    5. 12:38, you need to be an amateur to join the Olympics. You can’t be a pro and then join the Olympics. In his case, he’s retired and can join the Olympics but his age disqualifies him.

  2. Kaloka ka Manny. You are waaaaaay past your prime. Like really, way way way lagpas na. Learn when to quit po.

    Take a page from Beckham's book. Instead of participating as an athlete, why not train the next gen who are still young and have great potential?

    1. 12:00 korek! i'm sure he does things for philippine boxing pero sa naabot nya on a global stage, parang hindi nya ginagamit ang influence/power/money nya to institutionalize boxing sa pilipinas. he could be a boxing czar pero sarili pa rin nya binebenta nya all over.

    2. masyado kasing naging materialistic

      Delete
    3. 12:55 agree. Walang benchmarking si Manny, very minimal ang involvement niya sa mga pausbong na athletes, boxing man or hindi.

      Delete
    4. Sa laki ng expenses nila monthly, gusto pa nya kumita hehe. Theyre so high maintenance! Di ka na sana kasi nag pulitika. Di ka sana nabakante sa games. Now mag back to zero ulit ang training.

      Delete
    5. Yan din matagal ko ng thoughts. He should just create a company that trains future athletes, especially sa boxing, hindi yung sa politics niya inuubos ang pera niya. At least that way competitive pa rin siya.

    6. 12:00 Kailangan mag kayod2x ni manny kasi grabe din lifestyle nila esp his wife. If hndi sya mag work, ubos din pera nila in a few years kasi mas maliit ang ROI nila kaysa gastos.

      Delete
    7. 1:37 yes, yung wife nya..pati yung mga kapatid ni jinkee yumaman thanks to manny. Grabe din mga luho. Yes they can afford, yes it's their money but they're nothing, lalo na yung mga inlaws, if not for manny p. Baka ito yung one of the reasons bakit gusto sasali sa olympics for his family's 'wants'

    8. I'm not for him joining the Olympics. For everyone's info, meron na po sya boxing gym sa GenSan at yung Blow by Blow po sya rin nag-hahandle.
      Huwag niyong i-menos si Pacquiao. di natin maitatanggi na he put the Phils. in the world stage sa sports. Ang dami rin niya natulungan, wala na raw makakagawa ng 8 division titles niya. Lahat ng champion nilabanan niya di siya namili.

      Delete
    9. 9:00 hindi natin minamaliit ang achievements ni Pacman sa world stage, big fleshy deal yun. If anything, he is celebrated and respected for all that.

      Pero ang siste, at his age, siya pa rin ang lumalaban imbes na mag-build up ng successor nya. Nasira record biya sdahil sa mga laban na yun, nawala ba ang prestige. Lakas-amats din si kuya into thinking that the IOC will bend its rules for him. This ain't Vegas, bruh!

      Wala pang na-promote sa world stage na galing sa GenSan gym nya. The latest Pinoy boxer na sumikat after Pacman is Nonito Donaire. Pacman already paved the way, sana may pasunurin na siya sa next gen imbes na siya pa rin ang papasok sa ring.

    10. 12:00 fyi, may MP Promotion si Manny na tumutulong sa mga pilipinong boksingero like Ancajas, casimero, marcial.. implewensya din ni manny kung bakit madami tayong kapwa Filipino ang nabibigyan ng chance magcompete for world title, kahit 20 fights pa lang basta magaling nailalaban na sa world title bout. Kasi mataas na ang respeto nila sa mga pinoy boxer ngayon yan ay dahil din kay Manny. Tabi mga mema.

    11. 8:25 whatever their lifestyle, dugot pawis no Manny, DI GAYA NG MGA PULITIKONG KAWATAN.

    12. agree! nagpabugbog si Manny P. to achieve whatever he is now. He may not be perfect, but he totally deserves whatever he has now pati ng family niya. kahit nung kampanya namimigay siya ng tulong kumpara sa mga corrupt na politicians ng bansang ito

  3. give chance to other ankol Manny.. magretire ka na po

  4. Tsaka tama na di ba, Pambansang Kamao? Mapuruhan ka pa. Okay na yun mga na-achieve mo. You all made us proud. Kung sa kita ang habol, baka malugi kasi hindi na mababawi sa ticket sales ang magagastos sa katakot takot pa na promo

  5. What does he want to prove pa ba?
    We cannot have it all.

  6. 12:26 - Professional boxers were allowed to compete in Olympic Games in 2016.

  7. And to request OIC to change the rules for him is insane

  8. Ok lang yan pacman, you are already written in History books sa Philippine sports. Enjoy your earnings and achievements. You can do so much more without joining the Olympics.

  9. Manny tama na. You had your time. Dami mong gustong gawin.

    1. Bat di nya naisip noon nung nasa prime sya na bigyan ng Olympic gold ang Pilipinas? Kung kailan di na pwede idadahilan na naman para sa bansa!

    2. 2:00, wala ka idea sa pinagsasabi mo, dati bawal ang pro boxer sa olympic puro amateur lang.

  12. Masyado naman sugapa si Manny sa lahat ng bagay. Sobrang bilib sa sarili at taas ng pangarap. Pati presidency di pinalampas.

  14. Nakupo naging gahaman na. Give chance to others naman. Mas mabibilib kami kung magmentor ka nalang ng mga young talents or ung anak mo nalang ipasok mo sa olympics

  15. Sir Manny please tama na. Tigil na sana sa pakikipagcompete reitired ka na nga diba? Sana gamitin mo ang galing at influence mo sa pagkocoach sa mga aspiring athletes.

    ReplyDelete
  16. Impart mo nalang ang skills and knowledge mo sir Manny sa mga new gen athletes ng Pinas. Kulang na kulang sa trainings at coaches mga athletes natin. Why not maghelp ka nalang po magcoach ka sa Phil team wag na lumaban. Kapag natalo ka ng amateur makakasira pa yun sa tituli mong pambansang kamao.

    2. Weak mo 11:15, may weight class din sa Olympic. Research muna bago kuda.

  19. Boxing is an insanely brutal sport. Pacquiao have had received big blows in more than a thousand, if not hundreds, of rounds. Pacquiao should do his math. Not many boxers survive after 50 or 60 years of age.

    Participation in the Olympics might have serious consequences for him. Think again, Pacquiao. That is, if you still have any regard for your health and well-being or should I say, mortality.

  20. It is no longer your time and prime. Wag ka na umeksena. Wala ka na dapat patunayan.

    Kung bored ka, araw araw mo lakarin yung mga mansions mo. Baka nga kulang pa one day mo 😂😂
