— Chot Reyes (@coachot) August 5, 2015Reyes needs no introduction after coaching the Philippines to a silver medal-finish in the 2013 FIBA Asia Championship and respectable performances in the 2014 FIBA World Cup.
The popularity of Pacquiao’s, an 8-division boxing champion and regarded as one of the most famous athletes in Filipino sports history, goes without saying.
Phillips, 53, was born at the Subic Bay Naval Station in the Philippines in 1962. He’s gone on to have a successful career in his field by winning and getting nominated for numerous motion awards.
In 2013, Phillips was awarded the 2003 Cinemanila Film Festival Lifetime Achievement Award.
