Transformer Pacquiao

[Ding Carpio]

Just got back from Kabisera where wife and I saw the Pacquiao fight. We were with (among other barkada) two Englishmen who happen to grow up in the same neighborhood as Hatton. You can just imagine all the heckling as the fight was going on. Also probably the first time I got intoxicated before noon.

But, straight to the point now. Pacquiao has always surprised me in every fight: He keeps transforming. I admit I never had much respect for the brawler in him in his early fights. But he continually learned and changed himself. In the last three fights, he became more methodical (surgical, if you will). With Hatton, saw the "Counterpuncher Pacquiao". Counterpunching is an art and requires lightning reflexes. His right jabs were also sledgehammers, something you rarely see in a southpaw.

Can hardly wait til the Mayweather Fight!

Hehe.... I watched the fight via live streaming, can't put up with GMA-7's commercials and too lazy to go out and watch at PPV centers.

I heard through the grapevine that he and Chavit are into photography (Nikon gear) and Chavit will shoot birds. Hope they join the forum.

That's the great thing with Manny. I think Roach made it clear in the Dela Joya fight, that the reason Dela Joya lost is he didn't follow roach's instructions. that's what makes Manny different, he knows how to follow instructions and roach knows what instructions to give.

Mayweather? Mayweather was there during the fight, watching. He fought hatton for 10 rounds and could not knock hatton down. Now that he has seen Manny up close.. he should think twice before getting closer. hehe.

And oh yeah, I have also heard Manny and Chavit both have Nikon 5D (I think) but Mr. Singson is the one with the telephoto for birds. I also hope he joins the forums..

From what I know Pacman uses Nikon & Canon. The local Nikon distributor is making it appear Pacman is a Nikon endorser but... at the price he is charging it wont fit into the equation.

Anyhows I hope Pacman knows what he is doing with his money. I'd hate the fella go broke because of his friends and family.

Pacman is endorsing Nikon's Coolpix. (old thread, actually) ;D

Another good reason to go Nikon.
