Closed the shop yesterday's morning and watched Pacquiao's fight against Mayweather with family and the barbers.
Exciting for Paquiao during the first few rounds, but when it hit round 6, my cheers however were declining for him. It wasn't that he can't take the fight, but beating Mayweather and his strategy is just a far chance that Pacquiao will beat him by scores since (if) the fight finished by round 12. I just had the feeling that he'll be beaten by the judges' scores. It wasn't surprising anymore when they declared the winner after the fight.
Despite of the results, I still believe Pacquiao is the winner, and even if he finished any fight either his in good or bad shape, I'll still support him all the way. It's not because he's a Filipino, it's for the reason that despite of his struggles in life, he reached his dreams and became one of the best all-time fighters in the world. Now that is awesome and certainly an inspiration to all.
Congrats to Mayweather. His strategy do works. But my heart will always be for Pacquiao.
