I am sure that all Filipinos around the world know the name of Manny "Pacman" Pacquiao. He is currently the undisputed, "pound per pound" champion of the world, and was described as "devastating!"
Rose from abject poverty to being the richest boxer in the world today. What is most amazing is that he does not flaunt his wealth and achievements. Although developed by now, he remains modest, in fear of God, and respect for opponents and fans. Let's look at another story, "rags to riches" and we peek at the success story of Mani.
Born Emmanuel "Manny" Dapidran Pacquiao on December 17, 1978 in Kibawe, Bukidnon in Mindanao here in the Philippines. Left Manny Pacquiao was born to the family of a typical Philippine poverty-stricken, and the elementary school when his father left his mother to be with another woman. As a school boy, he helped his mother by selling bread and homemade cakes are selling in the streets of the city of General Santos.
As a young boy, and his interests in boxing, Manny already. When not roaming the
streets to sell his goods, will be seen to visit the nearby villages and other towns to compete for the boxing matches especially during the performances the town for a reward of P150 only (~ U.S. $ 3) for the winners and P100 (~ 2 U.S. dollars) for the loser. The money gets to be a great help to his mother to support their living expenses.
Pacquiao began his professional boxing at the age of 16 in 106 lbs. With agility and strength in boxing, and won many battles for boxing. One day, and got a call from one of boxing personalities to go to Manila to hone his skills in boxing. Did not hesitate and asked perimission of his mother Dionisia, who refused later to give its approval of it that says Mani boxing is a sport that can be brutal to pose a threat to much of his life. With passion in boxing, Manny still went on and sailed to Manila to continue his training.
In Manila, and the training of Manny the same dedication. Battles in the boxing early on, he kept on winning, but unfortunately, just like other boxers are not
known at the time, he earns a little money who wins it and that was not enough for him to send money to his mother. To increase his income, he works later in the same gym where he trained the employee to do gardening, cleaning and sometimes in doing the construction work while pursuing his career in boxing.
Mani had such amazing dedication in his training, which trains boxing like there was no tomorrow. Every day he woke up in the shortest time, and when you leave all the others already left. With its commitment, made one of the ten consecutive victories before the first loss to Rustico Torrecampo his career in the February 9, 1996.

Mani went on to defend his title and then with the new configuration of coach Freddie Roach in the gym, Wild Card, improve the speed of hand and mental preparation. He admitted afterwards that he would be world champion when he defeated Marco Antonio Barrera with a TKO in round 11th. Since then, the battles in the empty streets of Manila and all other cities send people to their homes to watch the battles making zero relevant criminal occurrence in the country during the struggle.
