Don’t tell any Pinoys, but I was actually rooting for Mayweather!
Perhaps I just enjoy not following the masses. I was just annoyed at how desperate my countrymen were to have a hero they can be proud of. Sure Mayweather is a jerk and Pacquiao is a much nicer guy, but Manny tries to be too many things at the same time and as a result is really bad at everything not related to boxing.
He became a congressman just because people thought name recognition is all that’s needed to run a country and had the worst attendance of all congressmen. He now wants to become a senator! And he’ll probably win again - damn it!
As for a rematch, they’ll be stupid not to do it - with the incredible amount of cash thrown their way.
I’m a Pacquiao fan as a fighter. But he was awful in the first fight. I would like to see them do it again with Pacquiao healthy.
As for his politics, he seems a bit too liberal for me. But he seems to be a good Christian and family man which is tough to be when you’re swimming in money.
Welcome to the Obama watch list.
