Keep posting the facts. Logic will prevail but we have to keep strong in our resolve. These haters of facts and logic are louder and hold firm to the popular opinion that the world is flat because they cant see the world curve. We can not stop fighting against haters of what is true. Truth will always overcome hate, hate and ignorance. Stand firm, truth and logic is on your side.
Sure, Mr. Spock.

Youngest Filipino Champion
YOUNGEST EVER FILIPINO BOXING CHAMPION IS FROM OLONGAPO
By Rene Bonsubre, Jr. - PhilBoxing.com
There have been recent articles stating that Ben Villaflor is the youngest Filipino to win a world boxing title. I got a bit curious because I remember reading from my collection of old boxing magazines that Morris East was also a teenage world champion.
So, I decided to look it up in boxrec.com. Ben Villaflor was born November 10, 1952 in Negros Occidental and won the capturing the WBA junior lightweight title on April 25, 1972, at 19 years and five months when he beat Venezuelan Alfredo Marcano by 15 round unanimous decision in Hawaii.
Morris East born August 8, 1973 in Olongapo City, Zambales was 19 years and one month old when he won the title on September 9, 1992. He beat Akinobu Hiranaka of Japan for the WBA jr. welterweight title in Tokyo. His 11th round knockout victory was chosen as Ring Magazine's KO of the year for 1992.
East is the second youngest boxer to win a world title at 140 lbs. Puerto Rico's Wilfred Benitez won the WBC jr. welterweight title when he was 17 years old.
This would make East our youngest ever world boxing champion. The reason that this question is raised is that Marvin Sonsona will be 19 years and 5 weeks old when he fights Puerto Rico’s Jose Lopez for the WBO superflyweight world title this September 4.
I actually had a very interesting conversation with promoter Sammy Gello-ani regarding these facts since he handled East as a prizefighter. East actually relocated to Cebu City and was just roaming around Colon Street. He was spotted by Lito Cortes and brought to the Cebu Coliseum gym and Gello-ani offered him amateur fights to keep him earning for his meals. Gello-ani now promotes Sonsona who even if he beats Lopez would not beat East’s record.
Manny Pacquiao was also 19 but was thirteen days away from turning 20 when he won the first of his six world titles via an eighth round knockout over Chatchai Sasakul for the WBC flyweight crown in Thailand in December 1998.
Malcolm Tunacao of Mandaue City, Cebu holds the Philippine record for the shortest route taken towards a world title. He only had ten pro fights when he took the WBC flyweight crown from Medgoen (3K - Battery) Lukchaopormasek of Thailand via 7th round knockout in May 19, 2000. Malcolm was 21 years old during his brief title reign.

Editor's Note: PhilBoxing.com has contacted Morris East in Las Vegas where he is now based, and East has confirmed the veracity of his birth data at boxrec.com. East said he is aware that he is the Philippines' youngest world champion and felt 'amused' that Filipino boxing writers have seemingly 'forgotten' him.
Boss Kadyo / KillaKali, is that you? :D
Morris East, that's a name I haven't heard in a long time...thanks for the article!
we pinoy got the flat noses, dark skin and the poverty from the africans. but not the large penis.
Hinahanap ka nang mga tropa mo sa Roxas Boulevard...yung white bird. :fest30:
@LeeVanCleef wow.thx for the red k..You're a smart mother****er. That's right..martinez is overated...Go to hell *****
Gee, I have three messages of the same thing.....I might as well try another canned tuna brand for dinner :D
Only Pactard have avatars of things they want but can never get.
Only Pactards have avatars of people they wish they could be, but they lack the stones to achieve that.
For you then..... :booty:
Very true, I agree. Who would be a good replacement for Roach, that's a good question......
With Mannys style??????????????????????????
I'm gonna think about that one dude... That's a damn good question.
Remember that Pac didn't participate in Amateurs, especially in the National pool where he might have a better knowledge of fundamentals. In other words, he learned his craft more on the pros, however flawed it may have affected his style.
That trainer would try to de-construct Manny's habits for the meantime then.
True, I'm not saying he would. But he'd have been just as good (Talent wise)
Let me ask you this: Who would train Pacquiao (if Roach wasn't available at the time) and where would he be from 2001 til today? :)
I think he'd be good, explosive, but not the dynamo he'll be known for.
Manny could win 9 or 10 belts, but Floyd is better.
Robert has 7 rings, Jordan only has 6. So that means Robert was better than Jordan?...
Just something to think about:439:
Russell's 11 rings >>>> Jordan's 6 rings
:lol1: at your analogy.
They pull a knife, you pull a gun. He sends one of yours to the hospital, you send one of his to the morgue. That's the pacquiao way!
Jk.
Very Sean Connery of ya :D
TBH, I don't think there is a natural bias among many AA's to side w Floyd. I know more than a few who really dislike him.
What has happened is that Paclanders have been so racist, that they make people unite AGAINST them.
Please kill yourself first before you make another retarded post, racist pig. :pat:
this troll has me on ignore yet he has the balls to post stupidity in my thread :lol1:
It has nothing to do with balls. You're just sucking Cotto's ass cuz' Packy pulled a fast one on him w/ a bullshit catchweight and you'll be forever grateful to him for making him look better than he is.
You'e faux diplomacy is poorly executed and totally transparent.
Die.
The fact that you think Cotto is better than Martinez proves you've only been watching boxing since Packy has been fighting.
You know nothing. Take your f@ggot ribbons and shove em' up your own ass coward.
:nonono:
just tripping around here....Game 3 for the Lakeshow tomorrow
