US-Phl bilateral ties ‘sky is the limit’ — US envoy
The opportunities in the bilateral relations of the Philippines and the United States are limitless, United States Ambassador to the Philippines MaryKay Carlson said Friday. In a video posted on her Twitter account, Carlson was asked what to expect next for the US-Philippines bilateral relationship. “We're coming out of a year where we have amazing momentum and, really, the sky's the limit,” she said. The ambassador, who is celebrating her first year in the Philippines, said that Washington is looking into expanding its economic cooperation with Manila. “I think one of the things that we'll be focusing on is expanding our economic ties. We are partners in prosperity, and I look forward to doing everything possible to continue that growth in our economies,” she said. Presently, the US-Philippine bilateral ties became warmer since President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. assumed office last year. During the administration of his predecessor, former President Rodrigo Duterte, veered away from its traditional ally and developed warmer ties with America’s rival, China. Just this year, the Marcos administration approved four additional Enhanced Defense Cooperation Agreement sites in the country, to which American forces will have access. The locations of the additional four EDCA sites are in Camilo Osias Naval Base in Sta. Ana town and Lal-lo Airport in Lal-lo town, both in Cagayan province; Camp Melchor dela Cruz in Gamu, Isabela province; and Balabac, the southernmost island in Palawan province. Of the four additional EDCA sites, three are situated in the northern part of the country, with the naval base at Cagayan's Santa Ana being about 400 kilometers from Taiwan. China considers Taiwan, an ally of the US, as part of its territory, to be retaken one day — by force, if necessary. ‘Proudest moment’ Likewise, Carlson shared her “proudest moment” since she took the helm at the US Embassy in the Philippines. “Well, you know it's been really an honor for me to welcome so many senior VIP visitors to the Philippines, and be able to show them this wonderful country and the amazing people that are here,” she said. “So the vice president Secretary of State Secretary of Defense but also the ability to welcome President Marcos to Washington for a four-day amazing visit. Those are my proudest moments so far,” she added. Marcos went to the US earlier this year while US Vice President Kamala Harris visited the Philippines last November.

Floyd Mayweather Jr. responds to Conor McGregor s retirement
Over the weekend, two-division UFC world champion Conor "The Notorious" McGregor once again announced his retirement. The 31-year old McGregor (22-4 in MMA, 0-1 in Boxing), posted a photo of himself with his mother on Twitter with the caption "Hey guys I’ve decided to retire from fighting. Thank you all for the amazing memories! What a ride it’s been!" Hey guys I’ve decided to retire from fighting. Thank you all for the amazing memories! What a ride it’s been! Here is a picture of myself and my mother in Las Vegas post one of my World title wins! Pick the home of your dreams Mags I love you! Whatever you desire it’s yours ?? pic.twitter.com/Dh4ijsZacZ — Conor McGregor (@TheNotoriousMMA) June 7, 2020 This was McGregor's third retirement announcement in the last four years, with his first one coming back in 2016 and the second one in 2019. Obviously, the Irish combat sports star's first two 'retirements' were short-lived. The following day, McGregor posted a photo of a cake, presumably from his daughter, that read "Happy Retirement Daddy" on his Instagram account. While a lot of the comments were well-wishers, there was one comment that stood out, and it was from none other than undefeated boxing legend Floyd "Money" Mayweather Jr. "If I'm not mistaken, didn't you tell Mike Tyson you could be at me if we fought a second time? Now you're quitting? I thought you wanted to beat the best? Well, if you decide to come back, I will be waiting to punish you again," Mayweather Jr's comment read. Mayweather Jr. came out of retirement in 2017 to face McGregor in a professional boxing bout, the biggest combat sports event of that year. While McGregor did put up a good fight, Mayweather Jr. was able to maintain his undefeated record with a tenth-round TKO victory over the first-time boxer McGregor. Since then, McGregor has returned to mixed martial arts, falling to reigning UFC Lightweight Champion Khabib Nurmagomedov in October of 2018, and then bouncing back with a 40-second TKO of Donald Cerrone back in January. Will McGregor remain retired? Will Mayweather and McGregor share the ring once again? Only time will tell. .....»»
