The Pacquiao Phenomenon

Streets were deserted. At times you can hear the breeze blowing, which you would rarely be able to do so in a noisy busy highway just about midday, unless it's a windy day. Was this Twilight Zone? An aftermath of a major catastrophe? But there's no evidence of a devastation anywhere. No really, it was all because of the Manny Pacquiao and Juan Manuel Marquez fight. You have just witnessed the "Pacquiao Phenomenon" in the Philippines wherein virtually all Filipinos are glued to the boob tube to watch the "Pride of the Nation" engage the next boxer who aspires to any of the boxing titles under his belt. 


They say crime rate in the Philippines goes to zero everytime the ultimate Pinoy boxer fights in the arena. How nice would it be if he fights everyday! Regardless of what fight analysts and critics say about his most recent victory, the Pacman is still undoubtedly the best. And the best of him comes primarily from his humble heart and unassuming character.

  1. I agree, Mr. DW... He is really awesome with a very humble character! Yesterday was the best day to go and relish Krispy Kreme Doughnuts... huhuhu.. Still, I wasn't able to nibble due to heaps of laundry... Blessings! ^_^

  2. He's simply the best, Mr Laito. I guess one of the most down-to-earth icons in the world today! :)
