NEW YORK - Boxing superstar Manny Pacquiao took a break from training camp in the Philippines last weekend to distribute food and supplies to hundreds of people who have been affected by the country's worst flooding in 40 years.
Promoter Bob Arum said Friday that the back-to-back storms mostly missed the pound-for-pound king as he trains in Baguio for his highly anticipated fight next month against Miguel Cotto.
Arum said that Pacquiao left his camp last Saturday and drove through the rain to Manila, where he helped with the disaster relief Sunday.
Pacquiao is the Philippines biggest star, his following so fanatical that hundreds of people tail him during his morning runs. Many expect him to eventually run for president after he finishes boxing.
