Filipino fans, are you proud of the clean history of Filipino boxers and athletes?

Hey Killa,

I am very proud of the history of Filipino sports as far as having a clean athletic record. No Filipino athlete in Philippine intact history since joining international sanctioned sports, has ever been proven to have used PED's. This is the list of international doping cases, the Philippines is one of the very few countries who have ZERO athletes who have ever tested positive for steroids or PED's. These are facts my friend so Filipinos own the truth on this issue:

No matter what the “guesstimations” or assumption lies, there are no verities to say any Filipino athlete is cheating as there is no proof to such postulations but rather mere unmerited hearsays. The Philippines relies on a virtue of true sportsmanship, reverence for the sports they choose to participate, and display of sincere professionalism and humbleness. Nothing can take away the pride of the Filipinos to say the Philippines have produced clean athletes as Filipinos themselves own the truth to this matter. People may own their own speculations, but it is without any proven support. Indeed, I hope Filipino athletes of the future continue this trend, as the truth will continue to shower the country with grace, pride, humility, class, and high regard.

I do agree with you. Dr. Jose Rizal is the greatest Filipino to ever live. He had around 8 PhD degrees whom he obtained from various prestigious universities in Europe where some of the universities he attended where some of the most prominent in the world. He was also a Medical Doctor. He has accomplished all of this at a mere age of 35. He was fluent in 23 languages such as Chinese, Japanese, French, Greek, Malaysian, Hindi/Sankrit, Hebrew, Latin, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, Indonesian, etc. The man was simply amazing. His assassination led to the Philippine Revolution that gave the country its independence in 1898 becoming the very first politically independent nation in Asia. There is no Filipino athlete that can ever be considered a bigger icon in the Philippines than Dr. Jose Rizal. Even Pacquaio himself said that. :-)

Of course we are. Don't jinx it though. I think in general Filipinos are very honest people, but there is always one to spoil it eventually.

@Cali d - He has been tested though, several times passed everyone. Once he was even re-tested (I think they lost the sample or something) and Pacquiao was caught completely unawares that he had to take that test. It was just a week or so before his fight. He passed it. Pacquiao is VERY clean. But he had since blamed the test so close to fight night for his weakness. He might be wrong. But he is willing to be tested 3 times, and up to 14 days before the fight. I'm sure you know how steroids work. How much of a benefit do you think that window of 14 days is? And don't forget he would be tested right after the fight as well, so that 14 day window is actually even smaller.

However, I am in favor of Pacquiao taking the test up to the ringing of the bell. Just because its fun to see what new demand team Mayweather would have if he does so. :-) But in seriousness, I want him to take the test because I'm sure he's clean. So why give the opponent a window he isn't going to use?

Also, I've read a recent article that allowed for a very expensive urine test for that drug that they said could only be seen through blood tests. If that is true, then all the blood test issue is now moot. No reason anymore for it to continue.

Because Filipinos always play in the same level of playing fields. We don't consider victories if we committed cheating in any kind of way, that is a shallow victory. So I am surprised why they suspect Manny who is a Filipino and Filipinos don't have the history of cheating.

I like you list of great Filipino boxers, hope you could add Ceferino Garcia there and Speedy Dado.

Asian people are hardworking people.. I have had many Asian friends in college and all of them were very honest and work hard for what they have. They always want to honor their parents. I admire that part about Asian culture. Many Latino families are also very family oriented and work hard for their living.

Congrats to the Philippines for being a great country with a clean record in sports.

Filipino culture is a very humble one and also very honest. We may have our own problems in poverty and politics but Filipinos are defiant and still look to live a life of modesty and honesty. The clean record of the Philippines as a drug free sport nation is really something to be proud of.

YES, I am.

ut wait, those stupid haters might accuse Dr. Jose Rizal of using steroids, the reason why he is great.

That country should be truly proud of such record.

HELLz YEH!

Yes, yes we are.

Dr. Jose Rizal is a WOMANIZING WHORE WHO IS THOUGHT TO BE JACK THE RIPPER! STUPID FLIPS! LOLL LOL
