Hollywood star, HBO “Entourage” producer and former rapper Mark Wahlberg loves a fellow Mindanaoan, too! This picture clearly shows just how big a fan of Filipino boxing champ Manny “Pacman” Pacquiao Mark Wahlberg is!
Check out the print on Mark’s shirt: “Pacman Knows”
This isn’t the first time I’ve seen Mark openly support the Pambansang Kamao, though. I’ve spotted him on TV doing the red carpet along with Pacquiao.
Thumbs up!
Mindanaoan gani, lahi ra gyud! 
Another Mindanaoan boxer is the current toast of the boxing world! General Santos City native Marvin “Marvelous” Sonsona recently defeated veteran Jose Lopez in a fight in Canada. Ang get this — Marvelous Marvin Sonsona is just 19 years old! Wow! Which reminds me…Perhaps Marvin should reconsider his boxer name and change it to Marvelous Mindanaoan Marvin Sonsona! Hehe
Lopez is said to be undefeated for 6 years. Unfortunately for him, a Mindanao boxer took up the challenge and…well…the world now knows who’s better 
Sonsona, who boxing experts say has powerful southpaw stance, fought in the junior bantamweight division. He defeated Jose Lopez via decision.
AYOS!
Found this video, by the way, courtesy of Queensberry Rules (check out more videos in that site too):
Hopefully, Marvelous Marvin Sonsona’s victory over Jose Lopez will further inspire our government to support local sports and athletes especially those coming from Mindanao, Philippines!
Congratulations to Team Sonsona!
