PacMan Wins!

the most important story in the Philippines is THIS: and THIS.

THE Philippine flag flew high in Los Angeles Saturday night (close to Sunday noon in Manila). Real, real high. Not one, not two, but three Filipino boxers spearheaded by Manny Pacquiao scored sensational knockout victories at the Staples Center in one of the biggest nights of RP boxing in history. ...
Then late in the night Pacquiao, the biggest name in Philippine boxing today, didn't disappoint, scoring a sixth round KO of Mexican Hector Velazquez.

Pacquiao took the WBC international super featherweight title and more importantly regained some lost pride and cemented his name back in the world stage after losing to Erik Morales in March.
