Manny Pacquiao
 
Wife just came home from the Philippines, and she said he is admired over there like a god.

Who is he? and what does he do.:haha:


edit: lightweight boxer.. is he pro- semi-pro?

hes one of the best ever. I honestly I think you can include his name with the likes of Ali, joe louis, sugar ray etc

Apparently the crime rate goes down in the Philippines when he fights - that's how popular he is.

^^^^thats true...there is a cease-fire when there is a fight.....

An international professional at his level doesn't even come once a generation from the philippines....thats why he's treated like a god.

I think if wrestling was real, Batista would be a bigger hero for them.. he's pretty much 2nd in line

He's part Greek, part Filipino. I agree, he's second in line to popularity in the Philippines, dunno about the pro pool players though.

thanks everyone.

if/when pacquiao fights mayweather, and beats him, i think he will absolutely be ranked near the top all time. however he never really has had the draw and fanfare of some of the more popular boxers.
