SCORE: Mexico vs Philippines Rivalry

Take Manny out of there and this ain't even close.:think

Pac truly is one of a kind!

 

yes he is

 

:rofl

Well why is Oscar up there? He wasnt born in mexico atsch

 

The Philippines does not come to close to Mexico's level at the moment. The one thing they have for them is that Manny Pacquiao is a phenom that happens to be born in the islands.

Maybe one day when we can offer up thrilling matchups between Filipinos like the Mexicans did with Barrera-Morales and Vazquez-Marquez can a discussion even begin. Until then, there is simply not enough quality fighters AT THE MOMENT to come close.

In the future? who knows...

 

Agree they are just beginning to pioneer in the sport. Kind of like how Chavez brought many mexicans to the sport but not really because Mexico has almost always had greats. Chavez just made it more popular than it was.

 

if you include marales-jamili, might as well include pacquiao-mira and the luisito espinosa fights with medina, gonzales, espadas and soto

 

yup. before pacquiao, espinosa was carrying the battle for the philippines against mexico's champions.

 

Battle of the 3rd world nations.

 

ouch

 

mexico is ahead..., pacquiao should fight margarito & chavez jr.

 

those third world nations have fighters with hearts bigger than america's debt. if you don't care, stick to watching berto.

 

those 3rd world nation have a boxing hero that never let them down...
