    4. He’s going to fight! You don’t know what dreams can make a person do. Wag kang nega if you’ve never been in his shoes.

    7. watch his joirney love at ang ayaw ko lang ay mga commentator. pinepreempt kaya najijinx. hindi n lng hintayin muna sya magawa. hay typical hosting ng pinoy. comment after dapat at hnd before at while doing it. nakakaitita yung pag nagawa nya pasok na siya sa Top 3. Please next time huwag ganon.

    9. OMG 30 is not old! He can still do it if he trains well and takes care of himself.

      Lebron is literally 39 and is still dunking/playing in the olympics!

      Pacquiao even knocked down and won against Thurman at 41.

      Those 2 sports are way more gruelling than pole vaulting. EJ can do it too.

    1. K po. But hindi po natin alam ang plan ni God. Pwede po manalig, magpursigi, at wag magpatalo sa sasabihin ng iba. God, time after time, has blessed people who never gave up.

    2. Kahit humilata lang sya magkaka-medal sya sa Olympics? Don’t make God as an excuse!!!

    3. 4:50 bakit naman inend mo agad, Diyos ka ba? What if 2028 dun ibigay sa kanya? Kasi pinabatibay pa siya lalo ng Diyos?

  3. Well, he fought a good fight! I really thought papasok sya last jump nya. Sobrang nandun na sya!!! Pero baka it’s not his time yet. Ang laki din naman talaga ng improvement nya, kaya so proud of him!

    1. 5:46 si USA 30+ na rin sya ngayon

    2. I think he'll be 32 pagdating ng LA Olympics. Sana kayanin. Pero if you watch the performance of Sweden (world number 1) vs. that of EJ na world number 2, malayo yung skill. Malinis at effortless si Sweden compared kay EJ. Hoping na he gets better and podiun finish na next time. Si Hidilyn, na-achieve after so many tries. Let's pray na makuha na natin to sa LA.

  12. Try hard pa EJ. Each has it's own time line sana di siya na pressure kay Caloy.

    1. I think that’s the reason why he feels very disappointed now.

      Delete
  13. I hope he gets counseling or debriefing. Mabigat sa loob nya yung pagkatalo nya. Undrestandable but he needs emotional and mental health support.

    1. Prayers will always do wonder

    2. 712 oo na accla but still kaylangan nyan counseling at mental health support. Atleta yan at laging nasa training kaya kaylangan din yan mapagpahingahan.

    3. Agree. Fina follow ko si EJ since Tokyo sa ig and he always shares what’s on his mind. Mukhang devastated talaga siya. Its 4 years of training for him no

    1. Sinong pinatatamaan mo dito? And FYI lang ha, not all ng nakatapos ay classy. Marami ding bastos at walang modo.

    3. May natapoooss? Yung iba nga jan nakapangasawa na ng mayaman, wala pa rin class at breeding. Yung akala excursion at pwede magswimming sa baha.

  17. We are still proud of you, EJ! Thank you for representing 🇵🇭 with all your heart! Mabuhay ka!🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭

  18. I get him. People saying he still made us proud, or that he still brought honor will not make him feel better. He’s almost there na eh, one place nalang. And now he’ll need to wait 4 years again to try.

    I hope he gets past this really soon and that he’ll try again next Olympics. He’s really good.

    ReplyDelete
  19. Naiyak ako sa interview nya, he did his best, he's number 1 in Asia and 4th in the Olympics, that's a great achievement

  23. Nagpuyat kami ng asawa ko just to watch you and we saw naman na you did your best EJ. No need to apologize, nakikicheer at nakikinood lang kami eh ikaw for sure grabe ang sacrifices mo to reach where you are now in that field. Kudos EJ!
    We are so proud of you!

  24. Mahal ka namin EJ and we are always proud of you! If gusto mo lumaban uli 1000000% ang support namin sayo

  25. It was heart breaking you’re almost there but you did a good fight you had the same score as the third placer maybe with the execution or just really small fault I pray that you can recover quickly from this one and move on to your next plan.

    2. Do it baks if you are serious. Lagi din kasi yang ginigipit at ginagawan ng issue pagdating sa financial support sa kanya. 🙄

    3. Nagbenta yan ng shoes nya dati just to fund his training.

  28. Its ok pataas siya ng pataas ng ranking.Dati siyang pang 11 ba or 12 sa tokyo then sa Paris ngayon 4th na siya,so next Olympics may medalya na siya.

    ReplyDelete
  29. Hey, number 4 is not bad. He just missed the bronze but to be at number 4? And finished the same height as the bronze medalist? That is a big accomplishment. He’s still the pride of the Filipino people.

  30. TBH mas malakas ang sampalataya ko na si Ej ang makaka gold kesa kay Caloy nung simula ng Olympics eh but iba and dikta ng faith, our nation is still proud of you Ej, comeback strong sa next Olympics.

    ReplyDelete
  31. Watched online and cheered with many others through the end of his competition. Nakita ko rin po yung interview niya and my heart went out to him when he got emotional and said "Sorry". You represented the country well, EJ. Maraming salamat at saludo kami sa iyo.

  32. Kung ako ang mga brands, ito gugustuhin ko ring maging brand ambassador. Sana di makalimutan si EJ at ang iba pang mga athletes who represented the country.

    1. Sa true lang. Eto ang dapat may endorsement ng vitamins at big brands. He is a smart and classy guy at hindi nagkakalat even nung kasagsagan ng issue nya with his federation.

    2. 1152 true. Grabe din ang pinagdaanan nyan at mga issues na ginawa sa kanya. I was even cheering n magpalit na sya ng citizenship but hindi nya tlaga ginawa. He just works hard pa lalo.
