Manny Pacquiao is rightly so regarded as one of the greatest boxers of all time. After battling umpteen adversities, Pacquiao reached the world of ‘Sweet Science’ and, in no time, he climbed the ladders of success. His name is registered in the history books as he’s the only champion to have won titles in eight different weight classes.
