Manny being Manny (Pacquiao)
Sure, it may be old news, but I’m still reveling in Pacquiao’s recent victory. The excitement & energy from last Saturday’s fight has since died down, but my head still buzzing with Pacquiao mania.
During my short breaks at work, I scoured the Internet trying to find the killer knockout that took Hatton out. Ultimately (& naturally), YouTube was my only source of Pacquiao-related videos. Of course, HBO doesn’t wanna play nice & share any clips with the inquiring fans. I did, however, find some clips that would entertain my mania for the time being…
Here’s a commercial shot with past opponent (& apparently now good friend) Erik Morales for San Miguel beer. You gotta give Pacquiao a lot of credit, as he insists on using his heavily-accented English (“‘Sup coats, how ya doin’?”):
For those familiar with the comedy stylings of fellow Filipino comedian Rex Navarrette, here’s his commentary of Manny’s post-bout, cringe-worthy interviews:
All in good nature, of course!
It’s impossible to hate this guy. Pacquiao fought his way to the top, earning the respect of his peers & gaining a vast number of fans. Class act all the way. One more inspirational Filipino to add to the list!
