I have always been a fan of Manny Pacquaio. The first time he came into my consciousness is when I accidentally watched on TV his fight with then reigning Featherweight Champion Mexican Antonio Barrera. I was so surprised on how he man-handled the reigning champion who by that time is already consided a boxing legend in Mexico. The fight has to be stopped with Barrera’s brother stepping in and hugging Antonio inside the ring to stop the onslaught. See that happen in this video at the 11th round of that fight:
From then on, I followed zealously his career along with others Filipinos and Boxing fanatics around the world. He became a phenomenon as we know he is today. WIKIPEDIA has this to say about him:
Emmanuel "Manny" Dapidran Pacquiao, PLH (/ˈpæki.aʊ/pak-ee-ow; Tagalog: [pɐkˈjaʊ];[4] born December 17, 1978) is a Filipino professional boxer and politician. He is the first eight-division world champion,[5] in which he has won ten world titles, as well as the first to win the Lineal Championship in four different weight classes.[6]
He was named "Fighter of the Decade" for the 2000s (decade) by the Boxing Writers Association of America (BWAA), World Boxing Council (WBC) and World Boxing Organization (WBO). He is also a three-time The Ring and BWAA "Fighter of the Year," winning the award in 2006, 2008 and 2009, and the Best Fighter ESPY Award in 2009 and 2011.[7]
He was long rated as the best pound for pound boxer in the world by some sporting news and boxing websites, including ESPN, Sports Illustrated, Sporting Life, Yahoo! Sports, About.com, BoxRec and The Ring.[8][9] On April 2012, Pacquiao dropped to number two in the rankings, behind Floyd Mayweather, Jr.[10] However on May 7, 2012, The Ring declared the top position vacant and jointly ranked Pacquiao and Mayweather in the number two spot.[11]
Aside from boxing, Pacquiao has participated in acting, music recording and politics. In May 2010, Pacquiao was elected to the House of Representatives in the 15th Congress of the Philippines, representing the province of Sarangani.[12]
