'Sabi ko, tsamba,' Pacquiao trashtalks Abueva after hitting a 3 pointer on him.

The Enforcers playing-coach said he was eager to defend the Aces star, but claimed he took it easy on Abueva in a first-quarter showdown.

“Oo (gusto ko bantayan). Okay lang naman,” said Pacquiao, who played in his first game since the Philippine Cup. “Maybe next time maka ano na ako. Hindi lang... masyado akong nag ano kanina, relax-relax lang.”

Still, the boxing icon was still game enough to playfully talk trash with the reigning Best Player of the Conference in the Commissioner’s Cup.

“Sabi ko tsamba,” Pacquiao said, referring to Abueva’s three-point conversions at his expense.

He may have lost the match-up, but Pacquiao had the last laugh as Mahindra rallied in the final quarter to complete a 101-95 upset. -spin.ph
