Philippines TOP 10 Fighters of All-Time

[Point Blank]

dont worry guys this ***** xcaret is burnt from his obsessions with pacquiao and the filipinos. check him out all his posts are the same ****ing think, it's all about pacquiao, pinoy this pinoy that. what the **** is new? well nothing what can you expect from a guy who lives in his brother and sister in laws basement with 20 other illegal mexicans who are paying 20 dollars each for rent. no pun intended. but this guy is not a legal resident here. why u think he is hiding in his basement? to avoid the immigration. he got this hatred with pinoys why? because pinoys get better job than he has. oh snap, he cant get a job anyway. then he is pissed off that a pinoy is kicking his idols. but wait i thought that he is a hardcore boxing fan? he is a fan of marquez isn't he? but howcome he is speechless with the marquez-casa fight? see it's obvious he is just burnt. his obsession is going very far.

My list

All time top ten.
1. Francisco "Pancho Villa" Guilledo - retired Jimmy Wilde, one of the 50 best
fighters of all-time. Already had 109 fights at 22-23 years old. Never KOed
in his career. Died prematurely, never saw his prime.

2. Manny Pacquiao - Still active and is currently in his prime. Held titles from
flyweight to lightweight facing and defeating three (as of writing) sho-ins
for hall of fame in the process - fighting them in their prime.

3. Gabriel "Flash" Elorde - Filipino champion with the longest reign.

4. Ceferino Garcia - Battled Henry Armstrong to a draw in Armstrong's bid for
boxing history. KOed fellow Hall of Famers Fred Apostoli, Lloyd Marshall and
Kid Azteca

5. Luisito Espinosa - Figure of Philippine Boxing in the 90s.
6. Ben Villaflor - Two time superfeatherweight champ never been KOed in his
career.
7. Eleuterio "Little Dado" Zapanta - Held the world flyweight and
bantamweight titles. Only lost to one person at the end of his career.
8. Gerry Penalosa - two division champ, oldest pinoy boxer to become champ,
still active, never been down in his career, out of his 6 losses 4 were via
SD.
9. Dodie-boy Penalosa - he suffered from polio, yet he kicked ass.
10. Rolando Navarrete - No doubt the hardest punching Filipino fighter, with power in both hands. Threw his best years away in prison.
