‘Punch like Samson, hit like David, in Jesus’ name’
Jinkee’s fashion sense
Others were more secular.
“Plz beat Mayweather, just give him a knockout!” one netizen pleaded, while another focused on Jinkee Pacquiao’s fashion sense: “Don’t forget to bring your crocodile Berkin. Wag magpatalo sa kabit ni Mayweather (Don’t let Mayweather’s mistress outshine you).”
That fashion sense has been publicly chronicled on Jinkee’s Instagram account, which is also replete with photographs of the Pacquiao’s growing brood—Jimuel, Michael, Queenie, Princess and the youngest, 1-year-old Israel. A photo of the children with Mommy Dionesia, aka PacMom, is also posted.
“I am happy coz my kids know now the childhood of Manny indeed from nothing into something. God is soooo good!” she posted after watching a private screening of Pacquiao’s biofilm in Los Angeles.
While her followers usually offer Jinkee their unabashed comments and opinions, it was this morning’s Battle for Greatness between Pacquiao and Mayweather that have kept netizens busy these past days.
‘Be smart’
“Manny reminder lang ha don’t rush be smart. Remember what happened to you during the Marquez fight. Kaya mo si Mayweather. (You can beat Mayweather). God bless and good luck,” netizen wankerka commented on Instagram.
‘Love that your so humble. Knock some sense into Mayweather. He needs it,” another netizen posted.
“I just pray you ain’t a sellout like the rest of these boxers. Cause it would be a shame #Hope#God#ThatsAllYouNeed” netizen 1xwoody said on Instagram.
#GoPacGo you can do it!!! Hand the #MoneyMan his first taste of defeat!!!” netizen @Detrocker2264 tweeted.
“Thanks Manny for your inspiration to start my own art page. When you win I will paint another! I call this one, ‘Hands, Heart & Mind,’” netizen Space Ginger said of the man who inspired him to follow his dream
Not to be outdone, netizen GeoffArsenal made an ardent appeal: “Can you leave the tickets in the name of Geoff Arsenal please Manny. Thanks again.” With reports from Ramon Royandoyan and Paul Vincent Balois
