Manny Pacquiao may have all the media frenzy in this land but two Filipino boxers worth our attention has made our country proud (again). Boom-Boom Bautista and AJ Banal recently won their respective matches for this year's much anticipated event, The World Awaits: De La Hoya VS Floyd Mayweather. The man who gave them much attention, Oscar De La Hoya, may have lost his title (still, questionable) but he has proven that these two champions have the right to be respected and be honored. Their names might not be as big as Manny Pacquiao's but these two young lads are truly the future of Filipino boxing. They would paved the way for new superstars and new champions for this country.

They're truly champions in their own right!

Congratulations to Boom Boom Bautista and AJ Banal!

You make this country proud!
