MICHAEL MARLEY'S PHILIPPINE DIARY, PART 10:
BEHIND THE WALLS OF THE PACMAN MANSION, INSIDE MP'S BILLIARDS PALACE AND BUSINESS COMPLEX IN GENERAL SANTOS CITY
What did Manny Pacquiao say and when did he say it
And what, pray tell, did Pacman really mean when he allegedly spoke to various people about adjusting blood testing arrangements which will smooth a path to going to contracts on the super bout against undefeated Floyd Mayweather Jr.?
It was a ball of confusion Monday around Pacworld, first at his high-walled and armed-guard-protected mansion and then, as his daily custom, when Megamanny went to the MP commercial complex which includes a sports bar, restaurants, a night club, a printing service and his prize jewel, his lavish billiards facility.
People were running to and fro, debating what, if anything, to read in these supposed remarks as the public fever for the showdown with Mayweather began to boil to a fever pitch.
I went to organ grinder and skipped over a few monkeys, even though as a White Gorilla, I only have love for my jungle cousins.

Before Manny got into his marathon billiard contests, I asked him what his message to Mayweather and the boxing is public.
“My message to Mayweather, to the world, is simple. I am not the lawmaker when it comes to the rules and regulations of any boxing commission. That is not my job or my duty. Neither is it Mayweather's unless he forms his own personal commission.
“I will comply fully with whatever drug test, blood or urine, rules are specified by the commission of the place where this fight is arranged.”
So that means, I said, Pacquiao is presumably licking his chops to see if he can hand slick L'il Floyd his first professional loss. I put a question mark at the end of my meaningful query.
Manny flashed the kid-who-got-the-bicycle-under-the-Christmas-tree, 10,000-megawatt smile.
“Yes, I want Mayweather,” the 31 year old WBO welterweight champion said. “I did not watch the (Shane) Mosley fight live but, when I got up, I looked at some clips on the fight.”
Did Pacman focus on round two, when the nearly-age-40 Mosley hammered Mayweather with a booming right hand, wobbling him and nearly sending him crashing to the canvas?
Now came a 100,000-watt smile, the happy glow of a fierce competitor who concedes victory to no man, be it in billiards, basketball or in the ring.
“I saw that, I did,” Pacquiao said. “If I can hit Mayweather like that, I will finish him off. I would continue the attack in a way that Mosley did not. I will attack until Mayweather is gone.”
The battle cry was spoken matter of factly.
Manny Pacquiao has laid down the gauntlet.
This generation's answer to Robert Duran versus Sugar Ray Leonard will never be more ripe to be made, to negotiated fully and brought to a contract with signatures of the Pinoy Idol and the American superstar attached at the end.
A plague on all their houses, meaning Al Haymon and the Golden Boys for Mayweather and to Bob Arum for Pacman, if they do not strike now while the promotional iron is so hot it is scalding.
Pacman clearly wants the Big Fight. Mayweather seems to be ready to try to rise to his ultimate challenge.
In the words of referee Mills Lane, “Let's get it on!”
I can accept no less, neither should the principals, and neither should you.
Serve us Mayweather-Pacquiao next and serve it piping hot.
Anything else is just warmed-over chopped liver.
You know that.

Manny Villar is a FRAUD.
Manny Pacman is a FRAUD.
Vote the FRAUD Party of the pilipins...tapusin ang kahirapan...(namin)...- Manny
I saw that too when Mosley hit the potato head of Mayweather. He was stunned and at the same time Mosley said... ooops, sorry Floyd... that was not our plan but you carelessly opened up. Anyways... I will give you next round till the end... again, im so sorry and after that... Mosleys hands were down...telling Floyd, hit me... I need money.
i SAW THE FIGHT AND I AM SURE,IT WAS PLANNED TO BE LIKE THAT...MAYWEATHER MUST WIN TO PRESERVE THE RECORD. MOSLEY WAS PAID FOR BEING PART OF THAT DRAMA. THE SECOND ROUND WAS JUST A PART OF IT, MOSLEY MUST PRESSURE HIM AND GIVE HIM SOME PROBLEM AND AFTER THAT IT SHOULD BE GIVEN AWAY AS PLANNED.
