Hi buddy!
Oh, the Cold War is still being sold by ABS-CBN? Shame. It's the Philippines' biggest network, isn't it? Holyfield is still a huge name? Well...
I think the network should be partly faulted for Filipinos not knowing much about the Diazes. They would have been big names by now had TV sport s execs looked down the road. Pacquiao facing one of them seemed apparent as early as a year ago. The build up should have started that early too. In good part,that's what sports execs are paid highly for: to forecast big events that they can put up in the future. They should have had tied the names of the Diazes as well as Valero's, Guzman's, etc. to Pacquiao's even during the time when they had that Larios bout. Had they sown the seeds, they would have started reaping abudantly by now. Filipinos would have been horrified over the thought of missing the the coming Chicago fight.
I dunno, buddy, but I think somebody or a whole bunch of somebodies have been caught sleeping...
What dya say to the idea that you and some of the Pinoy Lounge gang take over, eh?
I'm sure you guys will do a splendid job.
Good to see ya again!
Edit: As for Juan grown bigger, actually, many of his early fights were around the welterweight-jr. welter classes.Last edited by grayfist; 10-13-2007, 01:59 AM.Comment

O man Diaz is going to win this one. Diaz is going to lose big time.
ha ha ha.
Anyway, it's a good fight. Julio has a sneaky right hand that will find its mark early. If he cant get Juan hurt and out early then he has no shot. Juan is going to establish his rythym and bust him. First 4 rounds will be close and then Juan will start to take over. Julio goes straight back so Juan wont have a hard time cutting the ring off and finding him on the ropes. Juan by dominating UD.Comment

One among the two of the Philippiness biggest networks, the other one being GMA. I agree with what you said buddy but the problem is that pacman's future fights will be aired by GMA so the other networks maybe making a move to pull the other down.Hi buddy!

Hi JOM'S!
True, Holyfield's name has the greater recall anywhere. But then, had the TV networks done their job, the Diazes would not have been unknowns at this stage, given that their names can be easily tied to the most popular Filipino fighter. No one can beat Pacquiao's name in the Philippines, and the Diazes' names can be an easy sell. Much like the Morales and Barrera names were easy sells because of their direct association with Pacquiao.
Those execs should have seen this association coming, at the very least, a year ago.
I suggested to our ol' buddy kadyo that he and some of you guys at the Pinoy Lounge should take over the sports departments of Philippine TV networks. I'm sure you'll do a much better job even if you just sleepwalk through...

From what I see, buddy, I don't know how that can work well for ABS. Pacquiao is Pacquiao in the Philippines and nobody comes close. Holyfield is surely not the way to go to beat a Pacquiao in the ratings.
ABS appears to me like taking a Hail Mary swing. I doubt that it would land.
They would have had a better chance had they built up fights of Pacquiao's prospective opponents. They'll be indirectly using the Pacquiao name had they done that.
Not pretty clever, those high paid guys are, are they?
As for you guys taking over... Why don't you give it a serious thought? You cannot possibly do worse, buddy! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha!Last edited by grayfist; 10-13-2007, 02:23 AM.Comment
