dream country pride
A fighter's dream is to win a world title and gain financial stability. But what is happening to me now is the most humbling experience of my life. It is a great honor for me to be the face of my people and to let everyone know we are a small but mighty country. I have great pride for all of the Filipinos living throughout the world and it is these people that I fight for each and every time I step into the ring.
experience forget
It was an experience I will never forget in my life,
hindi
Sasagasaan ko 'yan. Talagang maghahanda ako para sa kanya. Dadaanin ko sa resistance. Hindi ko siya tatantanan. Lagi akong naroon kahit siya maputo.
moved time
Every time Erik moved to his right, I couldn't see him.
fight focus less week
I would just like to focus even more because the fight is less than a week from now.
body eighth knew landing punches sometime wearing
I think I had him sometime in the eighth round. I knew the body punches were wearing him down, and I knew that if I could keep landing them, I'd probably get him.
knocked time
I think he can come back. It was (only) his first time (an opponent) knocked him out.
against relative
I'm not against gay people. I have a relative who is also gay. We can't help it if they were born that way.
In boxing you never know who you're going to face in ring.
against gave god law marriage opinion
I only gave out my opinion that same sex marriage is against the law of God.
expect fights lost training
I expect that when he fights me he will be the real Erik Morales. He is training very hard. I do not think I will get the same Morales that lost to Zahir.
disappoint expecting fans
My fans were expecting me there and I did not want to disappoint them.
maybe mercy partners shows sparring
Maybe Manny can take Espinosa for his roadwork or as an adviser. As we all know, Manny shows no mercy even with his sparring partners
victory
This was very important. I don't get to Morales without a victory.
