He's an actor, a singer, a guitar player, an elected congressman, and oh yea, a seven division world champion. Not too bad for a kid that used to sell cigarette's on the streets of General Santos City for a living. Pacquiao has risen from nothing, to the top of the world and he's done it through very hard work and dedication. Now that he is on the top, there are a few folks out there who want to knock him off. Pacquiao is the king of the hill, and until someone can step up and knock him off he will stay king of the hill.
The road to the top has not been all easy. Manny had to square off against Mexico's toughest warriors, IE Morales, Barrera, Marquez, and Mexican American Oscar De La Hoya. Instead of praising his achievements his critics look for negativity and write about that. They will write that De La Hoya was a shot fighter instead of praising Manny for soundly defeating him. They will write that Manny uses steroids, instead of praising him for his hard work in the gym. Pacquiao just keeps on rolling. When Pacquiao ran for office the first time he was soundly defeated. He showed the true sign of a champion and instead of giving up he ran again. Victory was at hand with his second attempt, and now he is an elected Congressman. I find it absolutely amazing how anyone can bad mouth this guy. The people that bad mouth Manny Pacquiao are nothing but grade A losers. One of my favorite sayings, and one that I live by is "success breeds hate" and it's so true. When someone succeeds, that's when the envious attack. Those who hate want to be at the level of those they are hating on. When people are jealous, they can't stand the fact that they have not succeeded themselves, so they attack those who have.
Pacquiao has done nothing but succeed for many years now. He's one of the nicest guys you'll ever meet, and he has not let his fame and money get to his head. Whenever I read an article from someone that remotely hates on Manny Pacquiao, I immediately shake my head and say, 'another hater, success breeds hate, and haters are a dime a dozen.'
Pacquiao keeps on rolling. He fights again in November against Antonio Margarito, a fight that most insiders say he will win. Floyd Mayweather Jr is still on his radar, but the blip isn't as bright as it used to be. Manny doesn't need Floyd Mayweather Jr. He can retire anytime he wants to at this point and have enough money for several Pacquiao family generations. He's a calm and collective type guy outside of the ring, and a two handed wrecking machine inside of the ring. He keeps on rolling, and the Pacquiao train doesn't look like it will stop anytime soon.
