi sya aabot ng 47-0. Tandaan mo, ayaw na ayaw ng mga judges ng ganyan. Kaya natalo si Dela Hoya noon kay Trinidad kasi yan ginawa kaya natalo sa decision. Sa lahat ng decision na naipanalo ni Floyd, isang beses pa lang sya natalo sa scorecard. Dalawang beses lang tumabla.

     

    Pangalawa, hindi naman tama yung anatomy nya para sa ganyan style. Ang mga pwede dito, yung mga matatangkad at mahabang kamay tulad ni Wladimir Klitschko at syempre ni Muhammad Ali na puros Jab at gamit ang footwork para di maabot ng kalaban. Outside figthing ang tawag sa sinasabi mo. Hindi outside fighters ang mga counterpuncher.

     

    Ang style ni Floyd, aantayin ka nya pumasok, ifru-frustrate ka nya. Kahit anong lapit ng distansya di mo matatamaan kasi matindi reflexes nya. Tapos counter, at hahabulin ka ng banat pag napapaatras ka na na. Yan ang problema ni Manny, di nya na alam gagawin nya pag napapaatras na. At minsan nangigigil din sya. Sina Hatton, Ortiz, Maidana, lahat nainis dahil hindi matamaan ng suntok si Floyd kaya nagumpisa na magkamali mali on the later rounds.

     

    Dyan mo maapreciate ang laro ng boxing, hindi yan puro aggression at sugod ng sugod. Utakan din yan.

  13. I dont know I have to get to know her more to answer that but meron something talaga inbetween like to love ish but leaning towards to love more and I want to know her even more. but that the plot twist is a really nutty case that i have to handle asap

     

    Tol yang sinasabi mong "love ish" na sinasabi mo may tawag dyan. "Infatuation". That is entirely different from love. Kasi you can love people you are not really infatuated with. The problem comes when you try to interpret it more than what it is. Papano mo masasabi na love yan ni hindi mo naman pala kilala pa ng lubusan yung tao di ba? Isa pa, the mere fact you got too much complications going on means one thing, you are not ready to pursue a healthy relationship.

  14. win or lose pacquiao is still the better man ^_^

     

     

    Agree! B)

     

     

    Better man in what sense? Hindi naman natin personally kilala si Manny o si Floyd ng personal di ba? We only know them as far as they are portrayed in media. Floyd being the trash talking punk from the ghetto, and Manny the peoples champ. Its easy to see that Manny here is the hero and Floyd the villain but that don't necessarily reflect how they are exactly in real life.

     

    Come to think of it, Manny did use drugs, is a gambler, and a womanizer. Ngayon he is acting like a typical trapo. Di na nga sineseryoso trabaho sa congresso, nagtatayo pa ng political dynasty nya. I mean sure he has redeeming traits, but I don't believe he is the saint our media portrays him to be. Anymore than I believe Floyd is an arrogant douchebag in real life. Active din nga daw ito si Money sa civic work pero di naman nagmamakaawa sa press na magsulat tungkol dito.

     

    Remember, George Foreman was the inspiration for Clubber Lang. Inside the sport he was the Mike Tyson of his generation. But in fact he is a preacher.

     

    But anyway, simple lang naman eto eh, the better athlete deserves to win. The one that has better skills and honed his craft better over years of fighting. Masasabi ko, si Floyd ito. At least kasi sya, boxing lang pinagkaabalahan. Si Manny ang daming vanity project. Pati pagiging congressman nya binabastos nya lang. Inaabuso celebrity status nya.

  15. Pano pag sila na ang in love sayo kasi recently lang nangyare but pag pumupunta kasi ako dun sya lang talaga kinukuha ko and hinde na ko kumukuha ng mga sikat dun kahit uber ganda ng fr sa kanila but last time during heated coital which we are both enjoying she said she likes me then i said i like her too after nun after we continue copulating then she said she loves me and then I said I love her too. She didnt charge me and now I have a girlfriend. but I have an interesting plot twist that I couldnt share and rather keep to myself......

     

    Ang tanong, kaya mo ba sya panindigan? Kaya mo ba sya pakilala sa pamilya mo? sa mga kaibigan etc? If you just intend to keep her as your dirty little secret, then mas mabuting putulin mo na yan. Isa pa, are you sure in love nga kayo o dala lang yan ng sarap ng sex?

  16. Here are some factors/circumstances/elements Manny could use to try to beat Floyd:

     

    1. Mayweather has been hit hard lately: Although his defensive reflexes have always been phenomenal, Mayweather was hit hard a few times by Marcos Maidana in their two fights (and by Miguel Cotto and Shane Mosley in recent years). Maidana 'probably' has more power than Pacquiao, but Pacquiao, with his better boxing skills, will put himself into position to hit Mayweather more often than Maidana could. And while Mayweather’s chin has never failed him before, a solid punch by Pacquiao will test him. A lot of Manny's punches might not land, but the ones that do, will certainly hurt Floyd.

