becasue the thread would insinuate that pac didnt have to do anything becasue morales was already beaten before the first punch was thrown. its funny how before the fight a lot of people were saying morales will UD pac but he didnt. Morales said it himself. he was hurt.
Pinoys should enjoy pacman and his prime while they can

a great and a special, one in a million type of fighter, yes you can say that. it will take maybe 30-50 years. when can we see another muhammad ali? maybe another 20 yrs. ali came out during the 60's.
as i said, the last great and special filipino champion was gabriel "flash" elorde. superfeatherweight champ from 1960-1967. a record in the superfeatherweight division that maybe no one can break. not in the next few years, the way boxing is nowadays.
but "decent"? c'mon give me a break. rolando navarrete, dodie boy and gerry penalosa, luisito espinosa, to name a few are decent to good fighters. they just dont have the hype that manny pacquiao brings.
so excuse me and with due respect, there are a lot of "decent" pinoy fighters nowadays.
and one of them, a youngster, will fight in the undercard of winky wright vs. ike quartey. its on free hbo, so watch him, maybe you will like him too.
peace.

95% of flip boxing "fans" don't even know who "Flash" Elorde is. It will take 50 years to start another bandwagon...a great and a special, one in a million type of fighter, yes you can say that. it will take maybe 30-50 years. when can we see another muhammad ali? maybe another 20 yrs. ali came out during the 60's.
