    It's because they were following the Manny Pacquiao career blueprint. When they should have been thinking that MP isnt your regular, run of the mill fighter.

    "Well, Manny fought for the championship at 19 years of age and he won. I think (insert young ALA gym boxer here) can do it too."

    I doesnt always work that way, guys.

    Proximity wise? i dont think it will ever happen. But the good news is, more and more managers and promoters are frequenting the country looking for a talent they might wanna promote.

    Does Nonito Donaire count? Last time I checked he's from California born and raised... I'm just bringing this up because you don't see Mexicans bragging about De La Hoya, Ortiz or even Arreola and claiming them as their own.

    How do Filipinos view Donaire?

    Born in Bohol, Philippines, and raised here until he was 11 years old, if I'm not mistaken.

    Migrated to the US before he became a teenager.

    We like him. Cool, laid back guy.

    Both his parents are Filipinos. He claims and embraces his roots as a pinoy. Wont you be proud? We support our countrymen no matter where they're born, as long as they want to represent the country.