     

    True, this is Manny's best chance, capitalize on some of Floyd's wear and tear. But then again Floyd is the master of adjustments, can Pacquiaos tazmanian devil approach neutralize this? we'll see

     

     

    2. Pacquiao is the underdog and considered the B fighter here: Mayweather reportedly is receiving 60 percent of the purse, and it’s seemed all along that Mayweather was ultimately the man in charge why this fight actually will eventually happen. Pacquiao has plenty of power in the sport’s political arena, but it’s dwarfed by Mayweather’s shining star. So, Pacquiao has had to acquiesce to Mayweather, and when the two get into the ring, Pacquiao will have a greater motivation to get the chance to make Mayweather pay for it.

     

    Lets hope hindi naman sya magbulakbol sobra sa training. See, nun pang kay Cotto, panay na sya bulakbol sa training. Imbes sa wild card gym sa los angeles na walang distractions, sa baguo na lang para maaccomodate commitments nya sa pilipinas. Syempre umpisa di pa magkakaroon ng effect yan. Pero yung paulit ulit na pagpupuyat, pagaatupag ng mga bagay outside boxing na nakakasira ng kundisyon nya, lahat yan eventually magpile up at aapekto sa kanya. Worst training camp siguro yung kay Margarito, at lalong lalo na yung part 4 kay Marquez. Sa 24/7 pa lang kitang parang hindi sineryoso ni Manny training nya.

     

     

    3. Manny may have learned his lesson/s with the Marquez debacle: Pacquiao could potentially run into a Mayweather counter, but being a southpaw it would be a nightmare for Floyd to get inside, retrieve, target and release. And Pacquiao has become more versatile heading inside the body, something he quickly learned against Marquez. Coach Freddie may have devised a plan to counter a counterpuncher.Many would say "you can't teach an old dog new tricks". But great motivation and focus would, as Marquez did when he tediously plan for their 4th encounter

     

     

    Here is my theory. At a certain stage in a boxer's career, you can only improve his style but not overhaul it completely. Case in point. Hatton wanted to be a more defensive fighter, so he hired Floyd Sr. However when the bell rang, he still fought the best way he knew how. Like a bulldozer, attack attack attack, smother the opponent, pound the body, and not protect your own chin. Before roach, Manny was already a volume puncher/slugger. Roach gave him better footwork, stronger right hand, head movement, but he still fights the way he does. What improvement can be made to neutralize Floyd's superior counterpunching ability and awesome defense?

     

     

    4. Manny prays a lot harder than Floyd. Many may laugh at this 'logic', but hey don't underestimate what prayers can do. Now another reason why people think Pacquiao has wined-down his typhoon like knockouts on the ring is based on the assumption that he took enhancement drugs otherwise known as PED’s. Let clarify something, he has never tested positive for any PED’s under any regulatory commission. The truth is, he did become a calmer fighter when he became a Christian. As even Freddy Roach, asked him to ‘get back his killer instinct’ which vanished after Pacquiao started his conversion to Christianity. We can at least all agree, Pacquiao experienced a spiritual transformation right at the same time when he also stopped chowing people on the ring a few years back. .

     

     

    Well in his prime Foreman was one fierce heavyweight. He was even the inspiration for Clubber Lang. But outside the ring he was a preacher. Nonetheless hindi killer instinct makakapanalo dito kundi more of a good tactical plan.

     

     

    5. But lets talk science. According to an article published by Max Kellerman on ESPN a few years back, it quotes, “ CompuBox showed Castillo throwing and landing many more punches and powerpunches than Floyd. At the end of the night Mayweather had indeed been hit more than Castillo.” I guess the opinion of Floyd fans is more scientific than Compubox, also used in Princeton for technical research. But Floyd fans need not to panic because the judges gave the decision to Floyd, they skipped the science part. If Castillo posed that great of a threat to young Floyd, would you agree that fighting Pacquiao would be more problematic specially considering Floyd is older? However, the young Castillo could indeed be better than Pacquiao 2.0.

     

     

    Watching JLC fight, puro naman kasi fouls ang nakapalamang kay Floyd dun. Nonetheless, in the second fight he effectively adjusted and dismantled him.

     

     

    Personally, I would want Manny to win simply because he's our kababayan...Actually, my mind says it's gonna be Floyd, but my heart hopes it would be Manny...

     

     

    Yeah I share the same senitment. At the end of the day, the athlete who has better skills will win. Forget who is the hero and the villain.

