Pacquiao defeats Barrera

Congratulations to Manny Pacquiao for defeating Marco Antonio Barrera!

Barrera is reported to be set for retirement as this game was his last fight. He is happy for proving that Pacquiao won't be able to knock him out.

In the Philippines, time stopped during the match with zero-crime happening during the early hours up to the end of the fight. Filipinos from all walks of life monitored the fight and cheered on. Legislators sees the fight and the victory as a timely respect from all the political bickerings happening in the country.

This is also a great victory for Pacquiao where his countrymen shall eagerly await for his return.
Once again, Pacquiao made us all Filipinos proud. Cheers Manny!

Pacquiao prepares for Barrera match

Sorry folks for not being able to update this blog lately. Got too busy. =(

The Manny Pacquiao and Antonio Barrera match is slated this October 6 at the Mandalay Bay Resort in Las Vegas. Majority of fans are excited as Pacquiao promises a great fight and taking the effort in sharpening his punches. He also sealed the deal with GMA 7 for the TV airing rights.

Unfortunately, as in the past fights, Pacquiao always get distracted and this puts a lot of pressure to his trainer, Freddie Roach. Doing the training in unsecured facilities in the Philippines attracts attention from uninvited fans during practice sessions.

Despite Pacquiao's fighting form, Barrera can't be underestimated. Whether this will be a revenge for Barrera or a repeat victory for Pacquiao remains to be seen.

With blessings coming to Pacquiao left and right, he doesn't hesitate to share this whenever he can. However, it is sad when you hear of people conning their fellowmen whom they promised to help in the first place. Perhaps it is time for Pacquiao to have another person handle these type of concerns as he is getting abused already.
