Super PacMan Returns (the p-2)

Manny! Manny! Manny!
Our Super Hero so to speak, has just renew his winning and send his army of adoring fans in cloud nine again. This, after earning his incredible 8th World Title in Arlington Las Vegas 3 Sundays ago. Don Manny "the Destroyer" Pacquiao no doubt is the Man!, the real Pride of Pinoys and the rightful heir to the throne of another boxing legend Mohammad Ali. Adding to our super Hero's bloody Collection, another Mexican Fighter was stripped of fame and glory, - the nearly paralyzed Antonio "Tornado" Margarito this time - after Pacman's mouthful of punches, so speedy and solid, landed w/o ado on all parts of the tall man's face, body and internal organs. News says, whilst Mexico's deglamourized gladiator is holidaying in the hospital for a complete make-over, ours is having a thanksgiving concert in Vegas, singing and partying there like a rockstar as if no eye-closing combat happened 2 gory days ago in the same US state.

Money, Money, Money

On a lighter note, behind the success of the Man are the equally famous women of his life (other women, not included). Talk of Manny's first lady - Dona Jinky's Pacquiao's alleged sky-is-the-limit shopping of the world's expensive Hermes bag, whereas Dona Dionisia is on her knees, lighting candles and calling on all the Saints and Angels while crying a river and collapsing the same time, in fear and agony for the son's only life - all for the sake of maintaining stardom and nobility for the country, and yes, more and more fortune that continue to propel their growing clan in the pedestal.

For the love of a mother who fret too much, a posh car is said to be the great son's token, forget not his unwavering gift of charity to all those who queue before him. Money, it seems, is synonymous to Manny these days. Heck, even a gradeschooler knows it: the Lotto's grand prize is no match to the People Champ's one-time salary making him among of the top 10 of the Planet's richest athlete.

Fight-Fight-Fight

Our Hero seemed to have tested and tasted everything. He's now in the prime of his career and in the peak of his success. And he has the mortal combat AKA Boxing and supporters of all kinds and motive to thank for. Yet, despite the frenetic call for his early retirement, Farewell to the sport that made him the richest and the greatest is still a long-way in his vocabulary. In fact, Combat Promoter Bob Arum and Maverick Coach, the husky-voiced Don Freddy Roach is itching to schedule the Fighting Congressman for a next fight intended to outshine his last. Among the possible brave contender is Yuri Foreman of Israel and yes, ANOTHER MEXICAN FIGHTER Juan Manuel Marquez for a reunion fight; but the gore-loving audience is wildly cheering Pacman to silence the talkative Black-American Floyd Mayweather Jr.

.

Exactly Where, When, with Whom and How Much is not a question. Our Super Hero was born to give the Philippines a new merit, his family an extra riches, his name a renewed fame, his audience a wild entertainment that promise to record another chapter in History. This is, if he could keep the skull and sanity in its fighting form, the Neuro-Doctors or the brain-expert warns. Nobody wants to see PacMom and PacMan in a pathethic rendition of Petta.

Come his next Fight, Let us all pray for our hero's safety.
