Floyd Mayweather Sr. trash talking never ends

Well, I just found this from youtube and it seems Floyd Mayweather Sr. trash talking will never end. I bet if Manny Pacquiao still manage to win over to his son Floyd Mayweather Jr. he will still blabber and rant about “How Manny Pacquiao got lucky with that lucky punch”. He’s just a sore looser, and never accepts things and will always have himself blabber that this is because this and this is because that… you get my point?

He never runs out of excuses.

Martin Nievera entering a new mess, Ryan Cayabyab’s pre-adviced to him came true

Ryan Cayabyab is one of the Philippines’ finest musician and artist, who adviced Martin Nievera to sing the National Anthem in its correct way. Ryan Cayabyab said that if he didn’t, you’ll be crucifed (metaphorically speaking) when you get back.

Ryan Cayabyab comment’s that it not a solo performance. Filipino supporters in Las Vegas MGM Gran

Now Martin Nievera has been criticized (even charged of violence of Republic Act (RA) 8491 by a congressman). With the NHI or National Historical Institute who was the first to point out Martin’s doing, this may really come to conclusion of Martin Nievera facing the court.

Meanwhile, Manny Pacquiao defends Martin Nievera, he said to let him be and forget the matter.

National Historical Institute are being hypocrites to the old tradition

When Martin Nievera was asked to do the task of singing the Philippine National Anthemin the Pacquiao-Hatton fight. NHI or the National Historical Institute once again critical and furious of how the way it was sang in international events that were aired in TV and radio.

NHI chairman Ambeth Ocampo said that despite repeated reminders, some singers continue to make adjustments to the anthem which is not an ordinary piece of music open to free interpretation. NHI also criticized the renditions of singers Kyla, Lani Misalucha, Sarah Geronimo  and Bituin Escalante in the past.

Martin Nievera refuses to say sorry on the idea of he can’t apologize to something that he was not sorry for.

Well, for me aren’t NHI being hypocrite? I mean, c’mon guys its been ages already that our culture is nothing more than stories for academic historical books. Even the government itself doesn’t really bother about it. I’m not siding with Martin Nievera, I think he sucked when he sang it. All other countries, in my opinion already have made changes of the way their national anthem is sang. From my point of view before you (NHI) make this kind of “hustle”, why not focus on what really “is happening”. Even in schools you can’t see the “Filipino culture” anymore. We have too many cultures and too many differences to make it stay in our hearts.

A documentary by Howie Severino “Lukayo: Hindi ito bastos” (Lukayo: This is not obscene) who was suspended by making the said documentary for its obscene content because this Filipino folk culture involves making wooden penises and women imatating to masterbate it. The concept of this folk culture is that “Lukayo”, descendants of the ancient “babaylanes” (priestesses), who bless newlyweds with a fertile union by dancing around them, singing bawdy songs and brandishing wooden phalluses (penis, dick what ever you call them).

Howie Severino was suspended by MTRCB Chair Marissa Laguardia chided “I-Witness” for showing exaggerated large phalluses/penis and masturbation which (in her opinion) do not fall within G and PG classification.

Its a big WTF for me, kids get to see almost naked girls every afternoon in Wowowie, even Willie Revillame got a hard on dick as far as I remember in Calendar Girl. Yet no suspension for the said show?

No new swine flu cases in Asia as of now, but real pigs are alerted to keep them away from being infected humans

It was recently reported that no new confirmed cases of swine flu since Sunday, it may be an indication of the virus’s slowly spreading. On the other hand, 350 people are still in quarantine in a downtown Hong Kong hotel as a precaution.

Mexico, where the disease first originated indicates that the epidemic was easing too, still we can’t let our guard down and be very careful. Its because the virus has killed 19 people already in Mexico and 1 in America, and there are still hundreds sickened by the virus.

Now, there is a new issue regarding H1N1 (swine) flu, In San Fernando, Pampanga, Philippines – it’s the pigs’ turn to be protected from humans and the virus itself. As a precaution, for not to spread the Influenza A (H1N1) virus in the country.

‘Keep the infected human away from the pigs’

I couldn’t agree well, Pampanga is well known for its pig meat products like Mekeni and Pampanga’s Best. I savor tocino, longganisa and all those tasty Pampanga pork products.

Chief of the Regulatory Division of the Department of Agriculture (DA), Dr. Romeo Manalili in Central Luzon said yesterday that local officials to quarantine humans with flu symptoms from backyard pigpens and commercial hog farms.

The World Health Organization (WHO) said yesterday that 20 countries have officially reported 985 cases of Influenza A (H1N1) infection.

