Another honor for the country. Pacman beated Clottey in a unanimous decision over a 12-round fight last March 14 (Manila time).
We decided to witness this supposed memorable event at the Araneta Coliseum. We got tickets for the Upper Box A at Php530 each (Thanks Gie and Pipo for buying them for us!). We a had a great view of the big screen and again had a chance to view Pacman's fight with thousand others at the same time.
The fight was a bore. Pacman just kept giving punches at Clottey and the latter just stood there defending himself. Even if Manny gave more blows to his opponent, just basing on their faces after the fight, Manny looked more beaten up. We were joking that Clottey might have had the blood of a Rhino and an Elephant. Lakas ng katawan! LOL!
Here are some of the pictures of the fight and the coliseum.
