What matters most: Manny did his best


10:51 pm | Wednesday, December 19th, 2012

As a boxing fan, I am proud that Manny Pacquiao did a good job in his fourth fight with Juan Manuel Marquez even though he lost.  Pacquiao admitted his carelessness, which is very unpretentious for him to say. What I like is he said that he did his best, which is what is important.

That was the fourth time he fought Marquez, and every time he never failed to make me feel excited. Even though he was knocked out, I will always be a proud Filipino.
