MANILA, Philippines-- Filipino fans were amazed by Manny Pacquiao's knockout defeat to Juan Manuel Marquez, dampening the spirit of a country battered by an effective typhoon that killed even more than 600 people in the southern region where the boxing champion lives. In New Bataan township, which was ravaged by Typhoon Bopha last week, refugees, rescuers and assistance employees took a break from a grueling look for bodies and survivors to watch the fight on a big TV screen-- only to be let down by their hero's sixth-round knockout. The fight occurred Saturday night in Las Vegas, or Sunday in the Philippines. Town spokesman Marlon Esperanza stated hundreds of villagers, many of whom lost their houses to dirt - and rock-laden flash floods, packed the regional gym made use of as a short-term shelter. Numerous had wished Pacquiao would victory and share his profits with the typhoon victims.
