It’s Pacquiao over dela Hoya!

Posted by on Dec 8, 2008 | 4 comments




Isn’t it frustrating to wait for something for sometime only to forget to be there when that something happens? That’s what happened to me and the Pacquiao-dela Hoya boxing match.

I’ve really been looking forward to watching the match. I had the showtimes on local Cambodian channel as well as the cable timeslot memorized but when the day came I’ve been so busy that it literally slipped my mind. When I was about to sleep last night I just suddenly remembered I was supposed to watch it.

Lol! Memory gap? It was already late but I lost no time texting my sister in the Philippines just to know who actually won. Gladly it was the Filipino champion, Mannny Pacquiao who won. Though I kinda feel sad about De la Hoya (I had a huge crush on him when I was a bit younger :P ).


So I did my digging on Youtube to see if there are clips of the fight. I got pretty much irritated coz there are piles of videos there promising full fight etc and you get zilch! What is up with those people? Grrr! Anyway,I hope I could find a decent replay to watch. If you have a link, please share..

Manny Pacquiao did a great job and made the Filipinos proud again. I imagine its like fiesta again in the Philippines, too bad I can’t enjoy it in person :( , Nevertheless, this really made my day. Congrats, Pacman!

    The fight was really a good one for Manny. Unfortunately, I think Oscar has lost his golden hand. He even almost lost his golden face during the fight.

    Kidding aside, I was kind of frustrated about the fight. It was Manny’s show only. Oscar I think did not push his force since the start.

    But of course, I am very proud of Manny.

    hi angel, I got to watch it on replay at last. Yes I agree with you though I am proud of Pacman, it was just disappointing to see De La Hoya not fighting like he used to.

    I guess everyone just has their time.
