Ive heard Pac could run for president of his island but in PR Cotto is a big star who means more to there island?
Pac is like Michael Jordan over there. Tito is like Michael Jordan in Puerto....Cotto is like Bryant, may be just as good but will never be as loved.
Well cosidering the Phillipines has about 100,000 million people or more. Plus a 1,000 islands. I will say no, but Puerto Rico loves Tito just like Mexicans love Chavez. How the English love hATTON AND HOW BLACKS LOVE Tyson, Ali, SRL, Jones, and Holyfield
well, philippines is bigger and has about 100x more population than P.R but not everyone in the philippines loves pac, a lot of women i know don't like him
Pac is bigger for the simple reason that Puerto Ricans produce more champions on a consistant basis. PacMan has made his name fighting worn fighters, and lost, IMO, to the only real "fresh" Mexican fighter in Juan Manuel Marquez. That is why Filipinos are crazy about PacMan. It will be quite a while (10-30 years) before they have another fighter like him. Cotto, on the other hand, had the bad luck in coming after Tito, and not being as devastating as Tito.
Dont believe everything you hear. He's an inspiration to his countrymen, but they dont really treat him like a god. More like a rock star or a typical famous athlete.
Hate to **** on your parade for a technicallity but the Philippines are an archepelago not an island.
