      My dad took me to the one Oscar fight we could afford (Oscar-Castellejo) and it had this young Filipino we had no idea about.

      He must have been the guy all those people we had seen walking around the casino on Friday came too see..all decked out in the familiar bright Filipino colors. He comes in as the unknown challenger but somehow he's got all these fans sitting around the arena. he just comes out and steamrolls. They go crazy and I still have no idea what's going on or who he is. But it left a huge impression because of the people behind him.

      Definitely one of my luckiest moments in attending a card. Years later, I attended as many Pac fights as I could during the height, delivered almost every time, what a ride.

      Congratulations

        Lol. Where is the jealousy in saying Floyd vs. Madonna 2 was a garbage fight that didn't live up to the hype

        Floyd Boys always sobbing uncontrollably

          Sure sure! History says otherwise but keep believing your narrative.

            Shifting goalposts as always. I NEVER said it was a great fight. You guys said it undersold on PPV and yet Floyd got his guaranteed $32 million.

            We were talking about diminishing returns which was another goalpost shift while we were talking about the PPV record numbers. When I mention Floyd got paid regardless, you go into 3rd gear and call the fight garbage. Loony toons all of you.

            Meanwhile, the Brandon Rios mismatch was such a great fight for you guys. Rios was coming off a loss and coming up in weight but great performance as always.

            Go ahead, ignore everything and shift to a new goal post. I expect nothing less.

              At least ten ducks. And two video confessions about being a coward.
