It was a very interesting and exciting boxing game that was televized live on Saturday, December 6, 2008. Once again, Pacquiao, considered as living hero in the Philippines, had proven to the entertainment world that he is the best pound for pound fighter, by defeating the legendary Dela Hoya who did not continue the fight in round nine.
The Filipino boxer cleary outbox, outspeed, and outwit the Mexican boxer. This has added to the list of Mexican victims of the "Mexicutioner" (Pacquiao's new alias aside from the popular Pacman). The win is a very invaluable christmas present of Manny to Filipinos and more specially to her loving and beautiful wife, Jinkee, who is expected to give birth next month.
Dela Hoya's height, arms length, and experience advantages did not matter at all. The younger Filipino boxer prevailed against the rusty, slow, slim, and older Mexican fighter who made his first come back fight since 2007. It was a very different Golden boy I saw struggling his way out. The non-title fight was the fight for the money and fame.
Congratulations Pacman and to the Filipinos!!!
