Open Workout for One FC Filipino Warriors Set on December 2

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Kevin Belingon, Eduard Folayang and Honorio Banario are three of the biggest MMA sports stars in the Philippines. They are set to hold a workout to showcase their skills this December 2, 2014 at the Fight Factory in Bonifacio Global City (BGC). These Filipino warriors are set to return to action at ONE FC: WARRIOR’S WAY, and prior to the biggest bouts of their lives, will showcase to a select group of media the new skills that they have acquired since we last seen them in the ONE FC cage.

I am honored to be among the select group of media who was invited to witness the open workout this coming Tuesday. I would get to see these fighters in person as they display their fighting prowess - a preview of their might and power that they would put into action against their opponents on the big fight night on December 5.

We last saw the representatives from Team Lakay in action in various events earlier this year, and they now return to the year-end event in Manila to cap off 2014. Eduard Folayang and Kevin Belingon can be considered title contenders, and they will be poised for a potential opportunity in the future should they overcome their respective opponents on 5 December.

My Passport Wireless: The External Storage Drive That Connects Wirelessly to Your Gadgets

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Don'y you just hate it when you are burdened with so many wires especially when you need to bring along all your gadgets for a business or leisure trip? I keep on getting confused which wire or cable belongs to which that I would sometimes mismatch them. The wires also get tangled up so you often find yourself preparing separate compartments for each wire and gadget. The worst part is when you thought you brought the right data cable only to find out later that you brought the audio cable instead when you're already in the middle of a very important data transfer task.

For the frequent business traveler to the family on a road trip or creative professional working in the field, the My Passport Wireless drive is a simple way to connect all computing and mobile devices to content without any wires or Internet connection. Additionally, when users need to transfer large amounts of data, the My Passport Wireless drive provides the option of using a high speed USB 3.0 connection.


WD, a Western Digital company and a world leader in connected storage solutions, recently unveiled My Passport Wireless, an easy to use Wi-Fi enabled storage drive that allows consumers to save, access and share stored content wirelessly with any smartphone, tablet, computer or other device.

Brandon Vera Comes Home This December 5 for One FC: Warrior's Way

Wazzup Pilipinas!

I was among those members of the media who were left intrigued when Brandon Vera, mixed martial arts (MMA) superstar, spoke Tagalog at the NBA Café last September , 2014 during the announcement of his participation in ONE FC: WARRIOR’S WAY to be held this December 5 at SM Arena. I was also feeling joyous that he would proudly carry the Filipino branding in his fights. I laughed out loud at his witty comments during the interviews that day because he seems to be a guy that you can easily hang-out and crack jokes every now and then since he obviously appreciates humor.

We are no longer surprised at all when we hear about some Filipinos who would dare change their accent the moment they land in the US, even for a short holiday. This really makes us wonder why Brandon Michael Vera, a US citizen would imprint the "alibata," which no one even remembers from their "Alaring Panlipunan" (Social Studies) days on his back for all the world to see.

He fought for 8 years in another MMA organization and one would be surprised that he was wearing the Philippine flag or its logo boldly on his shorts most of the time. Brandon was left by his Italian-American mother at age 3. One would wonder why a mother would leave albeit a handsome child who would turn out to be 6’2” with the angst to conquer the MMA world.
