Manny Superlatives


One can make a case for David Diaz being overmatched. Maybe, but he was a world champion so that has to count. Emphasis on was.

Manny Pacquiao was simply awesome. He is the scourge of Mexican boxing where he has been taking names as a result, he is now and forevermore el terrible, dangerous, and dinamita all rolled into one. Though he can never be called the baby-faced assassin. Pacman is fine, thank you.

Manny Pacquiao is about dreams of glory and in a bleak time of never-ending price increases and disasters. He's exploits may be in the ring but he does more than that. And he has the right amount of compassion for what boxer have you seen tries to help up the fallen?

He may not be perfect but he is awesome.

Man, he met the Boston Celtics. Damn.
