"Pacquiao" is now a verb ...

[The Congressman]

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...

I see Donaire getting Pac's 130 million fans worldwide one year from now once Pac retire. He won't be able to do what Manny accomplished, but he'll still be the next big thing. So far he won world title at 112. With his size and power, I see him dominating 115 and 118. I believe he'll also be successful at 122, 126, and 130 two or three years from now.
