Boxer Pacquiao runs for office in a big Hummer
As world welterweight boxing champion Manny Pacquiao likes to make an entrance when it comes to his multi million pound boxing shows, he likes to create the same stage presence when it comes to running for a seat in the Phillipine congress. Hundreds of cheering fans awaited on the open air basketball courts in San Miguel as he emerged from a big bad black Hummer vehicle as he waves in a blue vest bearing the name of his political party, the People’s Champ Movement.
Blasting out the sounds of “Eye of the Tiger” from “Rocky III” Manny as he entered the stage in the Hummer, one of the world’s best pound-for-pound boxer and one of the wealthiest men in his impoverished homeland, Manny is now trying to translate his enormous appeal into votes in the May 10 election.
He commented “I don’t want to be just your boxing idol,” he told the crowd from a makeshift stage on the back of a truck. “I also want be your idol in public service.”
Many believe if Manny Pacquiao wins a seat it will be the end of the possibility for the fight every boxing fan has been waiting for against Floyd Mayweather Junior, for now Manny has mentioned he will wait until after the election to comment on the status of the proposed bout.