  17. Mayweather Udecision .. power goes to pacquiao for sure and speed wise mayweather got this dept.. question is: aanhin ang solid/powerful na suntok kung hindi naman tatamaan ang kalaban, kung tamaan man di ganon kasolid but who knows baka makatsamba si manny.. unless di pa nagsisimula ang laban e nakaset na to for a trilogy .. boxing mafia hmmmm

     

    Tumpak ka dyan parekoy! Yan ang pinakamahirap na challenge kay Pacquiao. Tatamaan nya ba kung pumasok sya sa guard ni Mayweather? Si Marquez kahit papano mabagal kaya natatamaan. Si Mayweather ni hindi kelangan sumangga, kasi ang bilis ng reflexes ng gago. Ang dami nya ng nakalaban na volume punchers pero talagang magaling depensa nya. Pinakaastig na mayweather move para sakin, yung sasandal sa lubid, hahayaan sumuntok ng madami kalaban, tapos lahat either daplis o mintis lang. Bale yung baba naaktuck ng maayos sa deltoid, kanang glove naka takip sa panga, tapus pihit ng bewang at balikat.

     

    Katawa nga mga boxing analyst natin, halatang nagpapakapactard lang. Ewan ko kung ano pinagsasasabi. Na kesyo tatakbo ng tatakbo si Mayweather daw, at di mananalo kung puro depensa lang. Hindi naman ganyan style ng counterpunchers. Ang gagawin nya, aabangan nya talaga si Manny at gagamitin nya sarili nitong momentum at aggression sa kanya. Parang ginawa kay hatton.

  18. Pre di naman kailangan na maliitin ang nga GM na nasa ganyang siteasyon.

     

    Napansin ko lang na parang may kinikimkim kang galit sa mga MPA ,gro, psp, at thera. Nabaated ka ba nila? O naloko? O baka may kaanak o kaibigan ka na ganun ang hanapbuhay? Kung magsalita ka kasi para kang expert sa ganitong relasyon. Ilan na ba ang naka relasyon mo na ganito hanapbuhay?

     

    Parang kalahati ng posts dito at sa kaparehong thread galing sa iyo eh. Obvious na binabantayan mo itong dalawamg threads.

     

    Share mo naman experience mo. Wag lang yung panglalait.

     

    Lol! Hindi ako galit sa kanila at lalong hindi ako nabasted. Dahil unang una, hindi naman ako gago na pupunta sa mga lugar na ganito para maghanap ng maliligawan at seryosong relasyon. Isa pa, hindi naman ako nagbabad lagi sa mga lugar na ito dahil may iba akong pinagkakaabalahan sa buhay ko, hindi ako mayaman, at kahit marami akong pera di ko yun sasayangin sa bisyo. Huli sa lahat, sabi ko nga dapat ihiwalay ang personal sa trabaho. Bakit mo gagawin kumplikado buhay ng babae, kung pwedeng hayaan mo na lang na trabaho na lang dapat? Para patunayan sa sarili mo na matinik ka sa chicks? lol!

     

    Ang totoo nyan brad, naawa pa nga ko sa mga babaeng ito. Kasi pinaglalaruan sila ng mga hipokrito na akala mo kung sinong mga alpha male at KISA nila sa mga thread na ito. Pero kung ikwento naman maruruming detalye ng serbisyo nila sa kabilang thread, kung ibenta sa kapwa nila GM, parang sariwang karne lang ang mga babaeng ito.

     

    Siguro dun ako mas maiinis kung sakali. Sa mga hipokrito dito sa thread na ito na sobrang akala ginintuan ang puso nila at sila na pinakaperfect na gentleman, dahil ipagtatangol nila mga MP, GRO, PSP at kung ano ano pa.... pero..... antayin na lang natin posts nila sa mga kabilang thread lol.

     

    Sakin, respect the job na lang. The best way to do that is to not get too familiar. Kawawa naman yung babae kung magiging querida tapos maiiskandalo pa ng pamilya nung GM. Parang yung nangyari dito kelan lang

  19. Come on boys! Its the oldest profession, why don't you just look for single or less complicated girls. And don't mess with their source of living. L*bo* lang yan! You confuse lust from love. You should be spanked. Haha

     

    Tama ka po Maam. Kung tutuusin no brainer na dapat ito. Simple common sense lang talaga dapat kelangan. Huwag paghaluin ang trabaho at yung personal. Ang problema kasi yung iba may "understand from the heart" pa na nalalaman.

     

    Saying you understand from the heart is not necessarily reflective of strength in character. It could also mean your brain is not working anyway

  20. Yung last fight I 100% agree, iba talaga yung conditioning ni Marquez. Eh tingnan mo lang si Marquez, bato bato talaga compared to Manny. Parang yung isa 100% ready, yung isa parang may hangover pa! (I'm exaggerating of course).

