THE EAR - The Philippine Star
June 29, 2012 | 12:00am

PACMAN FANS. Many fans of Manny Pacquiao are worried about his so-called "consummate dedication" to his Bible reading. "Basig mao ning moda sa kadautan sa iyang boxing career," an Ear informer heard a fan of Manny express his fear.

NO MORE K.O.s? The fan said Manny might no longer want to hurt his opponent on the ring and might hold punches "in obedience" to what the Bible says. "Mao na nay padulngan sa pagkahagba sa Pambansang Kamao," the fan said.