Oscar must have yelled at Shane for hitting Floyd, and then he stopped after that, well done from the script. Imagine if Shane KO'd Floyd, then Oscar would have fired him.
its so funny how you guyss still hate on mayweather after that spectacular performance.. marley its so sad how you continue to be on pacquiao pinoy.. and stop making him look like he can speak that good of english or people are gunna start thinking youre making this up everyone knows he illiterate
HINDI PORKE MAHAL KO SI NINOY AT SI CORY,IBOBOTO KO NA RIN SI NOYNOY.
TAMA KA JAN BROD,YUNG NANAY ALANG NAGAWA SA PINAS,YUNG ANAK PA?SUS NAMAN.AQUINO NA NAMAN?NAKUPOOOOO!!!!
1 thing is clear... pac can catch floydie & destroy him ;>
@Southpaw Truth says:
why are you still suporting your negro brother..you know he is a fraud??and hey who among you negro cannot beat an old and washed up figher?? only negro like you believe in floydgoloid.
hey, southpaw,do u think u know manny very well by judging that he's illiterate, u idiot, for ur information manny is a college level if im not wrong he studies management in one of the universities here in the phils. is mayweather a college degree holder? shut up!
ang taong nakikipagtalo sa drug test ay isang drug user.. wala pa ako nakikilala na ayaw magpadrug test para sa trabaho.
its not that mosley stopped attacking. mayweather countered so much of mosley's punches that it f'd up mosley's game. he was so hesitant to fire his combos coz he knows that if it's not perfect, pbf would counter it.
if floyd beats a fighter they would say floyd is the greatest, but if pac beats a fighter they would say the fighter is washed up
mga bro,buksan nyo ang inyong isipan c villar ba iboboto nyo? pag manalo yan c villar hindi na pilipinas ang bayan natin,kundi camella homes na lahat kaya cnasabi nya tapusin na natin ang kahirapan,patay tyo pag mananalo...ibebenta na ang pilipinas...hehehhe
Floyd is a coward, scared sh!t of the PACMAN.....
common guys im filipino too but dont be too racistr about anything
@ marley
howcome your info is different from everybody else he watched the fight live because he responded to the fight with in an hr of it being over and he also said he would do testing up to 24days then changed it to 14days howcome your info isnt matching up with the truth marley........ can you answer that for me.........
@ rob..
i'm correct
hatton wasnt the same your right coto he did do a catch weight and i stil give many credit for beating cotto even though he wasnt the same after the stupid cheater but if roach dint thnk those 2pounds would matter he wouldnt have fought so hard for it thought would he? i give credit for cotto because he was still one of the best welter weights out there and you have tobeat a man before you can say your better then them you cant just say hes shot so i dont need to fight him sso i do give credit for cotto still and if he beat mosley i would give credit too cuz mosley is a top welter weight
PAC COULD NEVERRRRRRRRR STAND A CHANCE AGAINST MAYWEATHER... pacs Overaggressive offense will SURELY be his downfall
pacman is a drama queen.. he's scared of mayweather without his steroids.. that is why he refuses random blood testing.. which lebron, kobe, lance armstrong, michael phelps agreed to do.. pacman is not above them.. what a drama queen.. pound for pound
@ marley i doubt its even you but stil ill entertain it no your not lol...i went on my laptop after hte fight to try and find the post interview and with in an hr their was an article of pac saying he watched the fight and that he wil not take test 24days before cuz its unfair because mayweather bigger then him so no your wrong he watched it live lol
wala ng squaters sa pinas pag manalo c villar puro camella homes na lahat,paano makabibili ang mahihirap ng camella homes? kaya bro isipin nyo,c villar ay hndi totoong mahirap nanay nya wholeseller ng seafood sa divisoria at tatay nya sa government noon,mahirap ba un??? mag-isip kayo sa tamang kandidato..vote wisely mga tol...
Villar is the best candidate. Camelia homes is just the start how Philippines will look in the future. But you people wanted to stay the same and do nothing or for a change? Up to you all!
Yeah he would finish him but the problem is pacroid can't hit like that he he...Yeah you right Marley this will be like Leonard/Duran ending in a Mayweather victory! Those shots that snaped back the head of Shane Mosley coutless times sures heck wasn't scripted...Pacroid is talking outta his a$S:)
To Boil.... You have already answered your question. "...he (Mosley) was so hesitant to fire his combos coz he knows that if it's not perfect, pbf would counter it." There you go. That was the answer. Mosley was so hesitant to fire his combos. Which means only one thing...as you have said... "mosley stopped attacking".
