    MANILA, Philippines – Within just a week of using the social networking site Twitter, boxing superstar Manny Pacquiao threatened to delete his account because of comments criticizing his grammar.

    Over the weekend, Pacquiao tweeted: "I think I have to delete my account and stop it I know I can't pls. Everybody thanks everyone."

    "Ayaw ko lang kasi na niloloko ang mga fans that's it thanks," he added.

    Pacquiao said he opened a Twitter account last week to update his fans worldwide on his activities.

    The Fighter of the Decade issued an apology to his fans.

    "Humihingi po ako ng paumanhin sa lhat... pro hndi ako nagttampo tlagang ganon may mga tao tlagang iba ang utak," he said.

    Earlier, a fake Twitter account of the boxer surfaced but the Sarangani congressman said he was not using the account.

    Fans cry 'No!'

    Pacquiao's fans asked him not to delete his account.

    "No sir Manny.. .twitter is one way to express yourself.. .everyone of can't please everybody.. Many people are supporting you!' tweeted user chuzlee.

    "Your english is too good to be *mannypacquiao's! guess what, i love your 'genuine' english; it's not flawless but you're proud of it," said pilyosopo.

    Pacquiao is 2 months away from his clash against former world champion "Sugar" Shane Mosley.

    The Filipino will defend his World Boxing Council super welterweight belt at the MGM Grand Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada. – By Barry Viloria, abs-cbnNEWS.com

    In one university in Mindanao, my cousin is an English professor. One day, she got the chance to talk to her student whose grammar was just so bad. My cousin asked the student: you are now in college, how come your English grammar is still bad. He answered in our vernacular. Nah, Maam kung pirmi lang ko mag study ug English ug di ko mamaligya ug ukay-ukay, di ko kapalit ug bag-o na sakyanan. Di pud ko kapa enrol diri, Maam.

    Tinood jud.

    My cousin has an impeccable command of the English grammar, it took her years and with the help of our aunt to get a new car.

    exactly the same thing i told my wife just this morning on the way to the office . . .kasi ngayon daw e mas magaling nang mag-english ang mga anak ni pacman kesa sa kanya--dapat lang since nasa brent sila

    para sa akin, ignorante yang mga kumukutya sa english ni manny--it's not his fault

    kung bilyonaryo ka tulad ni manny, me sarili kang dialect, walang grammar grammar, pero kung di kapa milyonaryo lumebel muna...

    though i don't agree with irresponsible english as some commedian do on TV show (which are being followed by teens) example of this is patani, i hate her trying hard accent and making fun of speaking in english where she can down right speak in tagalog or her native language, it is very demoralizing for pinoy to do such thing.

    Conyos speak up using slang english which shouldn't be, you dont mix english with tagalog even when you are just interviewing somebody, many talk show host even kris aquino do this...=(

    At ilang call center agent na meron ng kayamanan tulad ni Manny? Or accomplished like Manny? At kelan naging flawless in English ang basihan sa pagiging tao? Dami lang talaga nasobrahan sa hangin sa ulo.

    Like parrots taught in School X. They speak english fluently and with diction. Kung alam lang sana ng marami na "parrot speak" sila.

    I'd rather read bad english grammar rather than text-speak. Buti na lang bawal dito sa tsikot. I really hate it when I receive messages like that.
