God is Pacquiao's Weapon

There is no secret to be revealed. Being a renewed Christian and hence a Man of God, Manny Pacquiao is fighting with God as his ultimate weapon when he faces Floyd Mayweather.
This is not saying that Pacquiao has to leave entirely to the Supreme Being and Divine Creator, he has to train hard, doubly hard, and the rest is up with God for the Book of Romans succinctly said, "If God is with us, who can be against us?".
Thus, who can beat the Pacman then? Not a Mayweather who has been mighty proud of being with strippers in celebrating his birthdays and other big events of his life, flaunting his money as if everything in this world is dependent on it. Name it, everything in Mayweather's mind seemed to be all about "money" and that is a sure formula for disaster.
Alright, I am not condemning the girls and others who were perhaps just being lured with what Mayweather has gave them since not one of one of us in this world is spared from sinning but if it just about having a price tag for everything and setting aside that there is God up there, then it is a certain path towards damnation.
The cynics, the atheist, the non-believers and what have you may disagree but you see, the fact that there are only a handful of them would speak for itself.
Mayweather included, if he will not pray, if he will not invoke the name of God when he trade punches with Manny Pacquiao, he would be in trouble.
Between a boxer who reads, preaches the bible and practice what he preaches and one who loves partying and buy all the luxuries to merely satisfy his flesh and thus commit iniquities, I am without doubt would profess that the former and not the latter would prevail in the end.
It is not only absolutely cogent, in fact a no brainer, man has to cling to God. In this mundane planet, he is the comforter, provider, source of strength and power, this is what it is all about on May 2nd at MGM Grand in Las Vegas, U.S.A. and Manny Pacquiao has it. His weapon is GOD.