Acualy I heard Pacquiao was doing cometry?
@roids
sa tingin mo sino si mayweather para magdikta para baguhin ang mga patakaran ng commision na namamahala sa boxing sa america.kaya ayaw ni manny mgpadrugtest ganon kalapit sa laban, kuha mo brad?
Nice work Mr Marley! More power to you.
Si noynoy kayang-kayang sigawan ni Kris, at iiyak pa tipo.
Im more looking forward to this generations remake of Leonard/Herns or Mayweather/Williams after that performance Pacquiao would be an easy meal!
Zar-C - touche.. but what i meant was he stopped attacking bcz of mayweather not bcz of himself. mayweather mind fcked mosley.
@roid, you don't read good my friend, Pacman is willing to do all the testing, but not the day before the fight. Read more, you have no idea about mind game, in boxing, if you get to the mind of your opponent, you win already the 1st and second round. If you cannot still understand that, ask your neighbor.
Than no fight for the cheater! that about all I gotta say peace im out.
if pacman is the one who hits floyd in round 2 kentucky fraud chicken is gone and paralyzed
lahat ng ginastos ni villar nanakawin din nya yan sa kaban ng bayan,ang babantayan ntin mga tol,kung saan c ramos ngyon un ang mananalo sa pagka presidente....hehehehe...tandaan nyo yan..
ha...ha...If Manny smile thats dangerous. If he was the guy fighting Mosley, 3 rounds Mosley to dreamland. FMJ you better look 4 other flimsy reason.
No, Cleto Reyes Gloves? Why didn't Mosley or Mayweather use the Cleto Reyes Gloves for the fight. Clearly, Mosley caught Mayweather with a 2 big punches in the 2nd round. What if Mosley used the Cleto Reyes boxing gloves??? Would Mayweather be on the canvas? or vice-versa, would Mayweather have KOed Mosley? Also, clearly Mosley won the 1st and 2nd rounds, however...Why did only 1 of the 3 judges score 1 round in favor of Mosley? 2 of those judges weren't doing their job correctly, because everyone says Mosley won the 2nd round.
commission rules are just plain stpid. so taking the test of just the commission is also stpid for this big of an event.
their is conspiracy on random blood letting conducted on mosley by the USDA. mayweather extracted 5 times while mosley are 6 times. this is fraud.
#1floydfan, what performance? A match between an old guy who gases out on the last rounds? You make me laugh. I guess we'll see when Manny and Money fight huh? Oh by the way, based on your grammar I'd say you cheated when you were in school. CHEATER....LOL
Grant Gloves and Cleto Reyes are some of the best in the business.. pbf always use Grant. just like pac use cleto reyes. nothting wrong with that.
oi magnanakaw na villar parang apektado ka? cnasabi ko lng at wala akong iniindurso na presidente,kung c ramos kakampi na sa inyo panalo na c villar.pero c ramos ngyon wala pang iniindursong presidente. kaya tandaan nyo kung saan c ramos un ang panalo.. kay nonoy nmn villar d bali mongo cguro takot nmn sa diyos,eh c villar? magnanakaw pareho kayo magnanakaw cguro...hehehehe
That's what I'm talking about Manny. Talk like the King because you're the king, not Floyd.
to Floydiots..
you idiots accused PAC of being on steriods without any proof, dont you people know how stupid you sound like.. its pretty clear that you guys are just dead jealous of what PAC has achieved in boxing..
Floyd is a coward.. nothing more..
@ Drama_is_an_idiot - agreeing to 24 day cutoff date is not agreeing to random testing. even marijuana and shabu will not be detected in a few hours notice... let alone performance enhancers.. and yes if you asked.. i tested negative for weed less than 24 hours after smoking them.
kaya nga tinatanong ko kung sino gusto mo? si mongo aquino? bakit ayaw mo sagutin? kung meron kang kilala na politician na hindi nag nakaw.. sige.. hindi ko boboto villar.
NOYNOY FOR PRESIDENT...VOTE!!! LADLAD PARTY LIST..PAG MANALO ANG PARTY LIST NMIN,MAGLALABASAN NA ANG NAHIHIRAPAN AT NGTATAGO SA KANILANG PINAGTATAGUAN...GO GO GO
Last time i checked it was right after the fight not HOURS after the fight. Ang bobo mo! Adik!! Hehehe!!!!!
i hope pacman would man up and stop his excuses about blood test. just take the test.
