Team Pacquiao Aims Boxing Record

Team Pacquiao is aiming for a boxing record this coming 13th of November 2010 in Dallas Texas where cowboys and cowgirls are in their usual get-up of 10 gallon Stetson hats, boots, cool jeans, corduroys and belt buckles which normally gives an added attraction to visitors especially those who loves the place for its colorful history and country music.

Team Pacquiao is now in intense training in Baguio City, the summer capital of the Philippines where fans and bystanders alike watched Pacquiao with glee and in star-struck mode. The boxer has big followers in the country and he is mobbed every time he’s exposed to the crowd, the one that admires and follow Pacquiao’s successful career as “people’s champ.”

Many, including Freddie Roach are hoping for Pacquiao to dispatch the bigger Margarito comes fight night. But could it be a walk-in-the-park for Pacquiao? Maybe the answer is on the hands of Pacquiao, known for having sledgehammer-like hands that knocks opponent in total submission.

Manny Pacquiao who is a midget by size according to lil’ Floyd Mayweather Jr., will be hard-pressed to defeat Antonio Margarito who stands at 5’11’’ compared to Pacquiao’s height of 5’6’’ with a body frame slightly smaller than the Mexican fighter. Nonetheless, Team Pacquiao is confident to knock-out Margarito who was once accused of using illegal hand-wraps in his previous fight against Mosley.

Hopefully Pacquiao will still deliver his mastery of the game to show to the world that he is still the boxer people loves to see inside the ring and not as a politician who rubs elbow with fellow lawmakers who have done nothing to improve the lot of the majority of poor Filipino people despite of the billions of pork barrel funds being given to all members of congress.

Congressman Pacquiao is aiming for the number “eight.” Eight championship belts in eight different weight divisions. Incidentally, congressman Pacquiao had just got his extra other 8 when he won a congressional seat last May 10, 2010 election. The number 8 is the official car plate of congressmen in the Philippines. Let’s see if Pacquiao get his record 8 via Antonio Margarito in Dallas, Texas.

LIL' FLOYD JR.’S INSINCERE APOLOGY CAST DOUBT TO MANY

Lil' Floyd Jr., after taking a respite from his spontaneous psychotic behavior, finally issued a statement denying that he is a racist and made an insincere apology to Pacquiao and his fans. Insincere because after he apologized, his motor-mouth immediately brags about his boxing career, his life, his money and how he gets it in hundreds of millions of dollars.

Well, enough of that childish attitude and arrogance from a man who despise sportsmanship, respect and dignified manner. lil' Flod should face his demons and reintegrate his self in the civilized world that he has had connections before he was eaten by his own arrogance, egotistic self, and love of money and racist leanings.

If he is true to himself lil' Floyd should shed his baggage of immaturity and decongest his mind of contorted views about himself, of being superior to others. Because I assume that he wasn’t influenced by the Aryan doctrine of Adolf Hitler who popularized superior race, racial discrimination and many other abominable acts that was recorded in the history of our complex world.

Although, lil' Floyd Jr.’s insincere apology cast doubt to many, the Filipino race is forgiving and easily put enmity and hurt feelings behind their backs as if nothing happened. This is the time for lil' Floyd Jr. to show who he really is, not a racist kind of a man but a man of respect clothed with the armor of magnanimity and maturity.
