I even admired his physique because I told him that he seems to be in perfect condition,&quot; he said, adding that Bulawan was preparing for the upcoming conference of the Philippine Basketball Association (PBA).Espiritu, however, noticed that Bulawan lost weight. &quot;Sabi ko bakit bigla kang nag-slim. Ang sabi niya nagpapakundisyon daw siya at preparing for the up and coming opening by July 15,&quot; he said.&quot;Kasi kapag pumapayat nang biglaan, medyo nagse-second thoughts ako baka mamaya kung ano &#x27;yan, baka nangangayayat dahil sa may ginagamit ka,&quot; Espiritu added.Espiritu added that Bulawan also had many personal problems -- and that his wife suffered a miscarriage.&quot;A week ago, nag-post sila, kasi parang sinasabi niya na you make us happy.
