“He Would Still Hold a World Title”: A Young Manny Pacquiao’s Photo From 1991 Takes Fans on a Trip Down Memory Lane

Fans get nostalgic seeing a 13-year-old Manny Pacquiao

The collage had two pictures. One had 1991 etched on it with a young Pacquiao in red boxing attire standing with his arms raised in the traditional stance. The other picture was from 2021, with a much older Pacquiao holding the same stance. More than the physical changes, the change in his status as a boxer through the years holds more importance. “Only four decade champ in the history of the sport,” said one fan reminding us of Pacquiao’s historic achievements.

“Some blokes were just made to Box & Manny is the perfect example,” said another fan who believed Pacquiao and boxing are a match made for each other.

“Currently re-watching pac man v de la hoya. Happy holidays yall,” revealed another fan who spent his holidays rewatching Pacquiao’s famous bout with Oscar De La Hoya, where Pacquiao obliterated De La Hoya.

“He would still hold a world title belt at 147 pounds…,” said another fan who claimed that Pacquiao would still be the welterweight champion.

“It’s about to be 2024 kid,” said another fan, excited to have another year of Pacquiao in boxing.

Fans continue to have faith in Pacquiao’s extraordinary abilities, and his legendary status appears to be solidifying with each passing day. If all goes well, they may soon witness another demonstration of his prowess.

Although a scheduled showdown was announced on social media, set to take place in the Middle East a few years ago, it fell through due to promoters failing to provide proof of funds.
