Calvin Abueva apologizes to Ray Parks but not to his girlfriend, lashes out at Sol Mercado


It did not take long for Calvin Abueva to air his side regarding his spat with Bobby Ray Parks, Jr.’s girlfriend Maika Rivera during Phoenix’s game against Blackwater.

With his wife Solome at his side, Abueva went to social media platform Instagram to explain what had transpired.

“May sasabihin tayo about sa nangyari kanina sa game. Naunahan lang niya ako magpa-interview pero nandito ako. Nakausap ko yung konteng media at mali niya yung nangyari,” opined Abueva, as he aired a live video at around 10:30 pm. “Sa mga haters diyan, makinig lang po kayo para malinaw ang nangyari sa court kanina.

“Nangaasar ako oo, pero yung pambabastos, kanina lang nangyari yun dahil hindi ko po siya kilala at wala akong reason para guluhin siya. I don’t know? Sirain niya ko sa laro?” he continued.

“Kasi sikat na raw sila, siguro nagpapasikat sa akin.”

Abueva alleged that Rivera and her friends had been heckling him all game long. And it came to a boiling point when Abueva fouled out of the game with 11 seconds left in the game.

“Wala akong record sa mga pambabastos na yan. Ang akin, pang-aasar, tough picks, pero yung time na yun, nabastusan ako,” he recounted.

“Dumaan ako sa kanila ng wala ako. Nag-standing position sila, tatlo pa sila. Isang babae, bakla, tapos nagpalakpakan pa sila. Sabi sa akin, ba-bye, pakyu.

“Lahat ng teammate ko alam nila yan at nakita pa ng asawa ko. Yun po. Dun ako nadala sa kanya. Okay panalo kami, eto ka,” he narrated as Phoenix won the game 103-98.

That’s when he called Rivera the b-word and mocked her afterward.

For him, this is his way of retaliating after her cusses towards him.

“Kung mang-aasar ka, binalik ko lang pang-aasar niya. Nabastos siya pero nabastos din ako. Oo, babae siya, pero tignan niya rin kung sino ang nababastos niya. May ibang player diyan, ganun din gagawin pag nangyari yun,” he said.

Abueva then redirected his attention to Ginebra player and Parks’ good friend Sol Mercado.

Moments after the game, Mercado replied to one of Parks’ tweets, saying that he wasn’t surprised by Abueva’s antics and that the players should maintain a certain standard during these incidents.

“Yung sinasabi ni Sol, ganito na ko. Na-appreciate ko yun dahil I don’t know. Reason mo, narinig mo side nila, pero hindi mo narinig side ko,” expressed Abueva.

“Kaya shut up na lang! Don’t judge me! Stop na lang. Don’t talk.”

Still, Abueva apologized to Parks, who is six years his junior. But what he won’t do is apologize to Rivera.

“Para kay Ray Parks. Sa iyo lang ako magso-sorry. Alam ko naging okay tayo,” he said.

“Pero I don’t know your girlfriend, pero hindi ako nag-apologize dahil hindi ako nag-umpisa siya. I apologize Rayray Parks. Sa girlfriend niya, this is not my fault. Sa kanya yun,” Abueva stressed.

“Bakit mo ko mumurahin? Yun yung paliwanag ko.”