     

    Edmund, yung celebration pag nananalo, we can't take that away, pero I agree naman na shouldn't be bragging na, I really have not personally seen what you were describing na nagyayabang sa internet, I guess yung mga yun deserves the nickname you call them Pinoytards! Yung hindi nalang magsaya na nanalo yung Pambansang Kamao, eh mang iingit, mang susolsol pa? parang batang, nye,nye, nye nye talo kayo panalo kami!? Parang sila yung lumaban sa ring?

     

    Anyways lets not talk about celebrations yet, until matapos yung laban, but we are celebrating na MAY Laban na at last :)

     

    I hope that the outcome of this fight, as I said is "decisive", wag naman sanang Draw!

     

    Marquez deserved to win that fight. His victory was good for the sport. If you do not agree then you are surely not a fight fan. I am saying this because it was indeed an injustice that he was never awarded the victory he deserved in the second or third outing man lang. Its also inspiring that for his age, he really got to improve on his game. Talagang nagfocus yung tao, samantalang si Pacquiao, bulakbol sa training. Sa Gensan pa nagtraining kung saan ang dami distractions.

     

    Nakakaasar kasi mga gaya ni Chino Trinidad na certified pactard. Wala naman kaalam alam sa boxing yung tao. Alam ko basketball naman talaga forte nya. Kesyo, nagaapak daw ng paa si Marquez, eh kita nga sa mga replay kahit naman si Pacquiao naapakan din paa ni Marquez. Kesyo lucky punch daw, samantalang kahit ilang beses mo panoorin replay, halatang sa mitts pa lang inaral nila yung suntok na yun, kaya came fighgt night relfexes na lang talaga gumana. At higit pa dun, baka daw on PED si Marquez. This guy is really has no business being a commentator on boxing. Kahit yung mga di laban ni Pacquiao, alam mong walang alam sa mga pinagsasabi.

     

    Tapos yung mga pinoy naman, tignan mo kung pano magaastang kala mo kung sinong siga sa mga keyboard nila. Tignan mo sa youtube o sa kahit na anong social media. Pag panalo si pacquiao ang lakas mangasar sa mga mexicano. Gawan ng gawa ng kung ano anong meme. Pero nung si Pacquiao naman ginawan ng meme, "waaaaaaah you are racist, why did you insult our country waaaaaaah".

  21. I always do 30 mins cardio before moving to anything inside the gym

     

    Yeah I tried this noon, kaso nagiging problem sakin is that nawawalan ako ng energy for the lift. So what I did is that hinati ko. 15 mins before lift, 15 mins after, and sarap ng burn pagkatapos

  22. Ano bang katarantaduhan nanaman na sisipain yung import dahil sa ininsulto si Manny? Grabe naman ang indulgence ng buong pilipinas kay Pacquiao, halos gawin ng dyos. OO magaling sa boxing yung tao, pero kelangan ba sabihin na magaling din sya sa lahat ng bagay na gusto nya subukan? Bakit ba di pwede sabihin na sintunado sya kumanta, na di sya marunong umarte, at para lang syang tanga sa basketball? Alam naman ng lahat na vanity project nanaman ito ni Pacquiao.

     

    Isa pa, yung g@gong nagsabing parang si Martin Luther King si manny, dapat barilin sa bayag at kapunin ng hindi dumami ang bobong kagaya nito. Si Martin Luther King, nakipaglaban para sa karapatan ng african americans. Ano naman pinaglaban ni Manny? Ang bayan? Sigurado kayo? eh bakit lalaban ba si Pacquiao ng libre? Lol

  23. I don't think Marquez was robbed three times but during the third fight, I think he was definitely robbed. Marquez seemed to land more punches in their third fight. The problem with Manny was during the third fight he wanted to make it a brawl but Marquez wanted none of it. Marquez's counterpunching kept Pacquiao at bay in that fight. Pacman has the speed to rout Dinamita but he forced the issue in the third fight. If he just continued to stick with his side to side movement and hit Dinamita at angles, Marquez would not have had a chance.

     

     

    First fight sige, si Pacquiao dapat panalo dun kasi mali lang score nung isang judge. Majority decision sana

     

    Second Fight, bukod sa isang KD credit kay Pacquiao at yung sumunod na round na di pa fully recovered tuhod ni Marquez, lahat naman halos ng round talo sya. Panalo dapat dito si Marquez

     

    Third Fight, dito talaga shattered yung invincibility myth ni Pacquiao. Akala natin lahat malaki yung improvement nya after Dela Hoya. Yun pala di pa din nasolve yung problema nya against counterpunchers. Mas nakalaban dito si Manny, pero halatang out of composure sya dito.

     

    Fourth Fight, I gotta give props to Marquez for delivering what he promised. He was so determined to KO pacquiao, he trained nearly half a year for the fight. When he marched on to that ring, Marquez looked like a beast
