Nagbigay si G. Aquino ng masdetalyadong salaysay sa opera-syon sa harap ng mga pinuno ngpananampalataya, sa pangungu-na ni Bro. Eddie Villanueva.

“If I am at fault here, why should I take all the blame?” aniG. Aquino sa mga kasapi ng Chris-tian Leaders Coalition. “The truthis I was given the wrong informa-tion by the people who knewmost of what was happening and,

unfortunately, those who didn’tknow anything couldn’t give meany further information ratherthan very raw information,” aniya,patungkol kay Director GetulioNapeñas, ang sinibak na hepe ngSpecial Action Force (SAF).

“It now appears that he didn’thave any intention to [obey] my order to coordinate,” anang Pa-ngulo. “If I knew that he woulddo this from the start, I wouldhave said no to this mission.What could have been a success-ful mission became ‘Mission Im-possible.’” CV Esguerra

Shine airs side vs Buboy’s sis

When they were together,Shine used to confide in metheir marital woes. I remem-ber telling her once, “Itdoesn’t mean that Buboy loveshis siblings more than you. It’s just that he has loved themlonger.”

Even if Buboy is my BFF, I would like to believe that my friendship with Shine is notcoterminous with their mar-riage. We don’t get to talk anymore; still, I treasure themoments I shared with Shineduring their happy days.

For the longest time, I real-ly wished they could stillpatch things up. But it lookslike they have reached theend. Hopefully, in time, Buboy and Shine can meet halfway.

After I published the side of Buboy’s sister, Marimer “AteChed” Hamilton in this col-umn last week, Shine took toFacebook to air her senti-ments:

The FB post“Guys, the rape case is still

pending. I’m not doing this for

money because I have beenproviding well for my kidssince I got separated two years ago. Kaya ko naman (I canhandle it). Cesar, on the otherhand, only gives [money]monthly for rent and the kids’tuition. I have been really qui-et about this because I believethis should be settled incourt... They are the ones whogive interviews left and rightand [then] they blame me. Iam a mom and whatever I amdoing now is... for my chil-dren. Ched/Marimer is mad at

me. She once harassed me,[saying] that Buboy was notthe father of our youngest. I won [that] libel case. Onemore thing, she is the sister of my ex, so... her actions [don’tsurprise me]. Maybe I shouldreally consider … airing my side of the story becausethey’ve been making noise for weeks. I am a mom who willprotect and fight for my threegirls.”

Not a coupleIn my previous column, I

posed a question regardingthe closeness of Derek Ram-say and Ynna Asistio . I didnot confirm anything. Theplayful conjecture was just to

pique readers’ curiosity. Sincethe main story in that column was my Q&A with AntoinetteJadaone , the director/writerof “That Thing Called Tad-hana,” I was surprised that my short item about Derek and Ynna became the headline.

It did not sit well withDerek or with Ynna’s mom,Nadia Montenegro . To set therecord straight, Derek and Yn-na are not a couple.

Calling Games and Amusements Board : Stop the boxing madnesBy Teo Medina Reynoso

SINCE the start of the year, 16Filipino boxers have seen ac-tion in major bouts abroad andall but a few were utterly de-feated by the home fighters.

Just this last weekend,three Pinoys went up againstforeign foes in Macau in theundercard of the Zhou ShiMing-Amnat Ruenroeng IBF world flyweight title fight andonly Aston Palicte won hisbout, knocking out his Mexi-can opponent Ismael Garnica.Michael Enriquez bowed toChinese Rex Tso while Ray-mond Sermona was knockedout by Mexican Jose Felix Jr.

Previous to this, three otherPinoy fighters fought in vari-ous places in Thailand for in-ternational titles and were alleither stopped or knocked out with Lionel Legada losing by TKO3 to Paipharob Kokietgymfor the WBO Oriental light fly-

weight title; Jayson Redondo by

KO7 to former world title chal-lenger Chonlatran Piripinyo forthe WBO Asia Pacific feather- weight crown and Mateo Hand-ig KO8 to Panomroonglek Kaiyanghadaogym for the PABA bantamweight title.

On February 28, the cornerof promising flyweight con-tender Jether Oliva was forcedto retire their ward after fourrounds of almost one-sidedbeating he took from his biggerand stronger Mexican opponentLuis Nery.

The Filipino fighters’ stringof dismal losses started at thetail-end of January when JomarFajardo, a journeyman flyweightfell by unanimous decision toMexican former two-belt worldminimumweight titlist FranciscoRodriguez in their rematch heldin Chiapas, Mexico.

This was followed by the de-feat of Jeffrey Galero on Febru-ary 5 at the hands of Thai WBC

world minimumweight champi-

on Wanhang Menayothin intheir title bout in NakhonSawan, Thailand where an in-ternational panel of judges hadthe Thai titlist winning virtually all the rounds.

Pinoy junior lightweight Adones Aguelo followed suit,dropping a 10th round TKO lossto undefeated Mexican AdtrianEstrella in Los Mochis on Valen-tine’s Day.

On February 18, in Tokyo,Japan, Ricardo Roa came in asa late substitute for ArgentineSergio Perales and was stoppedinside two rounds by world rat-ed Japanese Ryosuke Iwasa.

Four days later, veteranSylvester Lopez who has justmoved up to the bantamweightclass after fighting most of hiscareer at super flyweight, facedChinese super bantamweightQui Xiao Jun and was stoppedinside 6th round of a 12 roundbout for the vacant WBC super

bantamweight title in Wenshan,

China.Before February wasthrough, Pinoy fighters wouldsee action in foreign rings andall would lose dismally. They were Allan Tanada,Powell Bala-ba,Bong Nacionales,Jimmy Pay-pa and Oliva losing in Mexico.

There’s a common thread inthis foreign ring debacles: ei-ther our Pinoy campaigners were seriously outmatched by their world rated opponents ora few of them fought in the wrong weight classes as in thecases of Tanada, Oliva and Pay-pa.

This number do not includeminor bouts in foreign ringsthat involved a few Pinoy fight-ers where they lost more thanthey won.

We admire the zeal of theGames and Amusements Board(GAB) for assering its mandatein protecting Filipino profes-sional boxers in its ongoing row

with the ABAP over the over-

seas stint of Pinoy OlympiansMark Barriga and Charly Saurez whom GAB already considers as pros for fightingin an AIBA sponsored tourna-ment where cash prizes aregiven.

However, we need to seethe same zeal from the GAB inthe matter of preventing proboxing mismatches involvingovermatched Pinoys fightingabroad and overmatched for-eign boxers contracted to fightin the local rings.

We also need to see GAB’sdecisiveness in the case of aPinoy fighter who is supposed-ly under medical suspensionfor 90 days who was able tofight in Thailand recently with-out the prior knowledge of hispromoter and manager.

Philippine boxing is okay with Manny Pacquiao stillaround but what happens if Manny loses and/or retires?
