Manny Pacquiao unites a nation again and again
2 rounds then Manny Pacquiao proved that he is the champ again and again!
It was absolutely delightful to see how Manny Pacquiao knocked out Ricky Hatton in second round – having send him to the floor twice in round 1.
The streets of Metro Manila was absolutely deserted during the fight, this picture was taken at the beginning of round 1. No one unites the Filipino nation better than Manny Pacquiao. When Manny fights cars stop driving and everyone lays down their arms.

Go Manny go!
But… the darn commercials. I think that about 70% of the time was spend watching commercials. The rights to the fight was purchased by one TV station and they did not offer pay per view. In the past pay per view was possible but since many barangays (a barangay is a part of a city usually headed by a barangay captain working for the mayor) would purchase one pay per view then show it for 300 – 400 people on a big screen that is no longer an option. Now we either have to go to a movie house or live with these darn commercials…
Following the fight Rambo and I went to Crispy Cream Donoughts to celebrate!
This little Crispy Cream attendant just got a new hat! He even had the hat on when he went to bed
