"Speaking of Pacquiao and fans getting worked up, ABS-CBN reports that two other fans died while watching Pacquiao's win over Vargas."
..Wow, are Philippine folks particularly susceptible to cardiac issues? This sounds like an epidemic if they're dropping at every fight.

And, RIP and condolences to the family.

I remember something like this happened to a few Pacquiao fans after the Marquez knockout in 2012.

Seriously?



I am not sure if I should be laughing, or sad right now. On one had, it's awful for the families and for someone to suffer that way.

On another, if you just see the headlines "pac fan dies after loss" or "nonito fan dies after loss". Sorry, but I laughed out loud when I read the title.

The soldier in me can find humor in anything.

It's not news people, it happens constantly. It just so happens they were watching boxing at the time.

I see. Good to know. So it's more a cultural thing?
In one sense, I admire their passion. In another sense, I don't really have nationalistic sentiments so I can't really relate to being vested in a fighter like that.
