Miguel Cotto knew that when he signed on to fight Manny Pacquiao, he was getting into what was essentially the boxing equivalent of a brutal knife fight. Cotto made sure to bring his knife when he walked into the ring.

The only problem was, Pacquiao decided to bring a chainsaw instead.

Pacquiao, Cotto, and the savage nature of boxing
Going back to my running theme of how awesome it would be if great Filipino writers started writing more about sports, GMANews.tv editor-in-chief Howie Severino (a friend of this blog, incidentally) penned a thought-provoking piece about violence in boxin

you know what... you might be right. i've been trying to ask people all afternoon if they knew which guy it was (it was definitely a TODAS guy, so either val or jimmy), but i wasn't really sure. can you name which movie that is?

bago na lang yun eh. i could swear there was another movie where the same gag was used, a much older one.

Sir honestly, I really forgot the title of the movie. Somehow it was a movie tandem of Joey and Rene. But I'm very sure that's Val Sotto.

see, there may very well have been two movies where that gag was used. i think the one with val sotto was smith & wesson, which starred vic sotto and joey de leon as detectives.

but i also distinctly remember a jimmy santos cameo in a joey de leon movie, where jimmy played a tough inmate. nag-joke pa si joey kung si jimmy ba si joaquin bordado.
