When Filipino's happen...

It cost me $49.99. It ended 2:59 into the second round. It was worth every penny.
Watching Manny Pacquiao, right now, aged 30, with it all clicking, is like watching Michael Jordan go for 41 a game in the Finals against the Suns in 1993. It's like watching Babe Ruth club 60 homers in 1927, more than any other single team hit that season. It's like watching Tiger Woods win the 2001 Masters, completing the "Tiger Slam."
We get to see a historically significant boxer, athlete, and A-list entertainer, during a period when few will ever match his prowess -- his natural ability meeting halfway with his learned skills, a simultaneous happening of physical superiority peaking and years of practice and fine-tuning culminating.
A great star at his greatest.
For the second consecutive bout, Pacquiao turned a supposed super-fight into a mismatch, demolishing Ricky Hatton in slightly less than two rounds. Now, some are beginning to wonder if we are not witnessing potentially the best pound-for-pound fighter ever.
A clash looms between him and a recently un-retired assassin, in which a Pacman victory could answer the question definitively.
What happened Saturday night was brilliant, something I'll never forget, but we must consider all of this on a much grander scale.
When Pacquiao first entered the pro ranks, he was a dazzling raw talent but not a particularly technical or versatile fighter.
Eight years of tutelage from trainer Freddie Roach (the Phil Jackson to his MJ), however, have turned him into an all-around dynamo.
"The Coach" has helped improve Manny's defense (specifically his head movement, now stellar) and diversify his punch selection. In addition, his power has followed him as he has moved up through the weight classes, and with Saturday's victory over Hatton, he is now only the second ever six-division title-holder (joining Oscar De la Hoya), and the first ever four-time Ring Magazine champion
