Pacquiao defeats Clottey via UD

Pound-for-pound king Manny "Pacman" Pacquiao retains his World Boxing Organization (WBO) welterweight title as he defeated Joshua "The Grand Master" Clottey in front of more than 50,000 boxing fans at the Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, Texas.

Pacquiao shows his speed and punished Clottey with combinations to the body throughout the fight. The Gnana warrior failed to match Pacquiao's flexibility and he just kept his guard high and threw few punches.

At the end of the fight, the three judges Levi Martinez, Nelson Vasquez and Duane Ford scored a Unanimous Decision: 120-108, 119-109, 119-109.

Senator Panfilo "Ping" Lacson's arrest warrant released

Is it justice or a payback by the Arroyo administration?

The Department of Justice is calling Senator Panfilo "Ping" Lacson as a fugitive. The Manila Regional Trial Court ordered the arrest of Sen. Lacson after being linked and accused in the murders of publicist Salvador “Bubby” Dacer and his driver Emmanuel Corbito in November 2000.

The warrant of arrest was dated Feb. 4 but Lacson already left the Philippines last January 5.

Senator Lacson admits that he really leaves the country to escape from the “harassment” of the Arroyo administration.

Many will say it is a great move by Lacson. He cannot use his legislative immunity because he is charged with a non-bailable offense that carries a penalty of more than 10 years.

Lacson stated that this is a payback aftet being critical of the administration.

The senator was responsible in exposing the alleged corruption involving President Arroyo and her husband, Jose Miguel "Mike" Arroyo like the "Jose Pidal" bank accounts (hidden wealth).
