GMA7, Solar Sports could just be using Manny Pacquiao’s fight for Ad returns

I’ve written so many times before about the annoying and lengthy ad placements they put on Manny Pacquiao’s fights and they never listened. Why would they bother anyway?

At least I’ve tried my best to give them some options to get their coverage of the fight better and more favorable to the fans.

  • Insert the commercials every two rounds of the fight will be an improvement.
  • Keep the ads all over the screen leaving at least 1/4th of the screen for the fight could be a better option. They’re after the returns after all.
  • Since they are very proud to announce that they are the official media partner of the fight, they can offer the fight for free. Not a good option for them, but the bottom line is that they must deliver the fight to the public in a favorable 2-way benefit. Whatever!

So they did not listen and now people are annoyed. They just broke the heart of the million fans of Manny Pacquiao yesterday. [Inquirer]

Pacquiao takes Hatton in the 2nd Round

Ricky Hatton chose the perfect place to lay himself on.

Ricky Hatton chose the perfect place to lay himself on.


Manny Pacquiao once again proved that he’s not just a boxer but a very good boxer. Pacquiao dominated over Ricky Hatton from the start of Round 1, giving a countless number of fatal blows, two of which made the British fighter kissed the canvas.

Now, Pacquiao didn’t just proved that he’s a better boxer, but also told his opponent that being strong and durable of punches cannot win over him. Ricky Hatton is often known for his agressiveness and ability to take powerful punches from his opponents and be able to win in the end, but this time he ate too much than he could chew which is bad. Hatton ended up lying right in the middle of the ring after taking the most tasteful punch from Pacquiao in round 2.

He could have lasted up to round 3 if he just covered himself in the last seconds instead of fighting back. But then, he will still lose.

Manny Knocks Out a Sparring Mate

manny sparring

In the photo is Manny Pacquiao's sparring mate from Glendale California after receiving a lightning punch straight on his left eye.

The best pound for pound boxer, Manny Pacman Pacquiao, is again on for another fight on May 2 with the British’s best Ricky Hatton. As early as the fight was announced, there were already arguments on who’s gonna be left standing on the ring. Is it gonna be Pacquiao or Hatton?

Ricky Hatton is known for his fast punches and brawler attitude that maybe intimidate his opponents a lot and cause his win. But Pacquiao is also a brawler and a wiser boxer than Hatton. Strength-wise, we can never tell who’s much stronger, but Pacquiao is tested to last all 12 rounds without catching his breath. I’m not sure about Ricky Hatton but as far as I know, (and i don’t know anything), he seems to get tired while the rounds get higher.

To be honest, I see Pacquiao winning this fight, and it’s gonna be a nightmare for Hatton just like De La Hoya’s.

Again, I’m not telling that Manny will surely win, but let’s take this his fight against De La Hoya for consideration. I know DLH is too old.
