Paquiao's fight is a Philippine holiday! :)

haha you got that right doncruise21! the news even said that it would be a national catastrophe if the rotating black out would occur today! haha Pacman's fight is my father's favorite time... No matter what he does he would stop to watch every punch of manny. he is an all time fan, and a pacman addict... he told us before, that no matter how strong or big manny's foe would be, he would still be on his side. "pilipino tayo, edi dun tayo sa pilipino". my dad won 2 times after placing a bet, with my uncle, under manny, one with ricky H. the other with cotto. He was always confident of his triumph. hehe i wonder if he could still watch right now... To your question, well, all in front of the TV waiting for the referee to declare his win and all day long for several weeks, the topic of conversations would be manny! haha... still hoping for his fight with mayweather though... ^_^

You got that right, when manny is fighting its as if the whole country is mezmerized by those quick punches of his. Most jeepney drivers park their vehicles so that they can watch, result is the road is free even for turtles to roam lol.Even those pickpockets watch so vigorously that they are forgettin their role as a pickpocket another lol.In return the crime rate in manila or in any other places in the philippines is if not zero almost zero. Just expect a couple or more cases of heart attacks though, maybe too much excitement is going on thats why ;)

Oh yeah!! That is called the Pacquiao Phenomenon! It really is amazing that the whole country stops when he fights and is really focus on one thing. Trying to know if he wins or not. Well what I usually do is to try to stop also and watch it. Although boxing is not my fave sport to watch since I find it rather violent but when Pacquiao fights I am transformed into a boxing fanatic and enjoy his fighting and is ecstatic as everyone else when fighting goes on.

well its just amazing...zero crime rate. It means the whole country stops,just to watch manny pacquiao's fight. Well that is weird but that's good. I just watched his fight today. Every time manny pacquiao will have a fight,me and my family are waiting for that day to watch and cheer for him.

I love it when Manny has his match because the main streets hardly had cars. No traffic whatsoever. The usual one-hour drive can be done in less than 30 minutes. Driving heaven. If possible, I hope Manny has his match every single day to relieve stress-driving

I totally agree with you doncruise21! Manny Pacquaio is one of the reason why I love being a Filipino. Just like everybody else I watched every Pacquiao's fight eagerly, waiting for another victory, not just for him but also the whole country and for the fans of the so-called "sweet science". Hope Mayweather "the trashtalker" will be his next opponent.
