Boxing World Cup Was A Set Up !!!

no doubt from the late 60's onwards, mexico has become a virtual factory for world boxing champs. it really helps that your country shares a common border with the US, boxing's acknowledged mecca.

but this doesn't detract from the fact that the philippines has a rich tradition and history in boxing despite its disadvantage in geographical location.

 

Do you mean you got banned at Pac's website?

Stupid, immature post. Domingo you and Bigtime9 are meant for eachother. I think if you had both agreed on a common favorite fighter you would have already eloped. :good

 

I got banned there for posting sexy pics... :-(

 

agreed

 

A few overexcited Pinoy posters probably sound like flips. But it's unfortunate that you call Filipinos "flips" as a nationality, because that name really isn't our choice. There have been many educated Filipinos who want to change the name of the country because having been independent for so long, the nation shouldn't be associated anymore with Spain's 17th-century King Philip II. Maybe we should rename the country -- perhaps, what, Pacland? Heh heh.

 

wahahaha!:rofl :rofl

at first i thought this was a serious attempt to educate about philippine history...

 

I don't know what it is with Fidel Castro. Mexico's and PR's example is so clear one cannot understand his agenda. Can't he see how Cubans could be a lot happier if he allowed their boxers freedom to roam the world and realize their potential? Other communist/socialist states do now. Already other neighboring countries such as Haiti and Guyana are also showing up nicely in the boxing scene. Cuban talent is being wasted if it is not allowed to grow beyond the amateur ranks.

 

I only visit that site to get the latest Filipino boxing news.

 

this is as far from the topic as possible

 

Yes, I kinda lost my way. The thread I had in mind was about a World Cup bet. RP and PR. And of course the same idea of a World Cup with a neighboring (to PR, Mex and US) boxing power came to mind -- Cuba. Do you think Casa and those other Cuban talents who have managed to campaign in the international pro ranks are still welcome or treated nicely at home? I wonder.
