    Does Manny Pacquiao have a successor from the Phillipines in the wings?

    From what most people say Nonito is more estadounidense than Filipino, I am wondering the day Manny leaves boxing, is there another home grown talented fighter that has potential to be the next major Filipino star/elite fighter/world ranked pound for pound best? I don't know too much about Filipino boxing and it's a serious question. There must be some good prospects out there, right?

    I think it's interesting to see who will be the next megastar Filipino boxer who will carry the torch as far as bringing more fans from around the world to the sport we all love. I would say asian, but I want to talk about specifically Filipinos, mainly because if I made it about all asians, I feel like Japanese boxers have the largest talent pool/most champions, but again, I am not too familiar with Filipino boxing. Discuss?

      Obviously I didn't mean a replica, I explained in my OP how I mean in the sense of having a major impact/being dominant in the sport.

              Was supposed to be Donaire...... but everybody says he's American because he migrated as a kid.
              My guess... They're going to push the Penalosa brothers hard. I think they're on the Macau card next week and possibly on the untelevised card of the Pac/Rios fight.
              One of them is 11-0 with 11 KO's... or 10-0 with 10KO's.
              They come from a family name, they're looking good for their fights and they have Arum backing them (don't know if he's promoting them or he's working with ALA to help build his Asian card).
              Good stuff can also come from Milan Melindo if he wins next week against Estrada, but I doubt it.

              But ultimately no... there will probably never be another Manny Pacquiao

                Man I used to say that around here and would get laughed at. I don't know man, he didn't look so good recently.

                  Manny Pacquiao was def the Jackie Robinson to the Filipinos. There will never be another one. Donaire was suppose to be it, but he's kind a too old to take the thrown now. Will be really hard for those new flips to get on that PPV level

                    No. Donaire's hypejob ass was their only hope, and Rigo sodomised him.
