Manny Pacquiao vs Brandon Rios in Macau

Image
This is one of the most exciting event this year after Yolanda tragedy. Manny "Pacman" Pacquiao dedicated this fight for his fellow Filipinos and victims of the said killer typhoon. Few days ago, I saw a 'news confrontation' of the boxers' coaches, and tension rises... [caption id="attachment_8514" align="aligncenter" width="448"] I don't have a photo with Manny but here's a collectible :)[/caption] According to Freddie Roach, Manny trained so well and his intensity to fight is really high. I've read that this is his first major international fight to be held in Macau (Sand's Venetian) which is one of the most famous gambling destination in Asia.

I get easily tripped when getting down long stairs that's why I hate riding MRTs or taking the stairs. The last time I joined this tree planting project in Antipolo (Philippines), my knees were shaking while we walked through the side mountains.