Mexico, still suffering from the said plague (popularly known as swine flu) has reported 590 laboratory-confirmed human cases of infection, this includes 25 deaths already.

The United States with its 226 laboratory report, officially confirmed human cases, with one death.

“Mexico’s fatal flu is in human, not in swine” said Manalili which is actually true contradicting the belief that it came from swine. This is mainly because of the popular name of the Influenza A (H1N1) virus, the “swine flu”. Again, this virus is actually consist of the 3 virus strain of the human, swine, and bird flu virus.

“So we have to protect our pigs,” said Manalili.

In Pandi, Bulacan few months ago, at least 6,000 pigs that were infected with the Ebola reston virus were killed and cremated.

At least 6,000 pigs that were infected with the Ebola reston virus were killed and cremated in Pandi, Bulacan a few months ago. The pigs in the Pandi farm were initially quarantined to prevent their contact with humans as well as other pigs before authorities decided to destroy them to prevent the spread of the disease.

On the other hand, filipinos aren’t scared to eat Lechon Baboy (Roast Pig on a bamboo stick). Lydia De Roca, 62 years of age and owner of Lydia’s Lechon said that they are not affected by H1N1 flu because they know that it is not related at all with eating with their product.

De La Hoya ate his own words when he said “Mayweather Sr. is the better coach than roach”

Oscar De La Hoya once said that Mayweather Sr. is a better coach than Roach, even now as I can see like Juan Manuel Marquez couldn’t accept the fact that Manny Pacquiao defeated them all. If you watched Pacquiao-De La Hoya bout, when he was approached by Coach Freddie Roach, he utterly said to Roach that he is not “in” for today.

Basically speaking he’s not in top shape for the fight. Everybody else saying that he’s dehydrated, that he could or should have won anyhow. Oscar said that he wasn’t at his best because he was weight drained and weak. Then why you didn’t prepare much further at all? In boxing, this aren’t acceptable reasons of a lost. You enter the ring with you all.

Oscar, was even present in the Pacquiao-Hatton bout. I say, stop whinning and be a man. Accept the reality and if you really believe you’re not in top shape? Why not work your way out to fight again with Manny?

Now Juan Manuel Marquez, even wants revenge. It will come to reality but he have to beat Floyd Mayweather Jr. on July. I think teaming up with Mayweather Sr. thought you not to accept losses. C’mon bro, Manny Pacquiao had 3 losses before. He worked his way up not to kiss the canvass anymore. C’mon think about it, if you manage to defeat Manny Pacquiao you will be a Boxing Legend instantly.

Oscar De La Hoya spout those words that Mayweather Sr. is a better coach than Freddie Roach in an interview with Sky Sports. C’mon dawg aren’t you just upset with Roach who was your previous trainer? You just pick Mayweather Sr. as a trainer because his trained his son Floyd Mayweather Jr. was unbeatable? Can you even think that Mayweather Jr. was unbeatable because all who stand against him are just wussies?

“I have to take my hat off to Ricky “Hitman” Hatton for picking Floyd Mayweather Sr. because that was the best thing he could do.”

I don’t think so bub.

Oscar went on to pick the Hitman to win by late knockout over Pacquiao. I just hoped you didn’t bet big :)

De La Hoya predicts that Hatton can win by presuring Pacquiao, using his jab to wear Pacquiao down. Jab? C’mon, Hatton is much of a sloppy sluggish slugger when he heats his head than Manny. He point it out  again that when he fought Manny and lost by an 8th round stoppage in December 2008, he wasn’t at his best because he was weight drained and weak. He sees Hatton last weak to be the “real deal” for Manny.

Pacquiao has little experience against larger fighters like Hatton, and the only fight that Pacquiao has at this level, an 8th round win over De La Hoya, hardly counts because of De La Hoya’s poor conditioning that he was in for the fight.

Yeah, I know that’s not Pacquiao’s fault. Pacquiao did what he was supposed to do by taking advantage of De La Hoya’s weight drained body and beat him. However, my point is that Pacquiao won’t have that same luck tomorrow night and will be facing a fighter in Hatton that is fighting at his normal weight and who will be much bigger, stronger and aggressive than any fighter that Pacquiao has ever faced before in his career.

Another whinning here.

This is why I agree with De La Hoya’s prediction. Hatton will be knocking Pacquiao out tomorrow night and he’s going to shock the world in the process. Right now, not too many people are picking Hatton to win against Pacquiao, but boy are they going to be wrong.

