  • Welcome back to Boxing After Dark! Today, we journey back to the year 2002, a time long before Manny Pacquiao's epic battles with Morales, Bradley, and Juan Manuel Marquez. Back when Manny was just emerging as a new face in the USA, a defining statement would need to be made

    I met pacquiao in 2010 at a hotel in Manila. My friend went up to him in his private dining room and asked if an American fan could meet him. I was shocked that he allowed me to come in, introduce myself, take a photo, and chat for a bit. We actually had a mutual friend. A really nice guy and a moment I’ll never forget.

    I was fortunate enough to be in the Philippines when Pacquiao had a fight . There was T.V's on the streets , hundreds watching , cars blowing their horns etc . The Country was almost at a standstill . He won as usual and what he did for his Country and it's people was lovely to see . Everyone from the the very rich to the very poor got a lift , and were proud of their Boxer and their Country , and rightly so .

    Favorite Pacquiao fight is Pac vs Margarito. Not only did he beat a much bigger guy who was seen as a boogeyman at the time, he beat the living hell out of him to the point where he was begging the referee to show his opponent mercy. Absolute beatdown. I'm sad that Pac retired on a loss, but he had one of the greatest careers of any boxer, especially in the modern era. Total legend.

    He was called the "people's champ", the home country cheered for every punch at every bar, our living rooms were full of close relatives whenever he's fighting, watching the TV intensely. The schools would have no classes for the day as if the nation was at a national holiday, Filipinos were never been more unified and praying for his victory. For anyone who wasn't able to watch, the first questions to another would always be "Has Pacquiao won?" It was a glorious time, it felt like a golden era for the Philippines whenever he fought in his prime. There has never been another champ after him, hopefully, someday I'll see the living rooms full of family and friends watching in a festive mood for someone again.

    I went to Manny's last pro fight in Vegas when he fought Ugas.. not the outcome we expected but to be in the presence of a GOAT during his walkout was incredible and made it all worth it despite the outcome!

    I am glad to be a witness of his era. It was the great old days in the Philippines when everyone in the community was tuned in to his fights, people will gather together to set up a view for everyone to see, in my case it was a family affair at the house where everyone is excited and very nervous at the same time waiting for the fight to start.
    I remember in the earlier fights, I was so annoyed by those spoilers who got their feeds from radio, because tv broadcasts we're so delayed with all the advertising exploits. However, this changed a bit when pay-per-view and online streamers of the fights became a thing.
