WHY I WRITE ABOUT PACQUIAO AND MAYWEATHER

?Thrilla in Manila II? is not a remote possibility for 2014. There are fresh, positive scoops to the Mayweather-Pacquiao hit ?flick? that may lead to that. But why this never ending talk about such a seemingly never ending saga in fight sport?
Several people think that Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather Jr. are so special to me. They wonder why I don?t write much about other boxers except Pac and Floyd. Here?s why, and here?s my reply to the latest two publisher friends of prestigious sites:
I write as the inspiration comes. My pen or keyboard goes as the Lord leads, having no idea until when I will remain a boxing scribe. ?I love the sport, but sorry I don?t do articles for money? is my usual response to websites who offer me opportunities to write exclusively for them.
There was not a day I?m not busy. My duties and responsibilities as a businessman, author, artist and ministry servant won?t even allow me to engage in internet social networking sites. That?s why I consider such ?milestone? in communication to be pleasurable only to those who have the luxury of time to play with time. I would rather spend moments with my family and be in touch with real people than let moments pass me by, accomplishing nothing really worthwhile in front of a gadget for long hours.
The only obsession I have is the Bible and my intimate, loving relationship with Jesus Christ. ?Only one life, how soon it will pass; only what?s done for Christ will last.?
God bless po!
