10 Interesting #SugodManny Videos on Instagram

The heat is on! As the fight of the century--Mayweather vs. Pacquiao--draws nigh, Filipinos express their full support to their Pambansang Kamao by posting a video of their "knockout moves" on social media.

If you’ve been living under a rock in the last few days, there is a movement called #SugodManny and it’s currently spreading on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. Track the said hashtag and you will find a lot of people–celebrities, bloggers and madlang people–doing their own “knockout” moves to express their full support to Manny Pacquiao who we consider our national pride. You, too, can show your support to our Pambansang Kamao for the world to see!

The mechanics are simple. First, show your own “knockout” move. It does not necessarily have to be a punch move. It can be anything you’re good at like singing, dancing, karate stomp, taekwondo kick, acrobatic exercise, unusual talent, etc. Then upload the video of your “knockout” move on Facebook, Twitter and/or Instagram. In the caption, describe your “knockout” move and include the hashtag #SugodManny. Nominate 3 of your friends to do the same by tagging them and that’s it! You’ve done your share in boosting the Filipino fighting spirit that will eventually lead Pacman to victory.

Meanwhile, I compiled 10 interesting videos from the SugodManny hashtag and each one is unique in their own little way.
