Being a fan of his since 2014 (and now a friend) made me privy to his struggles, and when I say I am so mad at the higher ups in PH sports bodies (esp PH/SU) I mean it. I’m glad he’s gonna compete for fun and for himself this year 🥹
The “Jordan Clarkson isn’t Filipino” discord from non-Filipinos is fucking dumb. The amount of times Jamaicans claim ANYONE with Jamaican blood and no one bats and eye. But we can’t acknowledge our Blackipino legend who literally played for the 🇵🇭 Mens Team.
This might be the dumbest most out of touch statement.
If you go to any Filipino Street festival, I guarantee you every Jersey has Clarkson on the back. And this is BEFORE he ever even came to the Knicks.
“Brock Lesnar, I’m surprised you didn’t show your face tonight. It’s funny how I once looked up to you as a man, and now I’m questioning if you’re even a man at all. So what’s your legacy going to be? Are you going to be the man who keeps ducking forever? Because I know exactly who I am and what I’ll be remembered for. I’m The Ruler. I’m The Beast Slayer. I’m the future King of the Ring. That’s who I am. But what will you be remembered for? When it’s all said and done, I’ll be the King, and you’ll be remembered as the man who ran away from Oba Femi.”
