GRAPEVINE, TEXAS?As Muhammad Ali’s comical sidekick Drew ?Bundini? Brown used to often say, ?From the root to the fruit.?
I thought of Bundini’s expression when I had the pleasure of finally meeting Manny Pacquiao’s lovely mother, Aling Dionesia, at Wednesday’s Pacquiao-Antonio Margarito press conferece at Cowboys Stadium.
Without any prompting, the mother of five other children besides Megamanny went into a cocked muscle pose reminiscent of a spinach-eating Popeye.
Clearly, Pacmom is more than ready to rumble even though she keeps hoping and praying the next Manny fight will be his last.
Please enjoy my massive slideshow with photos taken by myself and the ubiquitous Top Rank shutterbug par excellence, Chris Farina.
