    He says he knew there was a leak in camp and that Floyd had knowledge on what he was doing.

    The Filipino language is certainly an interesting one. They seem to throw English phrases into their own dialogue, more so than any other that I've heard.

    Pacquiao seems to think he's been stitched up

    I'm not sure the English thing is the way Filipinos talk, or just the way Pacquiao. TAgalog is more similar to Spanish than it is to English

    Taglish is quite common in the ph. Most people talk that way there. I believe though that English is what they primarily use in the education system though, or middle to upper tier schools.

    Taglish is super common. I don't think English is primarily used but it is definitely very common. It's a bit of a status symbol the more English you use. You'll see a lot of celebrities use a lot of English. Most of the younger generations will understand English.
