Weekend Roundup #75

Jaypee Habaradas — Mon, 15 Mar 2010 15:27:22 +0000

How are you all doing? Hope you all had a good weekend. This weekend was kinda like the same as last weekend, not too busy but was more exciting and had more fun. Although I wasn’t able to watch it, I was glad to find out from the news that the Los Angeles Lakers won over the Phoenix Suns. The suprise of the weekend was the NY Knicks win over the Dallas Mavericks by 30 points, avenging their previous 50-point loss and also ending the Mav’s 13-game winning streak.

Of course who doesn’t know about last Saturday’s boxing match between Manny Pacquiao of the Philippines and Ghanain boxer Joshua Clottey? Filipinos and boxing fans around the world have been waiting for it since it was announced. Pacquiao won as most people expected but didn’t expect it to be that lopsided and boring. People were expecting Clottey to give it his best and to be aggressive, to give Pacquiao a run for his money. Instead, Clottey turned into a punching bag, absorbing Pacquiao’s punches all throughout the fight and barely threw punches of his own. Pacquiao threw around 1,200+ punches, while Clottey only had about 300+. In previous Pacquiao fights, I would watch the replay several times and look at the details round by round but this fight was so boring, I didn’t even bother to watch a replay. Pacquiao like always, came out and did his part, stuck with his fight plan/strategy and fought like a champ. Congratulations Manny and more power to you!

Now, we’ll have to wait and see who’ll win in the Floyd Mayweather Jr vs Shane Mosley fight, because whoever wins that fight will most likely fight Pacquiao next.

Anyways, on to the good stuff. Hope you guys enjoy this week’s edition of the Weekend Roundup!

Hi guys! Hope everyone’s doing good. I know the folks in the Philippines are enjoying a long weekend as Araw ng Kagitingan (Day of Valor) which is a national holiday celebrated every 9th of April was moved to Monday, April 6th. My weekend was okay although we weren’t able to go to church because my son didn’t feel well and vomited in the car so we ended up going home. Saturday night, I got to spend time with family and meet my aunt, uncle and cousin who came from Germany. Sunday, we had to drive to Los Angeles to see our lawyer thats why I wasn’t able to publish this post earlier. Anyways, hope you guys enjoy this edition of the Weekend Roundup!

Weekend Roundup #25

Jaypee Habaradas — Sun, 23 Nov 2008 13:00:41 +0000

UPDATE: Thanks to Aja for pointing out that this should be roundup #25. I didn’t see that I already published #24 because I filed it in the wrong category.

Yes folks, the Weekend Roundup is back! It’s been eight months since I last published the last roundup. I never intended to stop this weekly feature but the busy schedule, problems with my old laptop and a little bit of laziness on my part kept me from posting another Weekend Roundup. Well, I’m trying to revive it again and hopefully I can continue this every week. I’d also like to know from you, my regular readers whether I should continue this weekly feature or not.

Without further ado, here’s this week’s roundup of news and interesting stuff from around the web and blogosphere.
