Follow Us
Manny Pacquiao, the Senator of the Philippines and the only octuple world champion in boxing, is ready to embrace new heights at the age of 41.
While Pacquiao’s much-anticipated boxing return has grabbed headlines for a brief period, it is his political role that restricts him in the spot with some new angles to it.
Several reports suggest that Pac-Man might run to become the President of his country. It is no surprise, as the Senator has already been noted for his noble work. He is also billed as a messiah for the common man who has done incredible things inside and outside the boxing ring.

I'm scared with the fact that Manny Pacquiao could win the presidency in 2022. I am a great fan of him when it comes to boxing, but in politics? count me out. ❤️

Manny Pacquiao is a trapo, too.
In 2007, he announced he would run for South Cotabato 1st District Representative under the Atienza wing of the Liberal Party; however, he eventually ran under KAMPI, a pro-GMA political party, in 2010 but lost to incumbent Rep. Darlene Antonio.

Amid all this, Pacquiao’s boxing return is still at a halt. After two back-to-back wins against Adrien Broner and Keith Thurman in 2019, ‘Pac-Man hasn’t fought this year.
Even though he raised eyebrows by desiring to lock horns against Terence Crawford, the fight is still far from reality. If the 41-year-old actually opts for the Presidential election, it will postpone his return to the sport.

Pacquiao has nothing left to prove. But, a lot of fans still want him to accept a few more fights before calling it a day. A cross-promotion match against UFC star Conor McGregor is also a possibility. So, there are many reasons that can hold the octuple champion’s position in the headlines.
What do you think? Will Pacquiao become run for the President of the Philippines or is it his time to return to the squared circle?
