MPBL to crack down on game fixing

The Maharlika Pilipinas Basketball League is partnering with certain expert groups on its crack down on alleged game fixing happening inside the fastest growing regional amateur basketball league.

No less than the founder and chief executive officer Senator Manny Pacquiao is leading the fight against these anomalous acts.

“Gusto kong pangalagaan ang MPBL. Gusto kong ang tao hindi niloloko. Gusto ko ang game laging competitive. Hindi ‘yung maraming hokus-pokus. Ayaw kong niloloko natin ‘yung sambayanang Pilipino. Wina-warningan ko lang baka pagdating ng panahon mawala na kayo na parang bula,” said Pacquiao.

There were unconfirmed reports that reached the MPBL Commissioner’s Office on allegations of game fixing.

Senator Pacquiao said he’ll give a reward to people who can show proof of game fixing.

“May mga grupo na tayo na expert diyan para magsubaybay sa mga players na kahinahinala, mga taong pumapasok outside the league. Bantayan natin sila. Magtulungan na lang tayo. Kapag may nalaman tayo na information, sumbong niyo agad sa akin, ako na bahala doon,” added Senator Pacquiao.
