Kumusta kababayan! My wife is Filipino. Oh yes, Manny is in the game.

[PittPanther]

Absolutely. And he's pretty darn good too. I believe he is rated an "11".

In my recreation of his epic 5-8-04 fight against Marquez, he stopped Marquez in the 5th round after the referee (Cortez was it?) stepped in to stop the punishment.

Yep, he's in, and he's the best active featherweight on the game, just above Marquez and Barrera if I remember right.

Pitt's correct, he's an 11. My former WBC Featherweight champion (Junior Jones) didn't make it out of the 1st round with Manny - 1 rib shot from Manny & Jones was an ex-champ!

Despite my wife's desire to speak English all the time, I have picked up a small amount of Tagalog...more understanding than speaking. Spending two weeks in the Philippines in April was great because I was surrounded by all my in-laws and immersed in the language.

Anyway, if you have not bought TBCB yet, I should point out that there are a lot of Filipino fighters in the game in addition to Manny. And the game gives you the ability to add new fighters, so if there is somebody you know about (a great fighter or a weak one) who isn't in the game, you can rate him yourself and add him, and post him here so the rest of us can add him also.

If you live in the Philippines and watch boxing, that would be great, because you'd be in an excellent position to rate the guys you see.
