Mayweather, Pacman and the Losers.

Floyd Mayweather punched Ortiz while the referee was motioning to the timekeeper, not once but twice, and was declared winner. Manny Pacquiao outpointed Marquez and was declared winner in last Saturday's welterweight championship fight.

Some American boxing aficionados groaned, but accepted the decision in the Mayweather case. In Pacquiao's case, some boxing aficionados grunted and SHOULD ACCEPT the Pacquiao win.

I wouldn't be surprised if Mexicans would boo Pacquiao and say Marquez was robbed the game. Of course, they would root for their countryman. But to smart aleck Pinoys who say Marquez won, I don't have patience.

Pinoys who continue to pull down their compatriots are flaunting the Pinoy crab mentality. We've seen this many times. I've seen it many times in work places and events outside the Philippines, amongst fellow Filipinos.

Unlike other cultures, we Pinoys don't support our compatriots.

I have a former officemate whom I requested to ask her editor if I could have some articles published in the community paper where she is a featured columnist. She never got back to me. Much later did I realize that the paper she writes for has the organization I last worked as a regular advertiser.

Well, I left that organization on a sour note; I was accused by the ED as having reported my manager to a big funder. That manager, who drew part of his salary from the funder was a regular no show in the office, and never supported my Unit which was a moneymaker in a non-profit. Now, I heard this manager has been re-assigned in a satellite office and no longer flaunts his "work ethic" in the central or hub location.

Anyways, this part of my life has long been forgotten if not for the just concluded Pacquiao-Marquez fight, which reminded me of the crab mentality I experienced from a fellow Pinoy office worker.

This "I'll pull you down," mentality by some Pinoys shows insecurity and envy.

Some of our fellow "kababayans," especially while working abroad, are always ready to score once they sense that a fellow Pinoy is in tight spot; instead of going to his/her aid, they make it a point to pull the individual down so they can go up and occupy the top/better spot.

Other cultures always come to the rescue of their compatriots. That's why their ethnic groups develop political clout because they are unified, they are cohesive, they support each other. Look how successful Chinese and Indian people are wherever they go. Hispanics, too.

Majority of the judges in the Pacquiao-Marquez fight gave the game to Pacquiao . These judges were in the ringside and saw and heard the punches up close.

To those Pinoys who continue to blab that Manny didn't win, just shut up your big mouths. The game was won by Manny Pacquiao. Yipee yehey.

You LOST.
