From senators to congressmen, and Makati yuppies to street vendors, the whole country, it seems, has become a land of boxing experts wanting to have a piece of Filipino world champion Manny Pacquiao.
Politicians yersterday wasted rolls and rolls of paper and limited e-mail spaces with press releases to each and every Philippine newspaper to ride on Pacquiao’s victory over Marco Antonio Barrera of Mexico.
Barrera lost his ?People’s champion? tag to the hot hands of the General Santos City native via an 11th round technical knockout win in San Antonio, Texas on Sunday morning (Manila time).
