Don't get so defensive. The thread was a joke, a piss take, something for people to have a little laugh about.
English is a lingua franca in the Philippines, but I would hazard a guess that the numbers of people fluent in the language are rather more limited. Manny's level of English is quite common for people in the Philippines, and that's no knock on him because people there often speak multiple languages as you point out. If you say the word bilingual to a person in the UK they would think you were questioning their sexuality.![]()
LMAO on this thread.. I've been active lately and I have bump into Pac fans and now I'm startin to think they're Pac's lawyers. Fanboys relax. Pac's english is fine.Filipinos really speak english well but I think they use to interchange F and P, C and K. I had a couple of Filipino friends back in Hawaii and I'd say they're still better than most Asians I heard.you know..the Japanese are 100x worse. I once heard a Jap guy in youtube singing to Oasis' 'Don't Look Back In Anger' and he was like "Srip inside the eye of your mind......sooooo Sarry can't wait!!" I was like WTF! He was really doing great but I got annoyed by his pronounciations and I can't stand it.
An empty can is always noisy.
Whenever Pac talks, the majority of the time he is saying eeerm. Ie
Ricky Hatton is eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeerrrr, great fighter eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeerrrrrr he will be eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeerrrrrrrrrm tough fight
He doesnt trash talk either so he is totally boring to listen to.
Pacs english is fine imo,Americans dont really care if you speak bad english cause in a way everybody doas long as you get your point across. Some filipino will mock other filipinos cause they sound funny but i think they should just accept it cause it is what it is.
I know some jokes about filipino sentences. West coast dudes probubly heard of these too.
grandson: "hey grandpa what are you up to?"
grandpa: "look hmm penis"
grandson: "yea grandpa you finish your cereal"

Pac doesn't say very much. I was watching some video of Pac and Hatton speaking yesterday. Hatton spoke for a good five minutes and I was genuinely interested to hear what he was going to say next. Manny spoke for a minute and the only thing that grabbed me was him saying something about being from Scotland. Aside from that Pac just couldn't hold my attention whatsoever.
We won't get any fireworks in the build up, but the fight might turn out alright.![]()
Hey if Pac claims to be Scottish can we claim him even if he loses, we don't have anyone that's that good at anything right now
Try listening to some Scottish boxers mate, we have a whole language all to ourselves that's still meant to be English.............to all the serious folks here, build a bridge and get over it or a tunnel and work though it.![]()

It's karaoke time. Sing with me y'all!...
Peelings, nothing more than peelings,
trying to forget my peelings of love.
Teardrops rolling down on my face,
trying to forget my peelings of love.
Peelings, for all my life I'll feel it.
I wish I've never met you, girl; you'll never come again.
Peelings, wo-o-o peelings,
wo-o-o, peel you again in my arms.
Peelings, peelings like I've never lost you
and peelings like I've never have you again in my heart.
Peelings, for all my life I'll feel it.
I wish I've never met you, girl; you'll never come again.
Peelings, peelings like I've never lost you
and peelings like I've never have you again in my life.
Peelings, wo-o-o peelings,
wo-o-o, peelings again in my arms.
Peelings...
Oddly enough,Ive been dealing with alot of Peurto Rican and Mexican fighters lately,Id rather talk to their managers,then call Ireland. I may occasionally have to ask them to repeat things,but its generally not a problem.
Ireland,I cant understand a word thats coming out of their mouth.
You want to see me wince hard,tell me I have to call Ireland about a fight.
Im not saying it to be offensive,but sweet jesus,generally when I have to call over there,I sound like Dan Rather,and they sound like Brad Pitt's character from Snatch. I almost wish I could record those calls,just so I could have someone else listen to them,and ask,"Did you understand a word of that?"
what can i say? pac uses "clito rees gloves".
Pacquiao "Ehhhhhh yeh, Saddoboxer? He ehhhhhh stalker.
I have ahhhhh ehhhh restraining order."![]()
pac is trying to be like william wallace in braveheartbecause of his fight with hatton.
