Bravo Manny Pacquiao!

Filipinos are beaming with happiness to see Manny Paquiao win over Miguel Cotto---a TKO on the 12th round at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in last Vegas, Nevada last Saturday, November 15, 2007.

“Pacquiao dropped Cotto with a right hand early in the third round, but he wasn't badly hurt and came back to finish the round strong. But after Pacquiao put Cotto on the canvas with a big left hand as Cotto was advancing forward late in the fourth round, the Puerto Rican was never the same again.” AP/Yahoo.news.com (11/15/09, Dahlberg, T.)

The Filipino prizefighter’s unprecedented success robbed his Puerto Rican rival the World Boxing Organization (WBO) welterweight crown, securing his legendary place in sports history. Pacquiao’s amazing victory made him the first to nail a glowing record of seven victories in different weight classes--- an spectacular feat no boxer had achieved before.

"The General Santos City native Pacquiao – who started fighting as a 106-lb in the strawweight division – also holds the International Boxing Organization (IBO) light welterweight crown. He previously ruled the WBC light weight, WBC super featherweight, International Boxing Federation (IBF) super bantamweight, WBC flyweight and RING Magazine’s featherweight divisions."---GMA.newsTV (11/15/09)

No crime during the boxing match?

Forgetting the problems of rough politics, the rebellion in Mindanao and disastrous natural calamities, millions of Filipinos watched and celebrated the grand fight in Manila and all over the world. The thieves, kidnappers, and petty criminals in Manila stopped their trade to watch Pacman. A number of senators and congressmen were warned of coming to Las Vegas, Nevada---as in the past, to watch the game. The same warning was relayed for this match with Cotto.

Though good for Pacquiao, the match with the Filipino boxing hero and Hatton earlier this year, caused more than half (163 absent vs. 100 present) of the legislators to absent themselves from their jobs to watch the fight--- certainly an embarrassment to those who consider public service seriously. (see related blog below.)

To the thrill of his fans who milled in front of TV sets and danced in the streets, Pacquiao used his awesome speed and power to vanquish Cotto. For this match, the popular boxer was said to have earned at least $13 million and his opponent, $7 million.

Ika sanang Namomotan---"No Mas Amor” sa Bikol

8/01/2009 | Posted by Anonymous | Edit Post

Ngonian na nagadan na si Presidente Corazon Aquino, naguiromdoman ko an amiga kong si Joceline Losa Masauding kan Carolina Sur na kan sarong bulan nag-email sakuya. Sabi niya tabangan ko da'a siya maghanap nin Bikol na kanta kan “No Mas Amor”---an madahom na kansiyon na kinakanta ta sa pag-pangadie sa Sagrada Corazon (Sacred Heart.) Sa mati ko, hale sa Sagrada Corazon, an pangaran ni Cory---guikan sa mapag-mo’ot na puso ni Jesu Kristo.

Sa preparasyon kan pangadie para ki Nuestra Senor de Penafrancia sa Charleston ngonian na maabot sa Septiembre, muya ni Joceline na mag-guibo nin bag’ong folyeto nin novena. Sa pag-pugay sa puso ni Jesus, gusto niyang i-ayon an No Mas Amor Que El Tuyo.

No Mas Amor Que El Tuyo

No mas amor que el tuyo
O Corazon divino
El Pueblo Filipino
Te da su Corazon
En templos y en hogares
Te invoque nuestra lengua
Tu reinaras sin mengua
De Aparri hasta Jolo

Coro:
Ha tiempo que esperamos
Tu imperio en el Oriente
La Fe de Filipinas
Es como el sol ardiente,
Como la roca firme
Inmensa como el mar
La iniquidad no puewde
Ser de estas Islas duenas
Que izada en nuestros montes
Tu celestial ensena
Las puertas del infierno
No prevaleceran.

Haloy kaming naghanap kan kantang Bikol na iyan. Maski ang mga pading hinapotan mi, dae aram. Sa kahurian, si Joceline man sana an naka-kua kan hinahanap niya. Sa kabo’otan ni Fr. O. Largoza kan Nabua, Camarines Sur, nataw’an siya nin kopya kan kantang kan sadit pa tanda niya. Dae naghaloy, kan nagbisita si Joceline sa Nueva York kan sarong bulan, kinanta mi ang Bikol na No Mas Amor. Magayonon! (Photo Credit: Inspirational)

Uya tabi an No Mas Amor in Bikol---na satong sa bo’ot na kinakanta para ipagpugay ang kalinigan kan puso ni Jesus.

Ika Sanang Namomotan

Ika sanang Namomotan
O Diosnon na puso
An banwang Pilipino
Dusay sa puso mo
Sa simbahan sa harong man
Dila mi ika ina-arang
Namaghade kang tunay
Sa Aparri sagcod Jolo.

Coro:
Haloy mi nang pinagmawot
Paghade mo sa Siragnan
An Pagtubod niamo
Siring sa mainit na aldaw
Gapo baga kapusog
Dagat baga kahiwas
Di mangyari an karatan
Maghade sa kaporoan
Kun tindog sa Kabukiran
Langitnon mong tanda'an
An bilog na infierno
Di mangyari nanggad. =0=