Hatton isn’t just going to win, I see him destroying Pacquiao with power shots and making him look like a fighter that doesn’t belong at light welterweight. In fact, Pacquiao doesn’t belong at this weight, but after tomorrow night it will be academic.

This is just too good to be true, and your prediction is reverse. Way too far from it, Manuel Perez, like what I always said. Manny Pacquiao is always a work in progress. And if you all wanted for revenge, he still available and far from retirement.

Upcoming boxing predictions, Floyd Mayweather Jr. vs Juan Manuel Marquez

Floyd Mayweather Jr. officially announced in the same day of the bout of “The Battle of East and West” that he will be returning to the ring. Floyd Mayweather Jr. the son of Ricky Hatton’s coach, Floyd Mayweather Sr., will be fighting Juan Manuel Marquez as his return debut to the ring will be on July 18, 2009. Floyd Mayweather Jr. was a pound for pound superstar and his old nemesis Juan Manuel Marquez (who was defeated also by Manny Pacquiao) will be tough fight. Juan Manuel Marquez is eager for revenge after his upset fight with Manny Pacquiao over split decision. And Manny Pacquiao turned down Juan Manuel Marquez for the rematch with $6 million guranteed for the fight. Richard Schaefer, of the Golden Boy Promotions CEO who had made this offer. Bob Arum said that it should lay low for awhile, but for Pacquiao’s part said that the business is over because he plans to move up to the lightweight division.

It was very controversial fight even for some Filipino boxing analyts saying Marquez should be the winner.

Now both boxers have tremendous grunge and both wants revenge. Floyd Mayweather Jr. for saving his father’s chit-chatter-box, trash-talking mouth and Juan Manual Marquez for his controversial loss with Manny Pacquiao.

I’d say, 60-40 for this one. 60 for Marquez and 40 for Floyd Mayweather Jr. to loss the fight. Why? Because sometimes clean record of no loss doesn’t mean you are vulnerable in lossing. Just like what happened with Ricky “Hitman” Hatton. Manny Pacquiao already have 3 losses and never kissed the canvass ever since. With pure determination and geniune work etiquette, he is where he is now. Now, Juan Manual Marquez grunge is much bigger than Floyd Mayweather Jr. and that is where I based my odds in.

But, like what Manny Pacquiao said during their weight-in with Ricky Hatton. Only God knows who will win the fight.

Outbound Pinay workers advised to refrain from sexual activity, either safe sex or no sex at all

It was advised to Filipina overseas workers that are about to be deployed aboard to have no sexual activity at least two months prior to their departure, or face the consequence of being sent back home upon arrival in the Middle East if found to be pregnant in their destination countries.

According to a recent meeting with a group of agencies sending OFWs to the Middle East. Dr. Rodolfo Punzalan, president of GCC Accredited Medical Clinics Association Center or GAMCA said cases of repatriated female OFWs are now in the top list of repatriated workers due to illness, diseases and pregnancies.

What happened to the steps of undergoing medical checkup to acquire medical certificates?

Dr. Punzalan requested the agencies sending female workers to take all necessary steps and precautions, also to give warning to the female applicants/workers to not to engage in any sexual congress, they have to sacrifice romantic interludes with their husbands or boyfriends to avoid “unwanted” pregnancies.

“If sexual activity cannot be restrained then safe sex should be practiced with the use of condoms or during the infertile or safe periods. This is no guarantee of course however the chances of pregnancies is diminished with the use of a condom,” Punzalan said in a statement.

Then how about the religious sector’s fight against condoms :)

With the current rising number of cases of female workers being sent back is a cause for alarm for the GAMCA clinics. The GCC Health Ministries has imposed US$2,000 fine for GAMCA clinics members for every repatriated Pinoy OFW due to negligence on their part in the medical examination for the OFW.

Wow, two grand, I hope this is not less for if this will not be implemented properly. This will be another source of corruption and all those under-the-table-payups bs will soon arise. For this will really alarm OFW female workers.

Punzalan said that, however, in all cases of pregnant workers repatriated they will be investagation. The agency involved to ferret out the truth on when and where the worker had any sexual activity before departure.

Dr. Punzalan said that some workers even on the day of departure cannot control themselves and initiate sex with their partners.

Pregnancies cannot be detected by a mere blood or urine test one or two days before departure, so its hard to make necessary precaution like a pre-departure exam for the female workers. The pregnancy will only be verified within five weeks and this is the time wherein physical and emotional signs arise start for the pregnant woman.

So Dr. Punzalan advised “The final word is control yourself or return to the Philippines pregnant ripped with the idea of giving your family a good opportunity in life. Remember to celibate so that you can reap your rewards afterwards”
