    So for many of us Pac-man was a bit of a surprise star... I'm still shocked at how he bombarded Julio. I think he put him out of boxing, or top contendership for anything... it was that brutal a 2 round fight! Poor guy... he had just won that title as well!!

    Pac-Morales I, had a party full of Filipinos at my house for the fight. Everybody was depressed after the fight lol, but everyone knew that Pac tried his hardest and put on a great show.

    I was a fan of Ledwaba. Ledwaba was very impressive when he fought 2 or 3 fights before he met Pac. Ledwaba was pure technical, great speed, excellent jabs... until he met Pac. I started watching Pac fights since then.

    I watched him on Blow by Blow in da pelepens, and I didnt even tried to know who he fought. I was watching Onyok's Olympic stint when I saw this yellow midget on TV. And guess what, I watched his first fight on my neighbor's house.

    I also saw Pac's alleged "huramentado" on one of the Videoke Bars (in Gensan) on TV.

    First saw him at a local mall. Metropolis at Alabang I think.
    It was one of his early fights, can't remember who it was.

    But it was a quick KO/TKO.
    I was instantly a fan.

    the Ledwaba fight, it got some press here in the Philippines since it was his 1st fight in the US so me and my friends made sure to watch the fight.
