    I think he came here as a young boy. He did fight as an Amateur here.

    You can see he really feels Pinoy and wants to be accepted by them as much as pacquiao, however its more likely he will get "the Oscar treatment", Its to bad though because he really wants to be seen as a pinoy.

    If your parents are Filipino, you were born in the Philippines and raised there for the first 10 years of your life then IMO you're Filipino.

    If a war between the two nations happened, would he rather be firing at pinoys or Americans? That's how I figure out the answer to this question.

    Does he willingly eat balut? Does he have a garage piled with balikbayan boxes? Does he dance the same way to every song?
