If,like Pac,Marvin will take the stick exercises religiously and won't give up, i gonna support him again.
Marvin has given up on himself before anyone of us did. Tell him to get up on his feet first, then we will take the path together with him.
I see where people would get discouraged with his ill adviced actions of late, and I would be too. It's just that, there is so much potential with this young man, more than the other talented prospects out of the Philippine boxing scene. Here's one where we don't have to discover him or look for him, he is already here just waiting to be developed into a well honed, highly skilled fighter.
As I have been saying, all he needs right now is a proper upbringing, if you will, the right coach and manager and maybe a sports psychologist to initially help get him off his boxing depression. Marvin needs people who really truly cares and can impart in him much needed boxing skills and savvy to help him get back on track and to the top of his profession.
I'm sure many will agree with me that Marvin got the "gift". But he is still this raw potential who needs much work with the right people. Isn't it just amazing that this young man won a major belt, a World Championship, while literally being a "one handed" fighter like our beloved Manny Pacquiao was ages ago? But after teaming up with Roach.... the rest as they say, is history.
I just hope Marvin hasn't really given up on this sport that he loved dearly. I just hope people hasn't really given up on Marvin either.
Marvin has all the potentials to be a good champion. He should never be blamed. He's just 20yrs old. His handlers should have known better.
Except that he was not properly managed. People simply forget this. I will never be tired of repeating this.
Before Sonsona was fed to Vasquez, he had a record of 14-0-1. With only 15 fights, Sonsona should have been prepared first before fighting Vasquez who had a record of 62 fights (54-6-2) with 41 KOs Experience should be given due to Sonsona and other "upcoming boxers."
The recent promotion he is doing now is on a little known 'Ardin Diale' who will be fighting reigning WBO flyweight Champion Julio Cesar Miranda on February 12, 2010 in Guadalajara , Mexico. Even if Diale wins this (fluke win), he won't last because he won't be prepared for more great fights.
Pacman start also in Philippines with our local trainers... same as the ALA boys... But when the Chance came to him to have a fight in America. HE gave his very best to achieved IT. he did not blow it up..
di na kawalan yan sa boxing!....we have so many potential future champions that are physically and mentally better than marvin ...

"bu bu but it makes the league better" - what tha fucll better, it makes your asshole better, to fk, with lube, whoever you are sayin that.
mmyeah, that doesn't work out man. We tried and hoped with Eddie Jones in England. The fkr just made them the best team on the planet, besides the AB of course, in like, a week and a half. Didn't even try and take his time even, you know. This shit don't work man. GSW gon be brutow for 82 games, bust everybody's butts for probably the first two post season rounds, and then the season actually starts. They can play with dildos up their asses the whole game they'll still score twice as many as the opponent on average. And with Steve Kerr enjoying the sight on the sideline getting inspired for his HT wank...
Not NBA but UCLA are supposed to be relevant this year, they got an incoming freshman who is considered the #1 PG prospect, Lonzo Ball - the oldest of three brothers, all of whom have committed to UCLA I believe. He led Chino Hills HS to an undefeated season and the California state championship last year:
Gonna take in some games as always, so far got tickets to the Spurs @ Kings, Villanova-St John's @ MSG and the NCAA tournament games in Sacramento.
I'm not sure what to make of the Thunder - there's just so many question marks about the roster. They could win 35 games... they could win 48. I am immensely looking forward to seeing how it all pans out, and with very little expectations this season, I'm more relaxed than usual!
I'm looking forward to Westbrook going beast mode this season now that Durant is not there to slow him down, this is Westbrook team now

Davis Bertans looked nice in that little 5 minute cameo at the end. Where do the Spurs find these guys?
Good to see the Warriors get humbled in their first game. Even if I expect them to dominate later in the season once their combinations develop.
I'm a fan of Stephen A Smith, don't get me wrong I disagree with most of what he says but he's an entertaining loudmouth who is smarter than people assume. Intrestingly he usually is the one who is always supporting players and defending them and their decisions so it takes a lot for him to reverse that position on a matter.
