The legend of Manny Pacquiao continued to grow on Saturday night at Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas as the Pacman added a world title in his fourth weight division. Pacquiao (47-3-2, 35 KOs) dethroned WBC lightweight titleholder David Diaz (34-2-1, 17 KOs) via ninth round KO in a brilliant display. Pacquiao was much quicker as he outpunched and outboxed the naturally bigger man. Diaz was busted up by Pacman’s sharp punching and it was target practice by round five. The gutsy Diaz kept coming, however, until Pacquiao floored him in the ninth to end it. Time was 2:24.

Mabuhay ka Manny “PACMAN” Paquiao!!! Nabigyan mo na naman ng karangalan ang Sambayanang Pilipino sa iyong pagkapanalo kay David “Dangerous Diaz” noong June 29,2008 at makuha ang titulong WBC lightweight champion of the World at unang asianong naging kampeon sa apat (4) na magkakaibang dibisyon. At kamakailan ay itinalaga ni PGMA na Ambassador sa darating na Beijing Olympics. Isa kang tunay na Buhay na Bayani!

Approve ba sa inyo ang proposed Pambansang Kamao Five (P5) Peso Bill? OK’S ba?
