                    [Summary] => 



In some contests where victory or defeat depends on the decisions of judges like boxing bouts, the protagonist who wants to win sees to it that his victory is clear cut by showing much superior skills as to leave the judges no other choice but give him the nod. Knocking out the opponent in the ring is of course the surest way to leave no room for doubt in the minds of judges. A knockout even convinces the opponent that he lost to the better man. This is just what Pacquiao did to Morales via a 3rd round knockout.

And there is only one Union Bank branch to serve the hundreds of thousands of GSIS members of Bacolod and nearby areas! Several teachers had been to the bank as much as four times in the past two weeks with no success.

                    [Summary] => LAS VEGAS — It was Manny Pacquiao’s wife Jinkee who hit the nail on the head in predicting her husband would knock out Erik Morales in the 10th round. 


Jinkee watched nervously at ringside beside Macy Pineda and Joanna Ramos as Pacquiao came from behind to score the crushing win over the Mexican who had never been stopped before.


Morales led on points in the three judges scorecards after five rounds.  Paul Smith and Jerry Roth had it 48-47 and Dave Moretti, 49-46.  All three judges gave rounds three, four and five to Morales.

For a street somewhere in Rizal that usually go abuzz with almost everything on a weekend, life just came screeching to a halt.


"Usually, you would hear the noise of tricycle engines a lot on a Sunday, but today (yesterday), it was just peculiarly quiet," said Johnny, who has a small vulcanizing shop right beside a busy street in a town of San Mateo, in Filipino.

These were the exact words of Freddie Roach when he and Manny Pacquiao generously faced mediamen, mostly foreign, before they staged a light workout at the IBA Gym here Tuesday morning.


Roach, who has trained Pacquiao since the Filipino banger started fighting here in the US in 2001, said he is confident that his ward has what it takes to stop Mexico’s Erik Morales this time.

                    [Summary] => LAS VEGAS — It was Manny Pacquiao’s wife Jinkee who hit the nail on the head in predicting her husband would knock out Erik Morales in the 10th round. 


Jinkee watched nervously at ringside beside Macy Pineda and Joanna Ramos as Pacquiao came from behind to score the crushing win over the Mexican who had never been stopped before.


Morales led on points in the three judges scorecards after five rounds.  Paul Smith and Jerry Roth had it 48-47 and Dave Moretti, 49-46.  All three judges gave rounds three, four and five to Morales.

                    [Summary] => Work, life and everything else stopped for millions of Filipinos who watched the Manny Pacquiao-Erik Morales fight.


For a street somewhere in Rizal that usually go abuzz with almost everything on a weekend, life just came screeching to a halt.


"Usually, you would hear the noise of tricycle engines a lot on a Sunday, but today (yesterday), it was just peculiarly quiet," said Johnny, who has a small vulcanizing shop right beside a busy street in a town of San Mateo, in Filipino.

                    [Summary] => LAS VEGAS — Revenge will be sweet.


These were the exact words of Freddie Roach when he and Manny Pacquiao generously faced mediamen, mostly foreign, before they staged a light workout at the IBA Gym here Tuesday morning.


Roach, who has trained Pacquiao since the Filipino banger started fighting here in the US in 2001, said he is confident that his ward has what it takes to stop Mexico’s Erik Morales this time.
