Not Yet Sikat

• “The best boxer in the world is a Filipino” says spankyenriquez. Spanky continues to describe it as a brutal dissection: “It was painful to watch;a cold, objective dissection, a show of calibrated precision, almost Germanic in its efficiency.”

• Scarty knows that he is a once in a lifetime phenomenon: “I know there’s plenty to like about Manny and apparently plenty to hate about. Specially his lifestyle. But what he does outside of boxing is really not for us to judge what’s important is what he brings to the ring. Every time he steps into the ring he’s always in perfect form and condition. He never wants to come unprepared and never wants to disappoint us and I admire that most.”

• Kadyo has no doubts: “In his first fight as a lightweight, Pacquiao was as quick and powerful as ever - yet he also stayed disciplined, picking apart Diaz with a precision that hasn’t always been shown by a fighter who loves a good brawl.”

• Manny even met his own idols from the Boston Celtics: “Alam mo, sabi ko, bago ako lumaban at natapos ‘yong NBA finals at Celtics and nag-champion, sana ma-imbita ko ang Celtics. Nagkataon na nandito sila sa Vegas, so inimbita ko (sila). Nagpasalamat naman ako na pina-unlakan nila ang imbitasyon ko,” he said. (via GMAnews)

• Finally, commenter Vagrant (from Greenpinoy) has this to say: “dami nnmn kita ni pacquiao sana tumulong cya sa mga nasalanta ni frank!”
