MARTIAL artists Ferdinand “Papa Goat” Munsayac and Rodrigo “Ninong D'goat” Celones were awarded by the Filipino Martial Artist [FMA] Sultan ng Sining recently in Antipolo City.
Munsayac, owner and president of Juego Todo, received the award for making Juego Todo as the world’s first ever Filipino Martial Arts Hybrid Sport platform recognized as a professional sport under Games and Amusement Board.
Juego Todo, which started in 2014 is now recognized by 57 nations.
Meanwhile, Celones was cited as the FMA Hall of Fame 2026 for Sultan ng Sining for “recognizing excellence and commitment in Philippine Martial Arts.”
Celones, a retired US Navy Police CMAA, LEO & security instructor, received his award as Arnisador representing Siparnis & Juego Todo.
Celones said that “replace jealousy with inspiration.”
“When you recognize greatness in others, it is only because that same greatness exists within you!” he said.
Celones said that you must “embrace winner's energy.”
“Whether you win or lose, shake hands and look your opponent in the eye. You want to capture that positive energy and make it your own!” he added.
Celones said that “success is nothing without connection.”
“It is lonely at the top! Being successful is empty if you don't have friends and family to celebrate it,” said Celones.
Munsayac and Celones are hosts of the “Goatism Friday Night Live.
