The
Pacquiao-Bradley rubber match last Sunday was exciting as the two, in a chess
match, exchanged hard flurries of blows. It became more exciting after Manny
gave a powerful left hook on the right face of the plunging Bradley that caused
his knock down at the seventh round after his gloves touched the canvas.
ABS-CBN interviews me on my post analysis of Manny Pacquiao's win
against Tim Bradley on their rubber match or 3rd Fight.
Any parts
of the body except the sole of the shoes that touches the floor would be
deducted by points. Those are the perennial rule in boxing.
In the
ninth round fight fans, especially the screaming bakya crowd in the Philippines, jumped hysterically from their seats and cheered Pacquiao after he hit with his
left power punch the American that caused him to somersault at the canvass.
ABS-CBN TV interviews me after Manny Pacquiao won with
two knocked downs against Timothy Bradley.
"Manny so
powerful this time he could knock down opponents again,” my errand boy Procopio
shouted.
“Manny so powerful this time, his political stocks at Social Weather Station and Pulse
Asia would shoot up from Number 8 to the stratosphere. Delikado si (senatorial
bets) Tito Sotto and Franklin Drilon lalo na nag aantay na kay Manny Pacquiao
ang maingay at mahabang motorcade sa Manila,” I silently told myself, too.
As what
host Bill O’Reilly would pose at his guest at Fox News TV: “What say you,
(senatorial aspirant) Walden Bello?
Compute na
lang natin kung ilan ang kina-in ng media hype sa allowable by the Commission on Election na radio and
television propaganda hours the Filipino Superman had accumulated.