Though I won't say I disagree with him here but I also don't agree. The mental strength of todays players is clearly weak sauce compared to generations past and far more selfish even if they are publically "nicer" and less bas boy like. Though Durrnt is a case of mental weakness, always indecisive and a victim, trying to be one thing like I don't care bad boy to trying to be the nice boy done good. But frequently being a moany whiner about fair media questions and stories. I used to love him but I'm really rather cool about him these days. He wants everything to go his way and is really thin skinned.
The interesting thing is will Durrant affect the team chemistry? Adding a better player can remove effectiveness of other players and team synergy. I say that because Durrant and Westbrook never really "got it" and team play goes. Sure they gave the other one their dues and time witht he ball. Both were exceptional individuals, but you never felt they were the sum of the parts or could make their team mates be better.
The thing is with Durant (I have watched a shit load of his play in the last 3 years) is that he does not move off the ball and despite his length he can be a shit defender at times. He is basically a better Carmello Anthony with a worse attitude.
Klay or Dray's usage is going to go way down as Durant will eat up plenty of shots; how that is managed by Kerr will be fundamental to how their season goes offensively.
But it is defense that is going to kill them. While Durant will get plenty of boards, they generally aren't contested. Their interior defense is woeful, Green lacks height and Zaza is woeful, Bogut made Green look good, but Bogut is now in Dallas. Curry is going to have to defend more and he has trouble staying in front of his man, the more he defends, the more tired he may get and this may affect his offense.
I'm a diehard Knicks supporter, but if he came here, I'd prolly find another team. Such a dickhead and a terrible example for kids
Knicks are not a super team going by the loudest sources. ESPN doesn't even have them in the playoffs lol
I love how, just listening to these idiots on TNT, "no one in the media had San Antonio playing this well, it was all about Golden State"
They will be a good regular season team, GSW, but for the playoffs, facing probably Spurs/Clippers/Blazers/Jazz, need a better defensive centre than Zaza (who is a decent positional and post defender, but woeful help defender / rim protector) and Anderson "Queen of the flops" Varejou
Around March the media will figure out just how good Bogut was in Kerr's motion system and defensively. He covered up sooooo many perimeter breakdowns cause Curry gambles alot
I just saw the boxscore of the OKC v 76ers game. OKC aren't going to do well long-term by relying on Westbrook to get triple doubles every game.
The young Lakers side won the first game of the season. They've nearly beaten their record from last season already.
50 point & 16 rebound game for Anthony Davis in a Pelicans' loss. It sounds like he was outstanding.
Russ got 18 trip-dubs last season. He'll need to keep packing the stat sheet for the Thunder to make the playoffs this season.
Happy to get the win yesterday, but they have a lot of work ahead of them - which is entirely expected, given the roster overhaul - which is far from done, I'd wager.
Anyone less interested in the NBA these days ? I don't mean on the macro scale like before VS now, I mean just from last year to this year. The Spurs, "my team", beat up the Broken State Worriers as I like to call them, ha ha hilarious I know, and I couldn't even bother to look up the highlights. Well, that's also due to the fact that nba.com is the single worst official website to a major sports league of all time these days, they can't be fkd to even fix that video highlights issue outside the States, from here in France you get an error page every time lol, apparently something to do with time zone, ridiculously pathetic.
I dunno, it'll be more of the same won't it... I mean the teams that suck, SUUUUUUCK, I've no clue who the fk plays for Milwaukee or where the hell those Pacers are at now for e.g., and the teams that are good have aaaaall the good players, always been that way sure but this is just another level, and everybody shoots threes... I dunno. And I'm tired of the Bron-cock riding. I was a Bron supporter when everybody was on Kobe's cock and I thought he was getting tons of unfair hatred, but since he started serendipitously winning titles everybody's been deepthroating the man beyond common imagination of the human anatomy.
Dwayne Wade made a statement in the first game for his hometown Bulls. Maybe one of only a few this season.
Buddy really needs to hit the ground running in this league. This teams in desperate need of outside shooting with all the double and triple teams on AD
I hear OKC play the Warriors tomorrow. It will be interesting to watch Westbrook's reaction to Durant on the court.
