Congratulation Manny “Pacman” Pacquiao: Business is Over
Congratulation Manny Pacquiao for making a history
as 1st Asian boxer to win 3 titles. By winning a split decision over
Juan Manuel Marquez on Sunday March 16, 2008 (Philippines), at the Mandalay Bay
Resort and Casino, Las Vegas, USA dubbed as “Unfinished Business”.We Filipinos are proud of you, I am getting
more exited on Pacquiao’s next fight against David Diaz from United States, and
I have more confident this time that Pacman can easily defeat David Diaz by the
way of KO.
David Diaz has a record of 34 won (KO 17), 1 lost
(KO 1), 1 drawn while Pacquiao now has a record of 46 won (KO 35), 3 lost (KO
2),2 draws. David Diaz records are
mostly won by Unanimous decision and Split decision, Pacquiao’s records are
mostly won by KO and TKO, Diaz only lost is 1 that lost is by the way of knock
Out, Diaz records kept me thinking that mostly all of his victories are home
decisions if Pacquiao will defeat him by KO the Judges will have no choice but
to let Pacquiao win the fight lol…
Finally here is the fight that I've been waiting for.
