"Pacquiao" is now a verb ...

I think its ok for hardcore PacFanBoys to come up with threads like these really. It can get annoying sometimes but think about it. When was the last time you heard of a Filipino being under the spotlight as much as Pacquiao or achieve nearly as much? For other countries is normal to have not only one but MANY boxers in different weight divisions as champions and Hall of Famers. Think about Mexico, Puerto Rico, USA, England, etc. So let them be. It may last maybe 2 or 3 more years while Pac is fighting because after that, maybe other Filipino boxers will follow, which is good! More competition to the sport or maybe things will go back to how they were with no asian in the boxing spotlight for many years to come.

Think about this, let's say that Bangladesh beat Brazil in the World Cup and suddenly became competitive and dominate the sport, wouldn't Bangladesh have a lot to brag about, be proud, etc.? Well, think Pac now. Saddoboxer and hardcore PacFanBoys deserves to enjoy this ride while it lasts . I just shake my head slowly and smile when I see threads like this .

I am glad we have Pac in the sport. He brings excitement, big fights, and all the good stuff. A nice likeable humble guy.

Presently Philippines has 3 boxing champs... Last year there's a time when it has 5 champs at the same time... Many years ago there's a time when it has more than 6 champs at one time...

Currently Filipinos focused more on Pacquiao coz he's so big, so popular... In fact, I think he's the most popular active boxer right now all over the world...

Of course Chino didnt know that.

Philippines didn't even claimed Filipino-American Brian Viloria... It should have been 4 champs at this time...

Nonito Donaire - IBF 112, P4P #8
Donnie Nietes - WBO 105
Manny Pacquiao - IBO/Ring 140, P4P #1
Brian Viloria - IBF 108

After PAC retires, I think Donaire will take over as Philippines #1 boxer... This boy is so skilled and smart... Donaire is only 26 years old and he's already #8 on Ring Mag's P4P list... Very bright future...

There's also some good Filipino prospects like Bernabe Concepcion (only 20 years old) and Melligin... Future champs...
