On her Twitter page, popular singer Mariah Carey said Filipino boxing hero Manny Pacquiao’s win over British Rocky Hatton was “unbelievable.”

Carey’s entries or “tweets” were announced by her Filipino fans on the social networking website Facebook.

The popular singer said: “This is quite violent.” Another entry read, “I can’t even know what to say.”

Towards the end of the fight, Carey, said Pacquiao was “unbelievable.”

Facebook was filled with shouts on Pacquiao’s victory. Some said those who viewed it on pay-per-view did not get their money’s worth because Hatton “kissed the floor” as early as Round 1 and was knocked out on Round 2.

“Talo! Talo ang mga nanood sa mga malls. Round 2 lang [Losers! Those who watched in malls lost. The match ended in Round 2],” one user said.

Other Facebook users said:

“I feel bad for Hatton. He saw the whole milky way.”

“Asar si Aling Dionisia kasi naunahan siya ni Hatton na himatayin! [Aling Dionisia was irked because Hatton fainted ahead of her].”

“Ano kayang regalo ni Pacquiao kay Aling Dionisia? “Eskenejens? [What would be Pacquiao's gift for Aling Dionisia? Skinny Jeans?]”

Pacquiao’s mother, Dionisia, has fainted on national television several times whenever Pacquiao had a fight.

“Mas matagal pa ang paghahanap ng parking kaysa laban ni Pacman. [It took longer to find a parking space than to watch the Pacman fight].”

"Panalo na naman si Chavit!” [Chavit is again a winner]," referring to former Ilocos Sur governor Luis Chavit Singson, a close supporter of Pacquiao.

“People forgot the H1N1 Virus over Pacman-Hitman fight,” another Facebook user said.
