5.3.09: It's Shoetime!!!

This May 3, 2009, my numero uno idol, Manny "Pacman" Pacquiao, will be battling it out with the British brawler Ricky Hatton. It figures to be another explosive encounter for the Pambansang Kamao as he seeks to add the 140 lb. division to his list of pugilistic conquests.

You might find it hard to believe, but I used to harbor dreams of being a pro boxer. I used to idolize Iron Mike Tyson back when he was still terrorizing the heavyweight division. I'd imitate his every moves with gusto and plastered my rooms with his pictures. Heck, I even tried his "ear-biting" ways. Unfortunately, it was our maid who was on the receiving end. MT was my first mancrush. Verne Troyer was the next.

Alas, my dreams of prizefighting glories would never materialize. I was deemd a teeny-weeny bit undersized for my weight category (welterweight, 140 lbs.) However, i still remained a keen observer of the "sweet science". Come Sunday, I will be part of the throng cheering on Pacman in the Powerplant Cinema. SM Cinemas are too jologs for my taste. You know?

I could have been a contender. Living the life that Manny is having now. Instead, all I do is constantly battle the urge not to whack off so often. Sniff. I envy the guy below who seemed to had it better.
