Thursday, June 26. 2008Manny Pacquiao: A mutant? I don't know how he does it, he just does. I'm beginning to think that Manny Pacquiao is an alien, a mutant of some kind. He doesn't seem to tire and his body performs well beyond what we consider normal.  Today, it was the intense heat that was getting to us. Even early in the morning the sun's rays were as harsh as could be. Later in the afternoon, during Manny's workout at the exclusive IBA Gym, the heat was so intense that it felt like we were stuck in an oven. But Manny kept on going. Unfazed by the HOT Las vegas weather. He told us that he had prepared in advance and had "acclimatized to the temperature".  Manny and his rival David Diaz were both given the ceremonial welcome ceremonies at the Mandalay Bay Hotel. Both boxers drove up in a stretched limo - arriving about an hour apart, before being whisked away to the Mandalay Events Center (where the fight takes place this week) for an informal chat with members of the press.  A couple of days ago Manny noted that David was unlike other Mexican boxers he had been pitted against who would make sensational, sometimes unforgiving statements, even before the fight. David said something to the same effect, saying that both of them are humble and not the type to talk trash. Instead he told the press to expect both of them to get down to business once they get into the ring. We had a little one-on-one with David during the media presentation. Diaz told us he has friends who are Filipinos and are fans of Pacquiao. "Hopefully they will cheer for me," he said. Both Manny and David seem to be in good spirits. They are both nice people that I wouldn't wish a knockout on any one of them. But I kind of get the feeling that Manny needs to win convincingly this time around. I think it is what Pinoy fans are looking forward to. There's no telling how the fight will end, but odds are in favor of Manny. Trackbacks

 If Manny Pacquiao could surpass the dog, for sure Pacman would do the same on Diaz.Lethal Combination indeed... Good Luck&God Bless to Manny Pacquiao. Pacman you are the best inside and out. yey! win by KO ni Pacman
Hoorah!Congratulations to Manny Pacquiao I even thinked of that one I do agree of that thing I've watched several of his matches but I also do noticed even though he had recieved so many punches or alot prespiration in practices it's really unbelievable of how great is his tolerance in pain or somewhat tiredness. but i really don't think being a mutant i what manny is he just overcomed natural human strength and abilities. . . well i know it is really hard for a 12 year old kid like me to think this deep and affect other people's lives.
