I have said before... Manny has the RIGHT to venture into whatever Political position. Pero sana AFTER na ng boxing career niya....

Yan, tuloy... last fight na raw ni Manny yung kay Cotto.

 

 

I already miss Manny's fighting days! Lol. Sana retirement nya, parang yung kay Gayweather lang. On-call kung meron ng worthy challenger. Medyo immaterial na naman ngayon yung mga belts and titles. But Manny must go for the 6th -- para world record! :thumbsupsmiley:

Atienza for President? If Pacman has his way

Updated June 24, 2009 12:00 AM

 

 

MANILA, Philippines - Manny Pacquiao is pushing Environment Secretary Lito Atienza to run for President in the 2010 elections.

 

The boxing icon who’s also running for Congress in Saranggani Province said Monday evening that if he could have his way he’d like to see the former mayor of Manila and now Secretary of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources to become the next President.

 

He said Atienza’s accomplishments even when he was still Manila mayor speaks well of him.

 

“If you’d ask me who should sit as our next President, I should say it’s Lito Atienza. He’s pro-people, pro-country, pro-natural resources and pro-God,” said Pacquiao after gracing the inauguration of the Manila Grand Opera Hotel Casino in Manila.

 

“We all saw how he beautified the city of Manila. He lighted it up and developed the city. He gave away scholarships to the poor. I think he deserves to sit as our next President,” said Pacquiao.

 

But that’s if Atienza would run against those who have signified their intentions, including former President Joseph Estrada, Senators Loren Legarda, Manny Villar, Mar Roxas, Chiz Escudero and Richard Gordon, MMDA chairman Bayani Fernando, Makati Mayor Jojo Binay, Defense Secretary Gilbert Teodoro.

 

“If you’d ask me, Secretary Atienza should be our next president. But it’s up to him,” added Pacquiao in Filipino.

 

“I think he can help change our country. In our moments together, I have known him as someone who’s pro-poor. He said he wants to provide jobs for every Filipino, and keep the beggars off the streets. He said if they have jobs then they won’t beg,” said Pacquiao.

 

Pacquiao ran for a congressional seat in his hometown in Gen. Santos City in 2007 but, despite his closeness to Malacañang, lost to incumbent Darlene Custodio.

 

He wants to give it another shot in Saranngani, and it seems that he’s now doing it under the banner of the opposition. A few days ago, he met with Estrada in GenSan and got the endorsement of the ex-President.

 

“I’ve known Manny Pacquiao as pro-poor because he was once poor. Yes, I endorse him,” said Estrada, who raised the hand of the boxer.

 

“I want to extend my gratitude to President Estrada,” said Pacquiao, “because it’s not only in boxing where he supports me but in my hopes of fulfilling my dreams.”

 

Pacquiao, however, said he has not yet made any commitment to anyone

If there is one thing I have to dislike about manny, its the company he keeps. Many of them are just riding on his coat tail. At sa mga nageendorso kay manny ngayon na tumakbo bilang congressman, isa lang masasabi ko, di nila mahal si manny. Kung talagang mahal nila si Manny, di nila ito papapasukin sa isang bagay na ikakasira lang nya. The only reason why he wants to be a congressman was because, Chavit Singson said na dun siya mas maganda ilagay. Anak ng? Ano ito baketball? Tsaka bakit si Chavit magdedesisyon para sa kanya.

 

Magmumukha lang gago si manny sa congresso, walang kaalam alam taong ito sa public office lalong lalo na sa pag gawa ng batas. Magiging ala Bong Revilla at Lito Lapid lang siya. Gagawin gagawin lang siyang uto uto ng mga bwakaw na pulitiko. The True calling of Manny pacquiao is sports not politics, and he should realize that. Hindi naman sulusyon ang pulitika para makatulong ka sa kababayan mo eh. In fact baka nga mas masira pa sila pag pinasok mo pulitika. Higit sa lahat pagtatawanan lang siya ng boxing historians. Iwanan mo ba naman peak ng career mo para lang sa walang kwentang pulitika sa bansa na ito.

 

Remember Manny has not yet even reached a prime. Lalo pa siyang gumagaling with each fight. He is having more and more fans, and he owes it to the sport and the people who watch his fights to be the best of what he can be in this sport. Pansinin nyo, nitong huling taon, lalong gumaganda skills ni manny, kasi panay panay laban niya at di siya nakatengga. in one year he fights 3 times. meaning at least 6 months siya in training sa isang taon, pwera pa yung 1 month weight lifting training nya bago siya pumunta sa wild card gym. Batak na batak at maganda kundisyon ni manny, puputulin nya lang momentum ng pag angat nya.

 

Tsaka di pa ba siya nadala. Naboo siya ng mga tao sa cebu, at kumain siya ng alikabok nung nakaraang election. He should listen to the people. They want him on the ring, not in congress.

 

2 scenarios nakikita ko for manny to change his mind

 

1.) Hindi siya iboto ng mga tao, and he would realize that he has to be on the ring, kasi yun ang gusto ng tao sa kanya.

 

2.) Floyd wins over marquez, and calls out manny next. Floyd being the trash talking punk he is, will assume the villain role will start taunting manny pacquiao. Then he will start giving racial slurs to the Philippines, and manny would be forced to postpone his political plans to protect the honor of our country. Remember Floyd toyed with the british flag nung press conference nila ni hatton.

Don't believe everything you read about this being his last fight. Honestly, Pacquiao likes the adulation but he is a tired fighter, that can happen to any fighter, having started when he was 18. BUT, BUT he cannot walk away from fights that can make him $20-40M/fight. He will fight Mosley, Mayweather and JMM III and then call it quits. So that would put him, finally retiring at around 2011.

Manny, foundation na lang itayo mo, wag ka na lang pumasok sa politics. Sa umpisa lang baluktot na kaagad ang iyong ginagawa kasi sabi mo tutulungan ko gumanda ang buhay ng mga taga Saranggani. Manny, ang congressman, nag a author ng bills, hindi para mamudmod ng proyekto sa constituents nila.(although ginagawa nga naman kasi ng mga tongressmen ito). Executive function ang nasasa isip mo, Manny. Mag isip ka ng malalim at wag pauuto sa mga demonyo sa paligid mo. Ikaw rin, magiging member ka ng LISTERINE GANG sa kongreso, samahan ng mga tongressmen na parating napapanisan ng laway. Wag kang gago, Manny.

pacman is choosing another almost over the hill fighter in Cotto......with the announcement of chiongbian family that they field a family member for a seat in congress against Pacquiao, i am hoping that he will be a loser in both fields :thumbsupsmiley:

 

 

i dont think cotto is over the hill already.. he just have the cobwebs of his last lost to margarito.

 

as for manny getting a crack again at politics, well his chances is very very dim!..
